FORSMAN, Ron “Barney”
Posted: October 7th, 2023
RONALD “BARNEY” FORSMAN 1955 – 2023 Ron “Barney” Forsman of Lethbridge, passed away in his home of natural causes on Tuesday, September 5, 2023, at the age of 67 years.
Barney’s entire career was spent at Canada Post, retiring in 2008 after 34 years (and not a moment to soon, to hear him say it). He had many interests, music being foremost, growing beautiful flowers, especially orchids, and he was a big fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs. He played floor hockey and golfed with an irrepressible group of characters who would become like family. Barney never met a puff he didn’t like or a nickel he wouldn’t spend on others or himself.
Although he faced many trials in his life, Barney always met them head on, living his life in his own unique way.
Special thanks to his Decapo caregivers, especially Cheryl and neighbors, and Pepe his crib partner.
He is survived by his brother Ken (Lena); three nephews; one niece; his sister-in-law; his cat Florence and a small circle of true friends.
He was predeceased by his mom Mia, Dad Floyd and brother Don.
A come and go Celebration will be held on Barney’s birthday, Sunday, October 15, 2023, from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm at 1820, 2A Avenue North.
