It is with deep sorrow that we announce the sudden passing of Edgar Streich on Saturday, April 11, 2015 in Marysville at 82 years of age.


Edgar was born on February 4, 1933 in Kimberley. While Eggy was well known for his music and painting, he was also very handy using a welding torch.


Edgar is survived by his daughters: Marilynne (Neil) Cook, Sharon (David) Blume, Jan (Brian) Hamilton, and Yvonne (Eric) Hellmen; grandchildren: Elizabeth (Russ), Sarah, Jessie (Kurt), Avril, Mathew, Natasha, Dylan and Sydney (Mitch); great great grandchildren: Adrianne, Kaleb and Nora; and many relatives and friends. He was predeceased by his wife Shirley in November of 2009.


A Celebration of Edgar’s Life will be held on Saturday, April 25, 2015 at 1:00 pm at McPherson Funeral Home in Cranbrook. Those wishing to make a memorial donation in Eggy’s honour may do so to the charity of their choice.
