It is with great sadness that the family of Norman (Mort) Mortenson announce the passing of their father and friend on October 30, 2014.
Mort was born on December 12, 1942 in the small town of Spalding, Saskatchewan. After completing his schooling Mort moved to Prince George, where he began his career in the plumbing/pipefitting trade. On July 24, 1976, Mort married his soul mate Glenda and together they raised their family. They moved to Bowden where they remained for the rest of their time together.
Mort is predeceased by his loving wife Glenda, his parents Peter and Cora, brothers Lloyd, Obert, Vernon & Ken and sisters Yvonne, Ruby & Peggy. Mort is survived by his brother Joe (Cecile), daughter Brenda (Sheldon), son Edward (Jill), grandchildren Michael, Ashlea & Maple-Jade and an additional grandchild in the spring and his great grandchildren Jayden & Makayla.
We will miss you Dad, rest in peace. Give Mom a hug from all of us.
