Dr. Bruce Mohr.

It is with profound sadness that the family of Dr. Bruce P Mohr announce his passing on May 28, 2023 at the age of 66 after a long and courageous battle with depression.

Bruce was born on April 20, 1957 in St. Boniface Manitoba and raised in Brighton Ontario. Bruce had a full life, rich in experiences, friends, and family. He was a natural athlete, a talented musician, an accomplished physician and passionate teacher. Above all else, he will be remembered as a family man who valued time spent with loved ones, particularly in the great-outdoors. Bruce will be deeply missed by his family and community.

He is survived by his parents, Willard and Mary, his daughter Holly (Max), his brothers Paul (Natalie) and Brian, his nephews Aaron and Andrew and his grandson Jackson, who adored him.

Bruce left us all far too soon, but the impact he had on his family and community will be felt forever. Those who knew Bruce know he was a cherished part of many circles thanks to his multiple passions in life; from his music to medicine and everything in between.

The family wishes to thank each and every person who made up those circles that he loved so much. The years of skiing, biking, jamming and paddling truly brought him so much joy. A celebration of life is being planned and details will be made available soon. In the meantime, honour Bruce by appreciating simple pleasures: breathing the fresh outdoor air, being physically active, and spending time with friends and family.

A celebration of life is scheduled for Sat., July 8 at 4 p.m. at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler. All are invited to attend, and a link to join virtually will also be made available.

"Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us everyday."
