On Thursday, March 18, 2010, Allan Frederick Whitmore passed away peacefully at Kamloops at the age of 62 years.

He survived by his loving mother June Helwig and step-mother Shirley Whitmore; his three brothers Fred Jr. (Vicki), Ed (Lena) and Ted (Diane) and sister Gloria (Ray), as well as many nieces and nephews.

Allan was predeceased by his father Fred Whitmore Sr.
Allan was a big man, with a big heart. When the cards were dealt, Allan played them, and he played them hard.

In his early 20's Allan worked for the Forest Service and in 1976 started in the taxi cab business with his father. Allan was a proud member of the "Taxi Cab Family" for many years in Kamloops until his retirement. Allan's mother, June Helwig was moved to Overlander Extended Care Home in Kamloops a few years ago and Allan made every effort to make sure her needs were looked after. He would visit with his mother on a daily basis when he was feeling up to it and thoroughly enjoyed being by her side.

Allan loved music, and enjoyed playing his guitar for the many parties that were held with his family and friends.

Allan was a "True Bachelor" and lived life to it fullest. He was a calm, affectionate man and loved to spend time "having a good time".

Good-bye, big fella, we will miss you...

Should friends desire, donations to the S.P.C.A. 1211 8th Street, Kamloops, B.C. V2B 2Y3 in memory of Allan would be appreciated
