Maxwell Harvard “Harv” Troskey
-
We regret to advise of the death of Maxwell Harvard “Harv” Troskey peacefully in his sleep at home in White Rock, BC on 18 June 2010 at the age of 96.
Harv was born in Raymore, SK. He was a WW II veteran who served as an officer with the Royal Canadian Engineers in Europe. After the war, he worked in construction starting with Bird Construction in Vancouver as an estimator and ultimately as Vice President. He was involved with many varied projects including the Interprovincial Pipeline with Lockerbie and Hole in the 1950's; moving the old town of Aklavik, NT to the new city of Inuvik; the Kaiser Coal project in Crow's Nest Pass; the Pacific Center in Vancouver and while in retirement, the Waikiki Sunset high-rise condominium in Honolulu, Hawaii.
At Harv’s request, there will be no funeral, no memorial, and no flowers. Donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the charity of one's choice.{gdOct2015kh}
