Obituary of Raymond Edward Joseph Lambert

LAMBERT, Raymond 1933 - 2018 Raymond's death occurred on May 10, 2018 at the Dr. F. H. Wigmore Regional Hospital in Moose Jaw. He is survived by his four children: Rae-Lynn (Ray), Mark (Sherry), James (Lisa) and Thomas (Michele), numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He was predeceased by his parents - Agnes and Edward and three brothers - Denis, Roger and Marcel. Raymond lived in his cabin at Palliser Park (Riverhurst - Lake Diefenbaker) for many years where everyone there knew him as "coveralls" as that was his apparel of choice. For the last few years he lived in Central Butte. He played competitive softball and hockey as a young man and later as a senior he played racquetball and won many competitions and was nicknamed "Panda". He loved fishing and hunting, playing cribbage and was happy to take money off anyone who would play with him. He was known to be extremely lucky. In keeping with Raymond's wishes, there will be no funeral service. The family will hold a "wake" to honor his memory this summer in Riverhurst. In lieu of flowers, a memorial donation to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Canadian Diabetes Association would be appreciated.
