DENNIS EVANGELOS

DENNIS EVANGELOS
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, uncle, and friend.
Dennis was born on June 30, 1939, to Caroline and John Evangelos in Medicine Hat, Alberta. He attended Notre Dame College, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Social Work. After graduation, he moved to Red Deer, Alberta, where he met the love of his life, Anita Gail
“Blondie/Gailzy” Fairbairn. They were married on June 1, 1963, and together they had two daughters, Pam and Nicole.
Dennis began his career as a Social Worker, dedicating himself to caring for those in need. He later worked as a Pharmaceutical Representative before moving into real estate, where he became the number one salesperson in Canada for several years. He then created a successful home building company before eventually founding his own home security business, which he successfully operated for over 40 years.
Dennis was an exceptional person bright, incredibly kind, and full of compassion. He had a wonderful sense of humour and a natural talent for making people feel loved and valued. He was truly cherished by all who knew him.
A man of many interests, Dennis enjoyed pottery, photography, stained glass, gardening, and caring for animals with unmatched devotion. He loved to cook (specifically his world famous spaghetti), but his greatest passion was music especially playing his guitars and getting together with his Notre Dame friends to sing and jam. Dennis was predeceased by his parents, Caroline and John Evangelos; his sister, Avanthia (Joe) Swan; his younger brother Regas (Val) Evangelos; and his younger brother, Constantine Christos “Chris” (Doris) Evangelos, who passed away just one day after Dennis, on September 8.
He is lovingly remembered by his wife, Gail; his daughters, Pam (Geoff) and Nicole (Laine); and his five grandchildren: Brendan, Sean (Kaylem), Kiera, Sarah and Mya.
The world was a better place with him in it.
A Celebration of Life will be held at the Royal Glenora Club, 1160 River Valley Rd NW, Edmonton on October 24, 2025 at 1:00 PM.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to your local SPCA or Humane Society in Dennis’s memory. Special thanks to Dr. Dusang and the nurses, and amazing staff at Heritage House, Sherwood Park.

JACK SNEDDEN

JACK SNEDDEN 1933 – 2025
It is with profound sadness that the family of Jack Snedden announces his peaceful passing on September 9th, 2025, at the age of 91, surrounded by his loved ones. A beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend, Jack will be remembered as a pillar of his community. His life was defined by quiet service, deep community connections, and a love that continues to inspire.
Born in Rosetown, Saskatchewan, on October 26, 1933, to Ruth and Herbert Snedden, Jack’s early years were spent on his grandparents’ farm, where he learned the values of hard work and dedication. He later moved to Lethbridge, where he completed his schooling and developed the strong work ethic that would shape the rest of his life.
Jack’s passion for higher learning led him to graduate from the University of Alberta’s dentistry program in 1956, at the age of 22. Shortly thereafter, he began his long and successful career at the “Dental Clinic” in Medicine Hat, eventually opening River Centre Dental Clinic, in 1979. Over the course of his 43-year career, Jack not only provided expert care to his patients but also mentored many young members of the dental team, always demonstrating compassion, patience, and commitment to excellence.
Jack’s greatest legacy lies close to home. A devoted family man and respected community member, he was known for his kindness, generosity, and unwavering support.
As Chairman of the Board Jack supported the transformational growth of the Medicine Hat College overseeing the opening of the current campus during his tenure. His leadership extended to many aspects of the community as he served with distinction in numerous organizations, including the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park Association, the Kinsmen Club, the Rotary Club of Medicine Hat, the Medicine Hat Curling Club, the Alberta Dental Association, the Community Foundation of Southeastern Alberta, and ACCESS, among countless other volunteer efforts. Jack (with Carol as co-chair) was also instrumental in organizing and leading various provincial and federal political campaigns, further demonstrating their deep commitment to the betterment of their community. His lifelong dedication to service reflected both his zest for life and his passion for building lasting relationships and fostering a sense of belonging. Through his service, he forged many lifelong friendships.
Jack was born with an adventurous spirit that never dimmed. You would find him climbing to the peaks of mountains, casting lines in alpine lakes, hunting with his dog at his side, and travelling to some of the furthest corners of the globe. He was an outdoorsman in the truest sense of the word.
Jack is survived by his loving wife of 69 years, Carol, who stood by his side for every achievement and adventure. He will also be remembered by daughters Shann Snedden, Megan Fischer, and Lisa Mackey (Jim); son-in-law Stuart Barvir (Marie); and grandchildren Kady Fischer, Erica Hunter (Randy), Sarah Mackey, Drew Barvir, Jillian Barvir, and Erin Mackey. He was predeceased by his parents and daughter Marty Barvir.
Though we mourn his passing, we also celebrate the extraordinary life Jack lived. Jack’s family finds comfort knowing his spirit lives on in the gardens he cultivated, the lives he touched, and the stories we will continue to tell.
The celebration of his life will take place Friday, September 19th, 2025, at 1:00PM in the PATTISON FUNERAL HOME & CELEBRATION OF LIFE CENTRE with Life Celebrant David Townsend officiating. The service will be live streamed. Those who wish to attend virtually, please visit Jack’s obituary page for the link. Those who wish to remember Jack with a donation may do so through the Community Foundation of Southeastern Alberta: Jack & Carol Snedden & Family Fund.
