Hello Mende family. So sorry to hear of Mr. Mende passing.

Many fond memories of the PG days. But I will always remember the countless rides home from Beavers or Cubs in the middle of winter when he would stop at an empty parking lot to do donuts in the snow for us! He always seemed to make us laugh.

All the best.

Steve B and family.

Mi mas sentido pésame, estamos extrañando a Tio Volker, especialmente Damaris, quien tenia un sentimiento especial para El, ver siempre el amor cuando lo abrazaba y deseaba verlo quedará en nuestro recuerdo siempre, especialmente la última vez que compartimos juntos en el Expresso Polar el 30 de Noviembre de 2019.

Descanse en Paz

Dear Bonnie,

I saw Volker's notice of his untimely passing in the paper. I want to send you love and condolences at this difficult time. I hope gathering your family together will offer some measure of comfort. I know many in Banff will be carrying you in their hearts.

My dear Big sis Jess, I’m so, so sorry for your family’s loss. I will always remember our visit to banff, and Volker had that exact same big smile on his face as we sat and visited over coffee. We, of course, also had to take Seamus for a long walk. That visit, with your parents, is one I’ll always cherish in my memory. All my love to you and your whole family.

I will always remember my first visit to Squirrel Street. Volker and Bonnie welcomed me with open arms and I felt immediately at home. Seeing Volker walk Jess down the aisle in Canmore was a memory I will never forget. Truly a special person with a special family. Lots of love this holiday season. <3

Jess and family - I’m so sorry for your loss especially so close to Christmas. Jess - I can just hear you reading this obituary to me with that spunk that I’m certain your dad loved so much. Love and prayers to the Mende family xo - Christie Schipper

i remember Volker in Banff. It was such a great time of my life. Chico was my pal at the elementary school. I am glad Volker is in a happy place
