Obituary of Nick Peter Tataren

Nick Peter Tataren
June 21, 1946 – December 9, 2024

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Nick Tataren, age
78, at his home in Maple Ridge, BC after long-fought battle with ALS.

One word to capture Nick’s spirit is love. Nick met the love of his
life, Marnie, in 1962 at St. James Anglican Church, where he was a
server and Marnie sang in the choir. Nick and Marnie were married in
1967 and started putting down their roots. Nick loved his family deeply
and cherished his friendships. Nick was very proud of his family, and he
would take every opportunity to celebrate their milestones and
achievements. Especially if there was an opportunity to dance. Nick was
a dedicated husband, father, papa, and friend.

After a career spanning 40+ years at Pacific Press and climbing the
ranks from paper delivery boy to Circulation Manager, Nick retired in
February 2011 with many life-long friendships. In his golden years, Nick
enjoyed travelling with family and friends, playing golf, gardening,
spending time with loved ones, and catching up with old friends.

Nick is survived by his loving wife Marnie, brother Roger (Susan)
Tataren, children Jason (Alan) Tataren and Lori (Wayne) Haynes, and
grandchildren Madison (Andrew) Thomas and Ryley Haynes.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Nick’s memory to the ALS
Society of BC.
