In Celebration of

Desmond Brian Soltendieck

June 8, 1954 -  October 14, 2019

With tremendous sadness, we announce the passing of Desmond Soltendieck, beloved father to Katelynn, Tessa and Devon, “Gampa” to Avery Ray, and brother to Steven, Christian and Julian.

Desmond was a gentle, loving and compassionate family man who’s kindness was only surpassed by his moral compass. Desmond prided himself on his dedication to family, capturing “Kodak Moments” and always being someone you could rely on to show up for you. As we grieve his loss, we are thankfully reminded of all the loving memories that will live on in us for the rest of our lives.

A celebration in Desmond’s memory will be held on Monday October 21st 2019 at 11 am at the Mount Royal Funeral Complex, 1297 Chemin de la Forêt, Outremont, H2V 2P9, 514-279-6540.

Dear Gail, Devon, Kaitlin and Tessa,
We were all deeply saddened to learn from Julia, yesterday, of the news of Desmond’s sudden passing. We remember him fondly when we lived in Dorval, when our children attended Dorval Elementary School together. We loved that our children often played together and we always welcomed Desmond into our home when he would come by to pick up Kaitlin. We remember him as a caring, sincere person who engaged earnestly in our conversations. We also knew him as a wonderfully involved Dad in the lives of his children and it was very touching to hear this confirmed today during the children’s’ eulogies. We are praying for all of you during this difficult time and we encourage you to remember those wonderful moments with your Dad that will bring you comfort in the days ahead. You will never forget him and YOU are his legacy. Your choices in Life will be influenced by the actions and values learned from your Father and we know that he will live in your hearts always! Sincerely, Calvin & Helen Tuitt
