Liam was born in Taber February 21, 1995 and lived in Taber all his life.
He attended St. Patrick's School, Central School, D.A. Ferguson Middle
School and W.R. Myers High School.
Liam was active in Soccer, being part of the Southern Alberta Summer Games
championship team for 14 and under in 2009. He was also an accomplished
swimmer. Liam loved school and was fond of all of his teachers. He won
numerous academic awards and honors, the most prestigious being the D.A.
Ferguson Middle School Steve Lucas Memorial Award in 2007.
Liam was very active in the performing arts. He played in the D.A. Ferguson
and W.R. Myers school bands and participated in musical theatre, the
highlight of which was playing the lead in The Music Man. He took an
interest in woodwork over the last two years, finding another creative
activity he loved. Liam was also Vice-President of the W.R. Myers student

heraldry and all things British.
Liam was hard working, dedicated, energetic and intelligent. He reflected
positiveness and beauty that people surrounding him picked up and reflected
back. He could make people feel they were valued. He made being uncool or

We little knew that morning,
God was going to call your name,
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
You did not go alone.
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories,
Your love is still our guide.
And though we cannot see you,
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
As per Betty‚s request, there will be no funeral service. Flowers are gratefully declined. Those who wish, memorial donations may be made to the Jack Ady Cancer Centre, 960 19 St. S, Lethbridge, Alberta T1J 1W5.
Rest in peace Mom. We will always love you. Give Dad and Eddy a hug from all of us
