The family of Wolfgang "Wolf" Ilmer is deeply saddened to announce his passing on Tuesday, May 17, 2022, at the age of 69 years.
Wolf was born in Germany and grew up in Comox, BC. He moved to Prince Rupert, BC, in the mid 1980's, where he spent many years as a High School Teacher. Following his retirement in 2013, he then moved to Grande Prairie, AB.
