BANNS Stoke Singh. Jan 7, 1934 ~ July 17, 2011. We sadly announce the passing of Stoke Banns, affectionately known as Bobe, Stokey Bear, and Tokey. Greatly missed and lovingly remembered by all whose lives he touched, his partner, children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews and friends who meant so much to him. A big man both in stature and spirit, Stoke will live on in our hearts. Service was held August 2, at Maple Ridge Funeral Chapel.
