Grant Louden – Skyline Helicopters Founder

HAC is very saddened to announce the passing of one of HAC’s own – Grant Louden, of Skyline Helicopters Ltd.

Grant was an outspoken member of HAC’s Board of Directors for over five years.  Grant’s commitment to the industry and to HAC will be greatly missed.  He had a passion for the helicopter industry, and for the people in it.  He clearly relished contact with others in the helicopter community, and whether it was in his business life or his social life, he was a hard man to keep up with. He gave his energy tirelessly to volunteer efforts on the Board – improving safety, and the circumstances in our industry – and particularly in the Oil & Gas helicopter operations community.

A funeral service will be held at 15:30 local in Kelowna BC on Saturday February 1, 2014

The service will be held at First United Church at 721 Bernard Avenue
(the corner of Ritcher and Bernard) in Kelowna.

A celebration of Grant’s life will follow.

Condolences can be sent through the website of the funeral home at www.everdenrust.com
