It is with sadness and also thankfulness for peace and rest, that we announce the passing of Conrad Thiessen on February 7, 2024 in St. Catharines, ON.

Conrad was born June 11, 1955 to Conrad and Clara Thiessen. He is survived by his wife Mary, beloved partner of 46 years, his children Amanda & Scott Wallace and Emily & Drew Unruh, and his granddaughters, Penny, Reid and Genevieve. Conrad was brother to Klara & Mick Spaxman and Anna Wiens and brother-in-law to Laura (Helmet), Agatha (Al), Theresa & Frank, Jack & Laverna, Elsie & Don, Peter & Gabe, Eleanor & Bruce.

Conrad was a truck driver all his life and loved the open road. Whether hauling yachts with ATL, helicopters with IMT, or recycled paper with Baker Trucking, he took pride in his work and made many amazing friends along the way.
