In loving memory of Stan Emms, who passed away on Sunday, May 16, 2021 at the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre.
Stan is survived by his wife Angela Lands, siblings; Carolyn (Ron) O’Neil, Johnny (Pauly) Emms and Don (Gwen) Emms as well as nieces and nephews.
Stan is predeceased by his parents Stan and Belva Emms and siblings Hazel Emms and Diane Gillet.
Stan loved the outdoors. He was often fishing, hunting and gardening. He often visited Eagle Lake for the nature and of course family. He considered it his second home.
He was an avid sports fan. He enjoyed watching baseball and his favourite hockey team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. He also played hockey, jogged and lifted weights.
Stan worked for a great company in Thunder Bay, ON; Nordmin Engineering LTD. As a Consulting Specialist and Department Manager in Mining. This career allowed him to travel all over.

May 20, 2021 at 12:21 amAlthough I worked with Stan for only 2-1/2 years, he and I had a connection that made it seem like we had known each other for decades. Stan was passionate about his work and his knowledge about mining was unparalleled. He was also an inspiration during his challenges over the past few years. To call him one of the toughest people I’ve ever met is not an understatement. Good travels my Friend.
