This fund was established in loving memory of Arnie Vered.

Arnie Vered passed away on Friday, July 4 with his family at his bedside. Arnie was a respected local business leader, a tireless community volunteer and most importantly: a proud husband and father. We will miss him dearly and we are grateful to have been able to call Arnie a friend.

The Cancer Foundation presented its highest honour to Arnie: The Rabbi Reuven P. Bulka Award. This prestigious award was created “in celebration of the man whose inspiring leadership and unselfish dedication to this community has so significantly improved the lives of cancer patients and their families”, and although it refers to the wonderful Rabbi Bulka, those words could apply equally to Arnie’s role in being one of this community’s greatest Cancer Champions.
