Suk Dosanjh: April 29, 1967 – August 4, 2010

Aug. 10, 2010 – It is with great regret that we announce the passing of Suk Dosanhj. Suk had been a part of the rental business for many years, working at the Cat Rental Store in Langley, British Columbia, and recently as a director on the board of the Canadian Rental Association's B.C. chapter. Suk passed away of a heart attack on August 4, 2010.

Don McEachern of the Cat Rental Store worked with Suk for the last six years.

"Suk was a dedicated sales professional with a  strong work ethic and a passion for the business. He delivered a straightforward honest approach, never compromised his integrity or values for success," says McEachern. "For an industry based on relationships and providing solutions for customers, he did it better than most. Suk's huge smile and larger than life personality was well-known in the industry, and few that ever met him ever forgot him."

Jim Clipperton is the president of the CRA B.C. chapter. He recalls Suk as a well-known and well liked member of the industry.

"He was the kind of guy, as soon as he walked into the room, you knew you would be smiling or laughing in a few minutes," says Clipperton. "He was great to have on the board, because he was great at getting people to come out to events."

Suk is survived by his wife, Stacey, and their two children, Dylan and Hailey. An education fund has been started by a number of local rental professionals. A number of donations have already been made, and the proceeds from the silent auction held during the annual CRA B.C. golf tournament will be donated this year. Those wishing to donate to the education fund should contact Jim Clipperton at jim@nor-val.com.
