It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Mike Elliott on December 1, 2024 at St. Paul’s Hospital after a brief illness.

Lovingly survived by his wife Jennifer Rogerson, brother Patrick Elliott and mother Maria Elliott and many more family and friends

He grew up in the Fraser Valley and attended Mennonite Educational Institute, and then went on to complete a Political Science Degree at SFU.  Throughout his scholastic career, he supported himself through hard work and perseverance, thus developing a very strong work ethic and drive for success.  He loved to regale us with stories of his many adventures while working at the Keg and Save-On-Foods.

Mike began his financial career at RBC as a Portfolio Manager and transitioned to TD Wealth as the co-founder of The Charter Group.  Using the exceptionalism garnered through his earlier life experiences, Mike’s dedication and commitment to his clients and colleagues ensured that his career flourished at TD Wealth.  It was his life’s work to assist his clients in achieving their financial goals.  He was also a Rotarian and a member of the Langley Chamber of Commerce.

Outside of work Mike loved to mountain bike.  There was no where he would rather be than climbing a hill on his beloved bike.  No matter the weather, Mike could be found biking at SFU or at Whistler.  He had many friends in the biking community whom he cherished. He encouraged his wife to take up his passion for mountain biking, she now shares this love and will continue to climb all the hills ahead of her, thinking of him always.

The family would like to thank Dr. Howard Lim for his excellent care and compassion.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you donate to Canadian Blood Services (even consider donating blood), please click on this LINK. Or, make a donation to your local food bank.

The Celebration of Life and reception will be held on Tuesday December 10, 2024 at 1:30 pm at St. Nicholas Parish Centre in Langley (20675 87 Avenue, Langley).

Hi Jennifer, I attended Mike’s service on Tuesday as he was so good to me handling my finances after my husband passed away very suddenly as well. He was caring and compassionate and I felt he cared about my situation. I applaud you on being able to speak so eloquently at his service, not easy to do. Take care.

The team at the Chamber was very saddened to hear of Mike's passing. He was an active member of the Chamber and was always a pleasure to work with. Our thoughts go out to his friends and family during what is a difficult time.

I volunteered with the Dirt Series and saw the enthusiasm that Michael brought to each camp he attended. He definitely had a passion for biking and being with fellow participants .
He always took time to talk to me as he came by to get his lunch. I am sad to hear of his passing .

I am so sorry to hear this news. Every time I saw Michael's name on a registration list for the Dirt Series Mountain Bike Camps I was excited. He was amazing to have involved, and it was so cool to see him continually improve his skills. I can only imagine what a big hole he's left for those closest to him.

Hi Maria and Patrick

I am so sorry for your loss. I remember a lot of good times we spent with your family. Working the raspberry fields and time together at summer camp in Naramata. Michael and I hiding in the hedge at Naramata when my dad came looking for us after curfew time. LOL. Countless sleep overs. Saving Partrick's life when he fell on the trailer hitch. Michael building these crazy speaker systems with a piece of plywood and old recycled parts. Running through the forest with our walkie talkies and pellet guns. I still have the pellet gun I bought from Michael with the first cheque I earned at the Raspberry farm. I think of him every time I see it. We had some really good times.
Rest in piece my friend.

Marcel
