Dr. Noel “Riley” Browne. December 6, 1942 – July 2, 2026. Leaving with many fond memories is the love of his life, Christina (Rae) Browne (nee Lowe), sons Dr. Greg Browne (Libby Carew), Noel Browne Jr (Meg Gillies) and daughter Dr. Nancy Browne (Dr. Rob Cochran), grandchildren, Liam, Evan and Finbar Browne, Emmett and Thea Cochran, and sister Mary and family. He leaves many cherished relatives including nieces and nephews in Ireland and British Columbia and many cousins throughout Ireland and the U.K. He leaves a wide circle of friends and neighbours who were as important to him as family. Many will remember fabulous meals followed by legendary ‘sing a longs’ around Noel and Christina’s table, that lasted well into the wee hours. He also leaves a legacy of generations of young athletes upon whose lives he had massive impact as a mentor, coach and role model. He is predeceased by his brothers Dr.’s Tom and Michael (Mick), the latter of whom left us only 3 weeks ago.
