Bryce Ivan Nimmo
Born April 3, 1934, in Wilkie Saskatchewan, and passed September 28, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family. Bryce was a devoted husband to his loving wife Rosalie, and a proud father to his children Bryce Jr., Brent, Gaye, and Melanie. He was also a proud grandfather to his numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who in turn adored him.
Bryce started his career as a clothier in Estevan and later moved to Calgary where he transitioned to owning his own store. He was always involved in politics and became Director of the Office of the Premier in Calgary under Premier Peter Lougheed and later served as Alberta Trade director in Houston.
Bryce and his bride retired to Drumheller in 1996 where they owned and operated Taste the Past bed and breakfast for 10 years, after which time Bryce stepped into his own political role as Mayor of Drumheller from 2006-2010.
He lived life in Drumheller to the fullest and found joy in the things he loved- his church community, volunteering, and his many friendships.
Bryce will be remembered for his warm and welcoming nature. He was easy to talk to, striking up a thoughtful conversation with everyone he interacted with. His infectious spirit and warm smile brought joy to all who had the honour of knowing him.
Bryce’s legacy is one of love, hard work, kindness and generosity.
He will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew him.
Funeral Service for Bryce will be held Saturday, October 3, 2026 at Grace Lutheran Church ( 620 2nd Ave. West, Drumheller, Alberta ) at 2:00 P.M., luncheon to follow in the church basement.
