Price Carter had a laugh that boomed through rooms and always charted his own path. Born on February 7, 1957, in Vancouver, Canada, Carter lived an adventurous life full of excitement and exploration. He passed away on June 20, 2025, in Kelowna, B.C., choosing medical assistance in dying at the age of 68.

Early Life and Passion for Adventure

Price’s passion for adventure started during his childhood, possibly inspired by watching his parents’ travel slides with his six siblings. Every summer, the family retreated to Bowen Island in Howe Sound, B.C., where Price and his brother Stevie explored the lush wilderness.

Professional Life

After high school, Price pursued his dream of becoming a pilot. He attended flight school in 1976, earned his commercial pilot license, and started working for Air Canada. Despite his professional commitments, Price never let go of his adventurous spirit. His escapades included climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, motorcycling up Australia’s coast, and helping crew a sailboat from Hawaii to Victoria.

Family Life

In 1993, Price became a father to twins Grayson and Lane, followed by Jenna two years later. Known for his imaginative storytelling, Price loved surprising his kids with fun activities, like diving for treasure chests filled with chocolate and gems during their annual swim test. He was also a beloved grandfather, who engaged his granddaughters in fun learning activities.

Later Years and Legacy

Price met his second wife, Danielle, in 2014. The couple shared a love for outdoor activities and frequently explored Vancouver Island and the Okanagan with Danielle’s children, Courtney and Taylor. In his retirement, Price enjoyed rowing and spending time in his workshop.

Price’s mother, Kay Carter, was a well-known advocate for the right to die with dignity in Canada. Her Supreme Court case led to the Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) legislation. When Price was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2024, this advocacy gave him the option to choose the same path. His family was with him when he passed away, sharing stories and celebrating his adventurous spirit.

Remembering Price Carter

Price Carter was a man who lived life on his own terms, embracing every new day with an endless thirst for adventure. He was a loving father, a devoted husband, and an adored grandfather. His life was full of vibrant stories and unforgettable experiences, a testament to his unyielding spirit and love for life.
