Family was very important to Dad. His joy was to make sure everyone was loved.His workshop was his pride and joy to spread so many memories to so many loved ones. He always left a special message written on whatever he built. Dad loved sharing so many memories about playing baseball and hockey. His time in the Navy was a proud moment for him. When you are thinking of dad, enjoy some chocolate or hard candy. His jar of candy was an endless treat for him. Milk chocolate was his favourite.

Dad lived at River Gardens in Stratford, where he was able to relax and be taken care of by the excellent staff there. Thank you to the many PSWs, nurses and doctors who have looked after dad in Stratford, St. Marys and Hospice. Dad spent his last days at Stratford Hospice in the care of the amazing volunteers and staff. We cannot as a family thank them enough.

On Thursday, August 7, 2025 at 1 p.m. a graveside service will take place at the St. Marys Cemetery. All are welcome to attend. At that time we will celebrate the lives of Mom and Dad. A Celebration of Life Reception will follow at the Masonic Lodge in St. Marys.

Donations in Dad’s memory may be made to the Rotary Hospice Stratford Perth.
