He ended his career working as a Surface Boss for the last 12 years. Dad was a proud life long member of the Royal Canadian Legion. He had a deep and profound respect and admiration for our veterans especially those that made the ultimate sacrifice. Remembrance Day was always very special to him. It was through the Legion that he developed his love of darts. He was very proficient and won many championships. He proudly represented Sudbury often at the Senior games. A recreation room full of trophies and gold medals is testament to his success. His proudest achievement however were his children. They were a never ending source of pride to him. He was both a gentleman and a gentle man, and this was readily apparent to all who met him. He will be missed by everyone that knew him. In keeping with Dad's wishes there will be no visitation. Cremation and interment at Park Lawn Cemetery. Details entrusted to LOUGHEED FUNERAL HOME, 252 Regent St., Sudbury. In lieu of flowers the family would appreciate donations to the Canadian Cancer Society in Dad's memory. The family would like to thank the Emergency Room Staff at St. Joseph's Hospital as well as the 4th floor Nursing Station for their care and compassion. Also the palliative care givers at Laurentian Hospital for their kindness and especially Dr. Cano for his understanding. Condolences may be sent online to www.lougheeds.com 10815760
