Harry Robert Spencer PETERSON

PETERSON, Harry Robert Spencer 1916-2006 Harry passed August 17, 2006 content with his life. He was born in Ottawa and grew up in Eastview (now Vanier): bought his first house (1941) in Overbrook when he married Lil (deceased 1998): bought his second house (1957) so his daughters Joan (deceased 2002) and Judy would be near their schools. Harry worked at Charles Ogilvy for 48 years, but turned a hobby of square dance calling and teaching into a full time, 40 year pass time, retiring again in 2001. While square dancing he and Lil crossed Canada and the U.S., also the U.K. and part of Europe - truly Ambassadors of square dancing. Rest in peace, you've done your share, Others have benefited because you cared. Happy Trails. Harry is also survived by 2 sons-in-law, 2 grandsons and 3 great-grandchildren. Friend to Aileen Lucas.
