May 20, 1937 – April 6, 2024
In loving memory of a beloved husband, cherished father and esteemed veteran, we bid farewell to a man whose life journey was as remarkable as it was inspiring. Born during the tumultuous era of WWII in Luxembourg, his life’s path brought him to the shores of the United States. He embraced the call of duty, joining the US Air Force as a reservist and served during the Vietnam War with valor, commitment and deep-seated love for peace.
He found a new home in the welcoming arms of Canada, where he found his loving life partner, planted roots and watched them flourish. A treasured resident, he contributed to his community and family with the same dedication.
He was a guiding light to his family, imparting wisdom and love in equal measure. His legacy lives on through them—their achievements a reflection of his enduring influence.
As we commemorate his life, we remember a man of integrity, a protector of nations, and a devoted father and husband. His memory will forever be etched in the hearts of those who knew him, and his spirit will continue to soar high above the nations he called home.
He died in peace with his devoted wife by his side. May he rest in peace, knowing he has left the world a better place for his presence.
A Funeral Mass will take place at Holy Spirit Parish (650 Essa Rd., Barrie, ON) on Thursday, April 11, 2024 at 10am followed by an interment at Glendale Cemetery (1810 Albion Rd, Etobicoke, ON).
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the Canadian Cancer Society.
