Douglas George Heathfield (25 August 1936 - 04 July 2022)
Douglas passed peacefully surrounded by his family on July 4 after a brief struggle with cancer.
He will be sadly missed by Sandra, his wife of 62 years, his four daughters Linda, Leslie, Karen (Bill) and Tracey (Frank), his eight grandchildren and his ten great grandchildren.
Doug was born, raised and practiced dentistry for his entire career in Weston Ontario. Doug’s generosity, energy, creativity and sense of humour made him a good friend and a popular volunteer at Front Lines, Meals-on-Wheels, The Cancer Society and many other local charitable organizations.
He was an active lifetime member of Weston Presbyterian Church. As an avid sportsman, Doug curled, skied and played tennis. However, his first love was baseball.
Doug was also a lover of music, particularly jazz. He was a member of the Westones for a number of years, sang in the church choir and looked forward to volunteering at the Toronto Jazz Festival every year, as well as catching every live jazz concert he could.
Funeral arrangements will be announced at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, friends are encouraged to make donations to their favourite charities.
