We wish to thank the many caregivers over the years at St. Joseph’s Health Care Centre and Humber River Hospital, and a special thank-you to his brother-in-law David for his endless support. Friends will be received at the Ward Funeral Home, 2035 Weston Road (N. of Lawrence Ave. W.), Toronto on Wednesday from 2-4 & 6-9pm.
