Peacefully and on his own terms our beloved Malcolm, husband, father, and grandpa passed away. His days of suffering are over and he is now at peace. Malcolm was a very caring and kind person who never realized the kind and fair influence he had on other people.
Peacefully and unexpectedly, after a short battle with cancer, we lost an amazing husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather.
It is with great sadness, much love and a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our beloved Rick, who passed away peacefully with Valerie, Wayne, Gerry and Roger by his side, on Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at the Grace Hospital.
