He also enjoyed playing cards. The thing he loved the most was spoiling his grandchildren, giving them ridiculous gifts was one of his favourite pastimes. We will all miss his quick dry wit and kind heart.

The family wants to thank the nursing staff at the South Shore Regional Hospital for their kindness.

Making a donation to the Bridgewater Inter-Church Food Bank or doing a random act of kindness for a homeless person would honour his generous spirit.
