What a good run he had, strong in mind and spirit.

He leaves treasure memories of his 6 children, Horace, Enez (Lisa), Cheryl (Suzette), Larry (Lawrence), Dexter and Kirk. 18 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren. <br> <br>Special thanks to his dear neighbour Ms. Molly who would often just make a special meal for him. His granddaughter Kiona who lived close enough to rush over to assist with his daily duties. His nieces Judy and Lynette who was able to provide care at home. His countless friends and neighbours that would make sure he had the best seat in the bar for UFC Fight Night where he sat with his orange juice yelling at the screen. <br></div>
