Hugh VASEY

We are sad to announce the passing of Hugh Vasey on January 28, 2017 in his eighty-first year, after being hospitalized for a brief illness. He was a tender and loving brother, husband, father, grandfather and friend to all those he met. After graduating from Ryerson, Hugh enjoyed a long career with BA/Gulf Canada. He was also active in the Lions Club, Probus, Cooksville United Church and thoroughbred racing with his brother Gary. Amongst a wide list of sports he happily played, coached and followed, curling and the Toronto Blue Jays were his favourites. He leaves behind his wife Beverly, daughters Kitty and Colleen, grandchildren James, Matthew, Christian and Clare and sons-in-law Jeff and Michael. He was predeceased by his parents Mark and Carrie and brother Gary. He will be sadly missed by his brother Glen. Friends may call the Turner & Porter, Peel Chapel (2180 Hurontario St.), Mississauga, on Wednesday from 6-9 p.m. A funeral service will be held at Cooksville United Church (2500 Mimosa Row), Mississauga, on Thursday, February 2, 2017 at 2 p.m. In lieu of flowers, please feel free to donate to Parkinson Canada (www.parkinson.ca) in his memory. Hugh was a good man who enjoyed life’s simple pleasures. Condolences can be made through
