JACK McGILL With much sadness we announce the passing of Jack McGill on Monday, August 15, 2016, after 91 years of a life well-lived. Devoted partner to Marjorie Badgerow and proud father of Barbara Veitch, Gary (Judy), Michael (Lorraine) and Peggy Carroll (Larry). Predeceased by his wife Alma (Fawcett) and son-in-law Lloyd Veitch and leaving a wonderful legacy of twelve grandchildren (whom he teased unmercifully), Carrie (Todd), Shawn (Katrina) and Jamie (Candice); Meghan and Maureen (Ryan); Steve (Julia), Sandra (Stephen), Laura (Al) and April; Jennifer (Bill), Shannon (Kevin) and Melissa (Dan) and eighteen beautiful great- grandchildren, Austin, Tanner, Madalaina, Evan, Abigail, Colby, Mary and Penny; Clara; Madelyn, Autumn, Riley, Alan, Paige and Ayleen; Ella, Josephine and Charlotte. Jack will also be missed by the Badgerow family and his friends on Otter Line in Lindsay. During the Second World War, Jack served overseas with pride in the 2nd Reserve Divisional Signals Corps of the 2nd Canadian Division, helping to liberate Holland in 1943/44. He was a fifty year Local 46 Plumbers and Fitters man who deeply loved the outdoors and spent many happy years with his family camping and boating at Woodlands Campsite in the Kawarthas and later in the Minden area. We wish to express our appreciation to the caring team of practitioners at Ross Memorial Hospital Palliative Care Unit in Lindsay, Ontario. Family and friends are invited to share their memories of Jack at a lunch reception on Thursday, September 22nd at Cathedral Bluffs Yacht Club, in Bluffers Park, Scarborough, from noon to 2:00 p.m.
