Ronald Eugene WINTER

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Ron Winter on Friday, July 29, 2016, weeks away from his 90th birthday. He was predeceased by his loving wife Jenny of 60 years, and lovingly remembered by his children Alan (Allison), Cheryl (Earl), Lori and his cherished grandchildren Taylor and Trevor. Ronald is survived by his sister Shirley Thomas of Indiana. Ron will continue to be cherished by all his family and friends who have been graced by his life. Visitation will be held 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. on Thursday, August 4th and 11 a.m. Friday, August 5th with Service to follow at 1 p.m. in the Chapel, at Jerrett Funeral Home, North York Chapel, 6191 Yonge Street, Toronto (2 blocks south of Steeles Avenue), on Friday, August 5, 2016.

Ronald was a man of great belief, which he instilled in everyone he knew. Ron had many friends and built lasting relationships throughout his life. He had a positive outlook and enriched the lives of many who knew him. He will be forever remembered and dearly missed.

Ronald was a mentor to many and a generous person, always doing for others, expected nothing in return. He was honest, ethical, genuine and a true leader. Still at 89 years of age, he was a vibrant go-getter, fiercely independent, running errands, attending meetings of engineering alumni, neighbourhood meetings, getting to appointments by car or by subway. His life was full and he enjoyed every minute.

In lieu of flowers, donations to a charity of one’s choice are appreciated. Online condolences may be made at www.jerrettfuneralhometoronto.ca
