Thank you to the staff of William Booth Special Care Home for their dedication and respect displayed in caring for Dad.

Dad loved the Blue Jays, except when they were losing. He liked any other CFL team rather than the Riders, just to be contrary. He loved movies, especially old movies. Although I think he watched “Something About Mary” at least ten times. He loved reading the paper and cutting out the word find puzzle to do every day. Dad loved travelling and listening to music. He found out how to use YouTube and that allowed him to listen to all kinds of music, country western and polkas mostly, sometimes all day! He loved playing with (tormenting) the cat Wicca. They would chase each other around the house until Wicca would attack. And then they’d both come back for more.
