Vet `became part of your family' Continued from pg. 1 her," said Carlisle, of Georgetown. "Twenty-four/seven he was available. He went above and beyond. He was an amazing man." Trenton provided care for Acton resident Liz Bailey's pets for many years as well. "He was always delighted to see our pets and our pets were delighted to see him," said Bailey, who became close friends with the Trenton family. She said Trenton "truly loved his vocation." "He became part of your family because he's a mobile vet," said Bailey. "He had a great sense of humour and a smile that would just light up his face." Wally Kalynowysh, another client, said Trenton would come to his Mississauga home to see his dogs. Trenton "just had a golden touch when it came to animals," he said. "The world is going to be a much sadder place without him," Kalynowysh said. "He was a friend, he knew how much these animals mean to us-- my family and my children. "He was such a mentor as far as his trade was concerned," said Kalynowysh, adding Trenton mentored several vet students over the years. Trenton was slowly reducing his workload. His daughter-in-law Christina and another vet worked with him in the practice, which will continue to operate. "At this point he was trying to do two days a week," said Carolyn. His hobbies included cowboy action shooting and woodcarving. "He loved his children and his four little guys (grandsons), " said Carolyn. "There was something special about my dad," said his daughter Candace. "He was a scientist, always explaining things in great detail." "Ronny was the big brother to myself, brother Gary and sisters Janice and Kristel," said Georgetown denturist Alex Trenton. "He was our mentor in many ways over the years. He constantly exhibited a tireless passion not only for his family and friends, but also for his work in veterinary medicine. He was everything a big brother should be. `The Leader of the Pack,' and now he's gone." Trenton is survived by wife Carolyn, children Candace (Dave), Julia (Kevin) and Adam (Christina) and grandchildren Logan, Will, Aaron and Ben. He is also survived by his parents Alex and Grace Trenton and siblings Janice Marshall (Bob), Alex (Kelly), Gary (Lynn) and Kristel (Stuart).
