He passed away peacefully at home on June 12th with his daughters and I at his side. Anyone who has met Joost knows that he was an incredible man. He was a two time Olympian and continued to hold that courage and strength throughout the rest of his life. Joost showed so much love and compassion to those around him, especially to his family. He was a wonderful friend, husband, father and grandfather. The lives of those he touched will forever be enriched due to his sense of humour, advice, and kindness. Joost was always there for those in need, whether they needed someone to listen or some advice on a problem. He always had all the answers. Although his passing has deeply saddened us all, the memories we have will stay with us forever. Joost will be remembered as a brave Olympian, a devoted husband, and a man who could make you feel so loved with just one smile. The family will have a private celebration of life for Joost at a later date. Joost was a man like no other and he will be missed by many. CROWE, Lorna Joan April 14, 1936 - June 6th 2020 ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Joan (Fitzgerald) Crowe. Joan was the beloved wife of George, married 61 years, and a devoted mother to Jan (Svend), Steve (Michele), Doug (Liana) and Don (Renée). Joan was a loving grandmother to Taylor, Madeline, Emily, Rebecca, Brad, Megan, Natalie, Sarah, Olivia and Hayden and proud great- grandmother to Monica, Xavier and Gabriel. Joan passed away peacefully with her family at her side after a brief illness. Joan was predeceased by parents Mona and Lorne Fitzgerald, sister Wendy Parent and granddaughter Madeline. Joan's passions included raising her family, caring for her pets, crafting doll furniture for her grandchildren's doll house, travelling to great destinations, canoeing, camping and many trips to Florida! Joan began her career as a service representative for Bell Canada and had several part time roles with other companies over the years. Joan also served as a past president of Newcomers in Waterloo.

Born in Greiz, Germany, he came to Canada in 1953 and founded a flourishing greenhouse business, Dahnert Flowers Limited, which he ran for almost 60 years.

We love you so much and you mean the world to us. Kochamy cię Tatuś, Happy Father's Day! Love, Kasia and Stefan. Pawel Wojt ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ "Walk a little slower, Daddy." said a little child so small. I'm following in your footsteps and I don't want to fall. Sometimes your steps are very fast, sometimes they're hard to see; So walk a little slower Daddy, for you are leading me. Someday when I'm all grown up, You're what I want to be. Then I will have a little child who'll want to follow me. And I would want to lead just right, and know that I was true; So, walk a little slower, Daddy, for I must follow you! Love, Olivia.
