Somewhere, a friendly hand pegged points on a cribbage board. Somewhere, even on a hot August long weekend, someone pondered ordering the soup of the day. And, somewhere, Peter Campbell said "K'knock, k'knock" and walked through another door. After 29,380 days in this world, "Petey Boy" has moved on. Colin Peter Campbell, born February 23, 1936, left for the everlasting Blizzard Stop on August 1, 2016. His final chapter was written quietly, with his loving wife and two of his three children at his side. Peter Campbell married Nancy Osbourne Canfield on September 24, 1965. In almost 51 years of marriage, they raised three children, and, most recently, celebrated five grandchildren. Peter made a life, spending more than forty years in the Canadian footwear industry. He spent time with Eaton's, Hallmark, Jarman, Baffin and Columbia. He travelled much of Ontario and eastern Canada, establishing lasting and valued relationships with retailers and suppliers, big and small. He loved his wife, his kids, his daughters-in-law and son-in-law, his grandkids, his friends, his sister and more. He loved playing cribbage, swimming, making toasted Westerns or his Christmas hash for family and friends. He loved, among other things, the Climax Jazz Band, the Toronto Blue Jays, and the Indy 500. For many years, Peter was the public address voice of the Oakville Blades, and served on the team's executive. Announcing each goal and penalty, Peter's voice was synonymous with Friday night's at Oakville Arena and he looked forward to those Friday's, alongside some of his closest friends. Peter overcame quadruple bypass surgery, prostate cancer, a ruptured Achillies tendon and a couple of broken shoulders. Each was an obstacle, but each provided motivation. Peter is survived by his wife and best friend, Nancy, his children Andy (Myfanwy Davies), of Fredericton, Jamie (Alison Redmond), of Toronto, and Marnie (Chris Ivanich), of Milton. He will be lovingly remembered by grandchildren Sydney, Wynn, Kaden, Jack, and Georgia, his sister, Barb Stone, his family and countless friends. While our hearts are heavy, they are full. While we mourn, we celebrate. While we wish for one more day, we're thankful for those he spent with us. A celebration of Pete's life is being planned for family and friends. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you make a donation in Peter's name to Prostate Cancer Canada, the Heart and Stroke Foundation or your local Relay for Life. All three organizations helped him in one way or another. Say good night, Art. l Obituaries l Obituaries THAYER, Scott Alexander Passed away peacefully on August 2, 2016 at Ian Anderson House in Oakville in his 52nd year. The loving husband of Louise, devoted father of Alex and Jack, son of Ethel and Bob, brother of Sandy and friend to all who knew him. An avid skier and sailor, Scott was eager to contribute his energies toward volunteering. His latest role, chairing the building committee for the Alpine Ski Club chalet which is opening this fall, brought him joy and a lot of new friends as he championed the cause one chairlift conversation at a time. His passion was as contagious as his courage while he always strived to WIN THE DAY. A celebration of life will be held at the Port Credit Yacht Club on Friday, August 5 at 1 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre (directly, or through your favourite Ride to Conquer Cancer participant), or to Ian Anderson House. Our journey through this illness was made better by a great number of people. Our thanks to each of you. l Obituaries l Obituaries Hogwood, Ronald Edwin CPA, FCMA (1925 - 2016) Ron Hogwood, dearest husband of 67 years to Joan, devoted father to Catherine Brady (Jim) and Caroline Hogwood (Barry Sutton), loving grandfather to Ben Brady (Lauren) and Hilary Sutton, and great-grandfather to Jack Brady, passed away surrounded by his family on August 1, 2016. WARD, Michael Tyler Passed away suddenly on August 1, 2016 at the age of 30. Beloved son of Robert and Charlotte Ward. Loving brother of James and his fiancée Nicole as well as Joseph and his partner Jenny. Smile now young man, your heart is so full of love. We remember you always caring and sharing of yourself so much. Your spirit will live forever in all of us. May you rest in peace my son. Visitation was held at the Glen Oaks Funeral Home, 3164 Ninth Line, Oakville, 905 257 8822, on Thursday, August 4th from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. The funeral mass will be held at St. Matthew Catholic Church, 1150 Monks Passage, Oakville, on Friday, August 5, 2016 at 1 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to ADAPT Halton at www.haltonadapt.org. Online condolences may be made at www.glenoaks.ca Only child of Grace and Edwin Hogwood, who were sadly killed in the London Blitz, Ron served in His Majesty's forces during WWII in Malta, Libya and Palestine. Ron and Joan came to Canada in 1954 as an adventure and fell in love with the country and settled in Oakville. Ron had a wonderful career as a Partner, KPMG and in retirement, joined Stetron International for an additional 25 years, working part time until the age of 87! Ron enjoyed cricket, soccer, traditional jazz, golf and Hilton Head Island. But it was his family who were the centre of his life - enjoying nothing more than family gatherings and family vacations. "Crunching numbers" was his passion and how appropriate he passed away on a traditional British Bank holiday! He will be remembered as a kind, generous, and true gentleman. We would like to thank the team on the 2nd floor, The Kensington Oakville for their wonderful care of Ron during his illness. If desired, a contribution in memory of Ron may be made to the Salvation Army, Halton Women's Place or a children's charity of your choice. A private family cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will take place in September. "A life well lived - a man well loved." l In Memoriams STAFFORD, Ken August 24, 1929 - August 8, 2010 In loving memory of a beloved husband and dear father, who left us suddenly six years ago.
