Obituary & Death Notice |
| Doug Edmonstone Doug passed away very suddenly on Friday, February 25, 2022 at the age of 69.
Born in Owen Sound on April 18, 1952, he was the devoted son of Lyle and June Edmonstone (nee Showell) of Waterloo.
He was the beloved husband of Ruth Edmonstone for over 45 years. They lived their married life in Wasaga Beach, Thornbury, and most recently, Meaford. Together they raised three wonderful children; Brent, Shaun (Nicole) all from Thornbury, and Robyn (Kent) of Newmarket. He was a special Papa to granddaughters; Hanna, Alivia, Mabel, Dalilah, Violet, Ellie and Charlotte and fondly remembered by Alexa Jackson, mother to Mabel and Dalilah.
Doug was the dear brother of Brad, Brian, Danny, Jessica, Nancy and Sue, and brother-in-law to Doug Radkey and predeceased by sister-in-law, Kathleen. He will be fondly remembered by aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews and many dear friends.
Doug retired from Blue Mountain Resorts ‘Monterra Golf’ in December, 2020. He cared deeply for those who loved him and was always willing to lend a helping hand and was known as the man who could fix or build anything. He was passionate about his Harley motorcycle, original rock and roll, meticulous about his garage and home maintenance. He was always full of stories, laughter, and kindness and really took the time to listen and encourage those he loved. His smile could light up the room.
Doug was a proud former Kinsmen and he and Ruth enjoyed socializing with friends and family and would do anything to help a friend.
Doug’s family extends their sincere gratitude to their many friends and family who have been so supportive throughout this very difficult time.
Cremation has taken place and a private funeral service will be conducted. All are welcome to attend a public Celebration of Doug’s Life at ‘The Corner’ in Thornbury on Sunday, April 10, 2022 from 2 until 5 p.m. All Covid -19 rules and restrictions must be respected to keep everybody safe.
