- Douglas Devlin - Obituary
Passed away peacefully at home in Etobicoke on Sunday, November 16, 2014, at the age of 83. Doug was predeceased by his wife Marie, his brother Keith and in-laws John and Olive McKee. He will be dearly missed by sister-in-law Joan Devlin as well as nieces Carol (Bruce) Stonehouse, Lynn Payne, Ellen (Ed) Giertuga, Nancy (Christopher) Dares and nephews Ron (Karen) McKee, David (Cathy) Devlin and his many much-loved great-grandnieces and grandnephews who brought joy to his world. Every family member enjoyed his "squishy" hugs, his gentle nature and sense of humour. Summers were spent in Muskoka, where his hospitality included much laughter, "Dougie" burgers, playing boisterous card games and racing around the lake in his latest boat. The Boy Scout camp on the lake introduced him, not only to Marie, his loving wife of 53 years, but an ever-widening circle of friends. While in Toronto, he enjoyed sailing, watching car races and going to the theatre. One of his biggest pleasures was to go shopping with others in mind. Doug showed great love and compassion for all creatures. One of his longtime favourite companions was Smokey the parrot. Then for the last 20 years, his comrade was Charles the cat. In the working world, he contributed to the success of Somerville Belkin Industries in Toronto, where he was employed as a die maker for over 30 years. Friends may call at the Turner & Porter "Peel" Chapel, 2180 Hurontario St., Mississauga (Hwy. 10, N. of QEW), on Friday, November 28, from 5-8 p.m. Memorial service will be held in the Chapel on Saturday, November 29, 2014, at 3 p.m. For those who wish, donations may be made to a charity of your choice.
