Mr. Hewitt Nathaniel White

Hewitt, a talented, charismatic, spiritual leader, and family man was bitten by the travel bug, which would take him to several countries. He traveled extensively both as a civilian and during his time in the Royal Army Service Corps.

His passion for photography ultimately led him to study and graduate from the New York Institute of Photography. He then traveled back to England, where he had served in the British Army and worked as a welder before moving onto Canada. To develop a greater understanding of his new home in Toronto, he became a licensed cab driver. He enhanced his welding skills by graduating from George Brown College with a degree in welding and architecture. While working as a welder, he created a studio and worked part-time, as a wedding photographer. During his time as a welder, Hewitt worked for Sears Canada in the manufacturing department. His dedication and devotion to work was recognized by the company with an award for 5 consecutive years for perfect attendance (1991-1995). Hewitt stayed with the company until his retirement.

Always a man of faith, his commitment to God was manifested by his involvement in St Clair Avenue Baptist Church. He became a Deacon and pivotal member in his and the church community.

In June of 84, he married the love of his life, Winnifred. Their 37-year marriage was brought to an end by his unexpected death. An energetic, protective, loving husband and father, he endured a slow decline in his health due to Alzheimer's

During the first five years of his illness, he was lovingly cared for at home by Winnifred. When he transferred to Baycrest, Winnifred continued to ensure he was lovingly cared for by visiting him twice a week, doing his laundry, and bringing him home-cooked meals.

Hewitt is the beloved husband of Winnifred.

He is the loving Father of Delroy, Maria, Andrew, and Prince.

Cherished Grandfather of Aaron.

Father-in-law of Victoria
