It is with heavy hearts that we share the loss of Alan Bell, who passed away peacefully at Hospice Wellington with family by his side. He leaves behind his wife and best friend of 58 years Janis (nee Dennison), his beloved daughters Angie Dairou (Al), Karen Bell (Darryl Lahteenmaa), precious grandson Rhodes, his sister Pat Keachie, his sister-in-law Linda Dennison, and brother-in-laws: Daniel Dennison (Ann), David Dennison, Duff Dennison (Deanna), and Paul Dennison (Delta). He will also be missed by many nieces and nephews.
Predeceased by his parents Donald and Grace, sister June Rose, and brother-in-laws Dave Rose, Jim Keachie, and Peter Dennison.
Al was born in Mount Forest, Ontario and made Milton his home for most of his life. He was a devoted business owner who operated his own courier service for over 50 years. Al had a keen business mind and an appreciation for finance. Known for his wonderful sense of humour, Al made everyone around him laugh. He loved cars, especially Corvettes, and had a special fondness for car racing, in particular the Daytona 500. Al was a dedicated and devoted husband, father and grandfather and family was the centre of his life.
He will be sadly missed.
According to Al’s wishes, there will be no funeral service. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Salvation Army or Hospice Wellington.
