Very sorry to hear of the passing of my Uncle John.  John was married to my father's sister Agnes (nee Thomson).   I have fond memories of family gatherings in Port Hope, Peterborough, Oshawa and at our house in Toronto.    On behalf of Nephew Murray Thomson and Nieces Nancy (Thomson) DiFelice and Maureen Thomson - THANK YOU! for the wonderful family memories over the years.  I have uploaded a picture that was taken at one of my mother's parties of Uncle John and Aunt Agnes (in red)

Uncle John and Aunt Agnes were a major influence in our youth as we had good family gatherings in TO, Oshawa or Port Hope. Aunt Isabel and Uncle Jack in Port Hope hosted family garden picnics that included badminton, horseshoes out on the Ellen St boulevard pitch, croquet, golf (in the garden!), etc. Earliest faint memories of Agnes and John is their wedding with a few military uniforms and a sword arch as they exited the church. My dad Samuel played the pipes (TO Scottish). Uncle John spoke of a fishing trip to BC that sounded like a major highlight. When Aunt Agnes spoke, John would offer to get the soapbox as the speech progressed. They were a neat couple and not poster material for anti-smoking as they puffed tobacco up through    
their 80's. He kept an army jeep with snow plow at their Milton St house (from the Henderson Block Co) that helped keep the neighbourhood clear of snow. Golf was a major passion and he had a small collection of interesting firearms. John and Agnes will remain fond memories for Maureen, Nancy and Murray on the Thomson side.

cam and i used to hang out together,also we were in air cadets to-gether

To Cam's family I offer my sincere condolences on the passing of a wonderful gentleman.  I first knew Cam as a member of the Kiwanis Club of Oshawa.  A wonderful group of business men and women who focused on helping children in our community. Our Club has changed over the years, membership is dwindling but our memories of great friends fortunately is still with us.  I will notify our members and former members of Cam's death and I know all of us will have great memories of serving with him in Kiwanis.
