Vincent Patrick Haughey

Vince was born in the Beach neighbourhood of Toronto on December 20, 1935. He was a lifelong resident in the neighbourhood save for a brief time in Ottawa when he opened a branch office for Canadian Patent Scaffolding Company. Vince had a lifelong passion for many sports, including hockey, which he both played and coached.

He is survived by his loving wife of over fifty years, Gillian; children, Brad (Karee) and Greg (Tanya); his beloved grandchildren, Jasmine, Charlotte, Cameron and Ben. He was preceded in death by his parents, Joseph and Catherine Haughey, his sister Teresa, and his brothers Joseph and George.

Vince lived for his family and friends and always had a ready smile. He had a long career beginning as a licensed plumber and then transitioning to sales at Canadian Patent Scaffolding Company. In his later years he worked in construction supply sales at Jamac Sales.

Vince spent most of his life active in the Toronto Beach community. A devout catholic at St.John’s Parish. Also a member at the Balmy Beach Club. We know that you are having a pint in heaven and reunited with your parents, brothers, sister and many of your best buddies.

A small family service was held after his passing on January 9th. Plans will be made for a celebration of life later this year will be forthcoming.

Adored and loved by all who were lucky enough to know him. Ninety remarkable years of laughter, love and kindness. What a legacy you leave. We will miss you. Rest in peace.
