PUUSA, Raimo 'Ray' Eino Heimo - (1933 - 2021) Died on February 28, 2021 at Scarborough General Hospital. Born on January 18, 1933 at Viipuri, Finland.
As one of eight children (with his youngest sister on the way at the time), the second-oldest Raimo (as a young man of almost 19 years old), was the only family member who spoke English when the Puusa family immigrated to Canada in December 1951 during the Cold War era.
Once in Canada, Raimo spent time in a Timmins sawmill with his father Eino and several brothers before the family settled in Toronto. Raimo became a carpenter like his father Eino. Through a family connection, Raimo was introduced to Jean Mary Hill (a recent immigrant from Derbyshire, England), and they were soon married on August 5, 1958.
