HUFF, Dr. David Gordon - (April 21, 1946 - August 29, 2021) - It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father and brother, David, peacefully, after a long and courageous battle with Parkinson's Disease.
David Huff was born to Gordon and Mildred Huff (nee Beattie) April 21, 1946, in Brantford, Ontario and was the oldest brother to Peter and Richard.
David graduated from Lorne Park Secondary School in Mississauga, Ontario in 1964 and subsequently attended the University of Guelph in the Veterinary Sciences program, graduating in 1969 as a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine.
While at the University of Guelph, David was a member of the swim team, competing in long distance swimming events.
While attending University of Guelph he met and married his Wife of 50 years Barbara (nee Gray).
Following a brief stint at his uncle's veterinary hospital in Brantford, Ontario, David and Barbara moved to Vancouver to open a veterinary hospital in partnership with a former classmate. It was in Vancouver where their two sons, Chris and Craig were born.
David was well-liked and respected by all who knew him and will be greatly missed.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Parkinson Society of British Columbia or the Michael J. Fox Foundation would be greatly appreciated.
