EDWARD, Leo Soye -
Edward passed away peacefully on the morning of May 15, 2013 in the company of his immediate family.
A loving husband to the late Anne Theresa Soye, caring father to Sharon Anne Soye and inspirational grandfather to Edward Peter Soye.
Born in Dublin, Ireland on November 4, 1925, to John and Georgina, he was the second oldest in a family of ten siblings - Maura, Georgina, Ursula, Robert and the late Elsie, Brenda, Tom, John and Willie. Before immigrating to Canada, Edward joined many of his relatives working on the railway, predominantly as a fireman.
After arriving in Canada, he joined Phoenix Applied Electronics. This was one of the many companies that became part of the Avro Canada empire, before eventually evolving into SPAR Aerospace. Despite the name and ownership changes, Ed essentially worked for the same company for his nearly 40-year career.
He never stopped appreciating the countless opportunities his career afforded him to learn new skills. Drawing on those skills, Ed was the perennial handyman who put his mechanical aptitude to work for the benefit of anyone who needed it.
After the passing of his wife, 20 years ago this August, he remained a rock of support for his daughter Sharon. Ed's longtime association with aviation also inspired his grandson (and namesake) Edward P. to become a pilot and devote much of his time to vintage aeroplanes.
Uncle Eddie will be remembered by his late wife's family, the Smiths, who have been steadfast supporters of their Soye cousins.
Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St Martin of Tours Roman Catholic Church, 1280 MCBride Ave., on Saturday, May 18, 2013, at 11 a.m.

STEWART-PATTERSON, Lloyd Donald - B.Sc., MBA, Retired VP (AON) -
 (December 11, 1943 – May 15, 2013)
Our hero has left the building... Lloyd, a fourth generation Torontonian has decided, with no small regret, to leave the party. A fervent lover of dogs, St. Patrick’s Day, the Rolling Stones, and Sunday night roast beef dinners.
Lloyd delighted in the per diem cocktail hour with his best friend and devoted wife of 42 years, Judy. He also leaves behind his two outstanding daughters Brooke Leland (Brian) and Amber Bukata (Matthew); and adored twin grandsons Austin and Nate Bukata.
Lloyd will be missed by his treasured brother Wynne (Gail), his loved cousin/”sister” Joy (John), his wonderful sisters and brothers in-law, his many dear nieces, and a “motley, loved and appreciated assortment of friends”.
Lloyd’s look and personality was a mix of Robert Redford from “The Natural," Clint Eastwood from “Gran Torino” and Bates from “Downton Abby." The man garnered great respect and loyalty throughout his life through his fine character and honourable actions. He in turn had tremendous admiration and respect for our Veterans of War.
Profound thanks to the TGH Blue Team, The Princess Margaret Hospital, his family of nurses at the Joseph Brant Cancer Clinic and the Carpenter Hospice. Thank you good people, for giving Lloyd a few more years to be with his loved ones.
Respecting Lloyd’s wishes, there will be a private family wake to honour a very brave man. Arrangements out of Burlington.
