Van Noort PeterVAN NOORT, Peter Adriaan - (August 29, 1940 – April 10, 2021) - On Saturday, April 10, 2021, The Van Noort clan lost their Hero.

Pete passed suddenly doing what he loved... enjoying the warm weather, having an afternoon campfire with a rum and Coke in hand. He knew what he loved and wouldn’t let anyone stop him from living his best life.

Left to love and remember him is his wife of 60 years, Joan and his four children; Ron Van Noort (Gail Watson), Jim Van Noort (Cathy), Ken Van Noort (Michelle Vincent) and Lori Van Noort (Tim Harkness). Forever cherished by his 5 grandchildren, Justin, Jeffrey (Stephanie), Caitlin, Meghan, and Joshua and 2 great-grandchildren Tommy and Molly.

Son of the late Peter and Johanna Van Noort, late brother of Arie (Adrie) Van Noort and Joe Van Noort, and survived by his sister-in-law Dicky Bronsveld.

He will miss his trips to Florida with his dog by his side. He loved his time walking the beach and his regular boat rides to the Pub for lunch.

We’ll remember him for his easy-going spirit, his love of boating, talking to himself (because he was never wrong), his humour, his intelligence, and his modesty. He was an amazing role model for his kids… Lived his life by choosing to do what he wants, ambitious and successful entrepreneur starting The Wire Mesh Belt Company of Canada at the age of 26, knew how to “work to live, not live to work’, providing for his family with remarkable generosity, all the while making himself available to help anytime someone needed.

He raised his 3 boys playing hockey and his only daughter as a figure skater. He spent so much time at the arena, he decided he might as well become the President of the King City Hockey Association.

He taught all us kids to waterski, ride a snowmobile, drive a car on the dirt roads, captain a boat (but only if you can dock it the way he wanted you to) and how to make the perfect rum and Coke. We’ll never forget charades at the cottage, snowmobile rides to Sprucedale, boating to town for an ice cream cone, the wood stove stoked so hot we all wore shorts in January and how his chess board always had pieces on the move.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Roadhouse & Rose Funeral Home, 157 Main Street South, Newmarket, ON. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, a celebration of life will be hosted at a later date.

Donations may be made in honour of Peter to the Canadian Cancer Society and the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
