In memory of those who have Crossed the Bar
RITCHIE, Thomas Morrison (Tom) - Born in Winnipeg in 1925, he passed away peacefully on October 22, 2020, in his 95th year. Tom was predeceased by his wife of 71 years, Muriel. He is survived by his brother Alexander, his children, Allan (Carol), Lori (Gordon), and grandchildren, Brian (Alexis) and Graham. Tom will be remembered for his long career with the Canadian Pacific Railway and for his brave contributions to the allied effort in the Second World War while serving in the Royal Canadian Navy in HMCS CHIPPAWA. He was a loving father and devoted husband who led his life with a deep sense of integrity. The family would like to extend their thanks to the amazing staff at both the Langley Seniors Village and the Kinsmen Lodge in Surrey for providing Tom with a safe, kind, and loving environment for these last few challenging years. There will be no service at his request. Flowers gratefully declined. (Winnipeg Free Press 24 Oct 2020)
