ARTHUR ADDISON

ARTHUR ADDISON
With heavy hearts and great sadness, we announce the passing of the life of Arthur Addison at the Manitoulin Health Centre in Mindemoya on March 21, 2024 at the age of 88. Arthur was predeceased by his beloved wife of 67 years, Jean (Cook) Addison. The family home and friends within their wonderful community of Silver Water on Manitoulin Island gave him great joy and support and that was always home whether on or off the Island. Arthur will always be remembered by his children Debbie, Pennie and Joe (Julie) as the supportive, kind gentleman who had a twinkle in his bright blue eyes at holidays, especially his epic annual Easter egg hunts. His grandchildren Sydney and Roslyn Addison-Rudat and Jacob Addison were his pride and joy and now grieve the difficult loss of their fun loving Grandpa. Predeceased by his parents Ted and Hazel (Edmonds) Addison, Arthur is survived by some of his favorite people, his siblings Kay (Allen) Everett and Danny (Joy) Addison. The family is so grateful for all the care and support of Dr. Reade over the years and the great team of support to keep Arthur happy and comfortable in his own home, namely Beth, Ruth and Katrina. The availability of the fabulous hospice suite where the doctors and nurses tended to not only our Dad’s every need but also nourished our souls as we navigated this difficult time together was wonderful. We will never forget your caregiving but also your kindness. There will be a visitation in Gore Bay at Simpson Funeral Home on Wednesday, March 27, 2024 between 6 to 9 pm. Funeral will be at St. Andrews United Church on Thursday, March 28, 2024 at 11 am. Friends and family please join us at Silver Water Community Hall to celebrate Arthur’s life with some refreshments and to share memories.
