Hastings, Frank McKay
December 31st, 2020
Passed away peacefully at St. Mary’s Hospital, Kitchener on Thursday, December 31, 2020 in his 96th year. Cherished husband of the late Norma Hastings (2020) for 68 years. Cherished father of Anne Bourne (Ed), Christopher Hastings (Wendy), and the late Cameron Hastings (2020). Proud Grandpa of Frank Bourne, Ella Bourne, Harry Bourne, Stephanie Hastings (Leon Tomlin), Jennifer Harris (John), Emily Hastings, Melissa Hastings (Steven Madsen), and Jason Hastings (Alex Mote). Loving Great-Grandpa of six great-grandchildren. He will also be missed by many nieces, nephews and extended family members and friends. Frank will be remembered as a family man who hosted many great parties. His sense of humour will be missed by all who knew him. Frank spent many hours golfing, curling and playing many hands of bridge. He was an avid woodworker, loved to garden and enjoyed a well-manicured lawn. Frank was a Canadian who served as a Royal Engineer with the Scottish in WWII; he was very proud of his service. Cremation has taken place. Due to the COVID-19 restrictions, a celebration of life will take place at a later date, when a party that would make Frank proud can be held. In lieu of flowers, those wishing to make a donation in memory of Frank are asked to consider the MS Society of Canada or a charity of choice.
