Douglas Franklin Bock of Kincardine, passed away at his home in Beverly Hills, Florida, on November 13th, 2022, in his 83rd year.

Doug was born and raised in Kincardine. He met Lauraine on a blind date and they were married in 1962. Doug was active in the Kinsmen Club, Masonic Lodge and classic car club and had a lifelong passion for classic cars and motorcycles. His other hobbies included photography, boating and home improvement.
Doug’s thirty one year career with the Province of Ontario property assessment program started in 1964 when he was hired as a Property Assessor for the Town of Kincardine. His career included postings in Goderich, Pembroke and Brantford before returning to the area as Regional Assessment Commissioner, Bruce and Grey counties in Owen Sound. Doug’s success as a leader was rooted in treating everyone with honesty, integrity and dignity.
In retirement Doug and Lauraine enjoyed traveling across Canada and the USA, spending time with their extended family and winters at their home in Florida.
Plans for a future celebration of life memorial service in Kincardine will be forthcoming in the spring.
