Martin Joseph Foy, 81, loving husband, father, brother and grandfather died peacefully on September 25th, 2024, at Georgian Bay Seniors Lodge in Penetanguishene, Ontario. He took his last breath in the presence of his son, Darryl Foy, and daughter, Melissa Ambrose. Martin Foy died after a five-year battle with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.
He was predeceased by his loving wife of 50 years, Linda Kelvin Foy, and his parents, Joseph and Catherine. Marty is survived by his younger brother and sister-in-law, Leo and Anne Foy; his son and daughter-in-law, Darryl and Andrea Foy; his daughter and son-in-law, Melissa and Jason Ambrose; and his two grandchildren, Russell and Arlynn Ambrose.
Marty was born on June 3rd, 1943, in Toronto Ontario. Marty, forever known as a ‘troublemaker’ in the best sense, had boundless amounts of energy that he channelled into a lifelong passion of playing competitive sports, especially football and golf. Marty prided himself on a successful career in sales and eventually ownership of a battery redistribution company.
Marty’s life forever changed, in the early 1960s, when he met the love of his life, Linda, at the Etobicoke Collegiate Institute. Marty and Linda’s love spanned decades wherein their relationship was defined by friendship, laughter, companionship and trust. Marty and Linda raised a small family in Lorne Park, Ontario, and resided in Collingwood, Ontario, during their retirement years. It is easy to say that there was no Marty without a Linda in his life. Marty received the most joy out of the simple things in life like playing a round of golf, going for walks, reading the newspaper, laughing with friends and spending time with family. We love and miss you, Dad. Your sense of humour, vibrancy, generosity and love for family will be forever etched in our memory and hearts. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to the Alzheimer’s Society of Canada.
Additionally Marty’s daughter, Melissa, will be running in the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon to raise money, in his name, for the Alzheimer’s Society of Toronto. Please see link raceroster.com
