Parcourez la nécrologie de Peter McGowan Wednesday January 1st 2025 résidant dans la province Ontario pour le détail des funérailles
The family of Peter John McGowan are announcing that after a short illness Pete died January 1, 2025, in Walkerton.
Pete was loved by his wife Jan Briggs-McGowan, his sons Doug McGowan and Geordie McGowan (Vanessa Chard), as well as his stepdaughters Monique Morel-Peseski (Kara Peseski-Morel) and Nicole Whittle (Mark Whittle). He will be greatly missed by grandchildren Alex Bellhouse, John Bellhouse, Samantha Whittle, Katie Whittle, Katlyn McGowan and Kristopher McGowan.
Pete was predeceased by his parents John and Mairiam (Grieve) McGowan, as well as his sister Betty Dubé . Coincidentally his father also died on January 1. He had itchy feet and loved to move so will missed by the many friends he made in North Bay, Sudbury, Coboconk, and Walkerton x2 including lifelong friends Ken Paradine, Barb Woolman, Dave Armstrong many of whom worked with him at Cecil Facer Youth Centre.
He loved his family more than anything in the world except maybe the Detroit Red Wings. He was obsessed with being early and Jan said the only thing he could be late for was his own funeral. He loved his Camps, fishing & hunting especially on Manitoulin, puttering in his workshop and a cold beer (even the .05). He was proud of his Scottish heritage and enjoyed celebrating Robbie Burns Day. He was a social bunny and will be missed by his neighbourhood and Legion friends. He was an active member of the Legion and understood the importance of honouring those that fought for us.
Pete’s Party (as he wanted it called) will be a celebration with all his family and friends at the Walkerton Legion Branch #102 on February 15, 2025, from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. Please join his family in a toast to a life well-lived and please wear red or something to do with his beloved (often frustrating) Red Wings.
An internment will be held in April in North Bay.
As expressions of symapthy, Pete wanted donations to the Walkerton Legion Poppy Fund or the Walkerton District Food Bank. Donations and condolences may be made online at www.cameronfuneralhomes.com
