Thomas Laurence Daly
DALY, Thomas Laurence (Tom) – Together as a family we said farewell as Dad left us peacefully on Friday, March 15, 2019, at CAMA Woodlands LTC in Burlington, Ontario. Born in Hamilton on November 27, 1932, Tom is predeceased by Josephine (2000), his wife of 45 years, and his youngest child Jonathan (1988). Survived by his children Tom (Pam) of Hamilton, Tony (Nancy) of Burlington, Colleen of Edmonton, and Carmie (Joe Drvaric) of Burlington; and his sister Mary Harper of Hamilton. Cherished grandfather to Tom, Jon (Dana), Laura, Jordanne, Sara, Hayley, Joseph and Anthony, and great-grandfather to Acacia, Carter, Araiah, and Clair. A long-time resident of Burlington, Dad was employed for over 35 years at Stelco Hilton Works Engineering, and was a member of St. Raphael’s parish since 1969. Dad was also an avid sculptor and woodworker and loved spending time at the Burlington Art Centre perfecting his hobby. Words cannot express our tremendous and heartfelt thanks to the staff at CAMA Woodlands, who embraced Dad as part of their family and made his last years perfectly idyllic, and for the outstanding care they gave him while in residence. Tom was the most wonderful, sweet, kind and gentle man, and we were so very blessed to have him as our father, and we knew he loved us, just as we loved him! Visitation at SMITH’S FUNERAL HOME, 485 Brant Street (one block North of City Hall), BURLINGTON (905-632-3333), on Thursday, March 21st from 4-8p.m. Funeral service will be held in the funeral home chapel on Friday, March 22nd at 10:30a.m. Reception to follow.
