Of Wheatley, passed away peacefully September 26th, 2021, at the age of 88. Preceded in death by his eternal companion and first wife, Martha (2005). Beloved husband of 13 years to Barbara Pinch (nee Ockey). Father to Rosalie (Chris) Hodgson, Royal Pinch Mathews (Corinne) and Jay (Tanya) Pinch. Loving grandfather of Michelle, Janelle and Danielle Taylor, Chanelle and Jordana Mathews, Leah, Nicole and April Pinch. Great Grandfather of Nicholas, Jaime, Isabella, Sophia, Jocelynn, Jace, McKinley, Alexis, Tyson, Ellie, Elijah and Isabella. Great-great Grandfather of Noah and Myles. Hadley was fortunate to have a large extended family; stepfather to John James Renick, David (Lori) Renick, Glen (Maggie) Renick and Joni Renick. Step-grandfather of Andrew, Michelle, Paul, Lindsey, Lauren, Logan, Sarah and Gracy. Hadley will be missed by so many and fondly remembered for his amazing sense of humor, quick wit, silly puns, and fantastic jokes.
Hadley graduated from Leamington District High School and was retired from his lifelong job at H.J. Heinz Co. His passion for golf was enjoyed right into the last years of his time here on earth. The one thing that Hadley would want to be remembered most for would be his love for his Savior and Redeemer. As a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, he often took great pleasure in teaching the gospel to anyone and everyone in hopes that they too could experience the joy that he had been so blessed to feel because of his faith.
Visitation for Hadley will be held at Kendrick Funeral Home, Wheatley, on Thursday, September 30, 2021, from 2-4 and 6-8 p.m. Masks are mandatory for all who enter the funeral home and Covid screening will be taking place. The funeral service and burial will be private, for family only, as numbers are limited at church due to Covid regulations.
