It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of
Chris Sinclair, age 68, in the comfort of
his own home, surrounded by loved ones, peacefully, on Monday October
18th 2021, in Amherst NS and was predeceased by
his parents and his brother Rob.
Chris, born in Kingston, Ontario, January
13th, 1953 was the son of the late George and
Lilian (Shambrook) Sinclair.
Chris grew up in Kingston Ontario and spent much of his youth
and adult years as an avid outdoorsman and a proud family man.
Although Chris had a full career as a dedicated steel worker,
he had had a love for life, enjoyed history, his Wilton Cheese Factory
curds and was an avid outdoorsman. His love for hunting and
fishing was only surpassed by his love for his wife, children, grand
and great grandchildren.
Chris would often recount his adventures with friends out in
the wilderness, hunting and fishing; spend countless hours talking
about history, but would truly light up talking about his 3 daughters,
his loving and doting wife, Betty, and his grand and great grand
children.
Chris will leave an unquestionable legacy to those that knew
him, especially to those that were fortunate to call him family or
friend. Chris had an infectious smile and laugh, and when added to his
personality, created a persona that would be hard pressed to be
matched by the kind of personality that is often only found in
characters written by a literary genius. Chris was always
quick to listen, to show others support and gave advice that was truly
thoughtful and impactful. He was one to never command
respect from others but truly earned others respect unconditionally
through his actions.
The world has truly lost a special and one-of-a-kind
person. The family has not only lost a patriarch that would
do anything to protect and provide for them, but they also lost a true
friend. He always opened his heart to everyone. He
will be missed. He was always a guiding light, principled
and caring. His guiding spirit, memories, life lessons and
words will be remembered, followed, honoured and
everlasting.
Chris, was a proud, loving husband and will be missed
everyday by all those that knew him.
Chris is survived and will be deeply missed by his loving and
caring wife, Betty (Morash) whom they just celebrated their
38th wedding anniversary on October
15th. Chris is also survived by his
daughters Elizabeth (Michael), Kristen, Sherrie (Shane), grandchildren
Kevin, Christopher, Tyler, and Maddy; great grandchildren Paisley and
Sadie.
The family would like to extend a special recognition to the
exceptional medical staff for their personal and dedicated
support to us and more importantly, to Chris.
