It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Peter John Acton. Peter was born September 18, 1946 in London, England and passed away at his home unexpectedly on August 14, 2021 at the age of 74. Peter is survived by his beloved wife Brenda Acton, his children Keith (Rae), Debbie (Trevor), and Kate (Bob) along with two grandchildren Dryden and Devynn who often referred to or called Peter “Grumps”. Peter also left behind his two brothers John and Ray along with many extended relatives, and we can’t forget his beloved Fur companion and best mate, Woody! Peter and Brenda moved to Canada on February 6, 1980 with their three children. Peter had a great passion for his work and was highly respected by many colleagues and friends in the Engineering world, although his main love was for the water and sailing.
