Obituary
It is with profound sadness that the family announces the passing of Basil Meredyth Parsons on Monday October 2nd, 2023,
in his 97th year. Basil was predeceased by his beloved wife of 58 years, Vera, in 2013.
He will be deeply missed by his children Susan (Shawn), Douglas (Debbie), and Donald. He is also lovingly remembered by his grandchildren Rebecca (Matt), Shannon (Tyler), Tyler (Ashley), Jordan (Lina), Andrew (Meghan), Kelsey (Chris), Robert and Cody. Basil was also blessed with seven greatgrandchildren, Anna, William, Elliot, Spencer, Hayden, Ethan and Ian.
Basil lived a long, rewarding, and good life full of love and adventure. He was born and raised in Estevan, Saskatchewan. He spent two years working in the Canadian Arctic before settling in the Toronto area with his bride, a Toronto girl, Vera. There they raised their three children. Basil was a family man and a successful businessman who had many varied interests and talents including travel, scuba diving and music.
Visitation will be held at the McKersie-Early Funeral Home (114 Main St. E., Milton) on Sunday, October 22 beginning at 12:00pm, followed by a service celebrating Basil’s life at 1:00pm.
There will be a private family interment service at Omagh Presbyterian Church Cemetery afterwards.
