Duane Sheppard, a Royal Military College graduate and electrical engineer from McMaster University, died unexpectedly on Monday, August 12th, 2024 at the age of 89 years old.
Duane is survived by Margaret, the love of his life and wife of 65 years, his three daughters whom he adored, Carol, Cathy and Lynn (Kevin Renouf), and his three grandchildren, Jillian, Nathan and Jonah of whom he was utmost proud.
Duane was born in Calgary on April 19th, 1935. He lived and worked in Montreal before retiring to Brockville in 1993. He and Margaret forged great friendships there and built a welcoming home -there was no better place that Dad would want to be.
Duane was a devoted husband and father. He enjoyed traveling, having visited much of the world. He loved his cottage in the Laurentians; fishing sailing and canoeing. He was an avid reader, bridge player, curler, and golfer. He would often reminisce about his days in the Canadian Air Force flying Sabers. He excelled at computers, Sudoku and Crosswords (in pen!). Duane was a true gentleman.
His family and friends are devastated by their loss. He will be forever missed and will live forever in their hearts.
A celebration of Duane’s life is planned for 1:00 pm on Tuesday, August 20th, 2024 at the Irvine Memorial Chapel at Roselawn in Maitland, 2451 County Rd. 15.
Donations to the Alzheimer Society of Lanark Leeds Grenville would be greatly appreciated.
