RICHMOND, Ed….
Reverend, Lt. Col. (Ret.) Edward S. Richmond CD BA MA
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Edward Samuel Richmond on Saturday, the 14th of October, 2017. Ed will be missed for his sunny disposition, contagious smile, laughter and his enthusiasm for life. He is survived by his wife of 38 years; Joan, his three children; Edward, Bryan and Mari (Touche), stepsons; David and Richard Monkhouse, his eight grandchildren; Ahren, Cara, Noah, Alexandre, Adrien, Sebastien, Will and Max and his great grandchild; Maison, born earlier this year. Ed was born in Calgary on December 31, 1933. He was a gregarious, athletic young man who during his military career served time in all three forces and lived all across Canada. His first post was in the Navy immediately after high school, followed by a period as a navigator in the Air Force in the 1950’s, and ending by many years in the Arm signal corps during which he attained the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. He enjoyed learning and over the years he obtained a BA degree in Political Sciences from Queen’s University, a BA in Religious Studies and an MA in Theology from University of Manitoba and an MA in Religious Studies from University of Windsor. These diplomas led to Ed’s second career, one that had attracted him from an early age, that of becoming an Anglican priest. Beginning in the mid 1980’s until his retirement, Ed presided over many parishes including Georgian Bay, the agricultural region surrounding Blenheim, Hanover and Durham, Ontario and Gallup, New Mexico. Ed enjoyed stamp collecting and giving back to the community as an active Shriner, helping the organization in their continual drive to raise money in order to assist sick children. Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Ed’s Life will be held on Sunday, October 22, 2017 from 2-4 pm at the A. Millard George Funeral Home – Reception Centre, 60 Ridout Street South, London (Southeast corner of the parking lot). Any donations may be made to the Shriners Hospitals for Children, 468 Colborne Street, London, ON N6B 2T3. Online condolences, memories and photographs shared at www.amgfh.com
