HAROLD OWEN KING March 28, 1928 - August 1, 2005 Harold was born in Winnipeg to Anne and Owen King of Elmwood and spent his youth there. He worked for Swift Canadian Co. before being transferred to Montreal in 1950. He returned to marry Lorrie and they lived in Montreal, Quebec City and Toronto. Harold was later with IPI Chemicals and retired in 1986. His hobbies were cooking and fishing, so the King has gone on his last long fishing trip. He leaves behind a loving wife, Lorraine and sons, Tim (Bonnie Gent) and Brett, sisters-in-law, Beryl Millar of Calgary, Lois Colbeck and brother-in-law Les Colbeck of Burlington, brother-in-law Bob Millar (Anne) and several nieces and nephews and also a long list of relatives and friends who delighted in his happy nature and unfailing good humour. We will miss this smiling, cheery man. A celebration of Hal's life will be held on Wednesday, August 3, at The Ogden Funeral Home at 1:00 p.m., Agincourt Chapel, 4164 Sheppard Ave. E., Toronto, ON. Bring a memory. Donations to the Heart and Stroke Fund or a charity of your choice.
