Walker; Raymond Hugh

Surrounded by his loving family Raymond Hugh Walker of Markdale, passed away peacefully on Monday, October 12,2026 in his 74th year. Raymond was the beloved husband of Janice (nee Cockburn), with whom he shared 49 wonderful years of marriage. He was a loving father to Jayme, Shane, Bethany (Jago), Cody and Wade and a cherished Papa to Jasper and Scarlett Jago. Raymond was the dear brother of Bill(Gert) Pernokis, Mary-Ann Vella, Rose Lincoln, and Heather Walker. Uncle to many nieces and nephews. Predeceased by his infant son Brandon and his beloved parents, Lauchlin and Evelyn Walker (nee. Plumley)

Raymond devoted his life to his family, taking great pride in being a husband, father and Papa. He spent more than 25 years driving for the TTC before retiring to his love of farming and the country life. He started farming on a property in Bolton ON, eventually buying and moving his family to a farm near Markdale in 1988. After severing some property from the home farm, he passionately assisted in building a house for his daughter and grandchildren. A handyman at heart, he was happiest puttering around his barn and was always happy to lend a hand to a friend or neighbour. His witty sense of humour, calm nature and willingness to help will be fondly remembered by all those who knew him.

Cremation has taken place and a celebration of life will be held at the Flesherton Kinplex, 102 Highland Drive, Flesherton, ON on Friday, October 23rd from 1:00-3:00pm, with a time of shared memories at 2:00pm.. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions to Grey Sauble Conservation Authority or Sick kids Hospital would be greatly appreciated. Online donations and condolences at www.fawcettfuneralhome.ca

The holiday season is beginning and for some of us, it looks different this year. Missing someone can make you wonder what the season will be like without them.

You don’t need to plan your way out of grief. But you can make things a little easier by giving yourself fewer decisions later. Consider which gatherings or traditions might feel tough, let someone you trust know what support would help, and make plans you can change if you need to.

You might keep a tradition you know, or you might try something new this year. It’s okay if you haven’t decided yet.

Feel free to save this post to look back on as the holidays get closer, or share it with someone who could use a reminder that they have options.

Betts; Gary Douglas

In his 69th year, surrounded by family on Saturday, October 3, 2026, at Brightshores Health System, Meaford, after a short but courageous battle with cancer. Father of Stephanie. Beloved son of Phyllis (nee Tennant) and the late Murray (2025). Brother of Leonard, Scott (Tanya), Mary Jean (Darryl) Verbeek and the late Brian (survived by his wife Crystal). Survived by many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Gary was the first born to Murray and Phyllis and spent many of his younger years helping on the farm. He loved his career driving truck, starting off in long-haul before moving back to Grey County and taking on day hauls. In his spare time, he could be found hunting, fishing or working on his trucks. Gary was a loyal friend, always generously helping when needed. His kindness and animated story telling will never be forgotten.

The family invites you to join them on Friday, October 9 at 11:00am at Salem Cemetery, Eugenia for a graveside service followed by a gathering of friends and family at Rock Mills Baptist Church from 12:00-2:00pm.

What is the difference between a funeral and a celebration of life, and can a family choose to have both?

Although the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, they can describe different types of gatherings. A funeral is often held shortly after a death and may follow a more formal structure, while a celebration of life is typically less formal and may take place weeks or months later.
Some families choose one, while others hold a funeral followed by a celebration of life at a later date. There is no single right way to remember someone. What matters is creating an opportunity for family and friends to gather, share memories, and honour their life in a meaningful way.

Sometimes, the better choice is simply the one that gives you and your family a little more peace of mind. 🤍Whether that...

Sometimes, the better choice is simply the one that gives you and your family a little more peace of mind. 🤍

Whether that means having an honest conversation about your funeral wishes, giving yourself permission to approach the holidays differently while grieving, or making sure you have protection in place before travelling, a little preparation can make difficult situations easier to navigate.

Through GFD, travel assistance plans are also available for families who want additional support in place when travelling away from home. GFD offers Travel Assistance Plans alongside its other pre-planning products. (GFD Financial Products)

Planning ahead doesn’t mean expecting the worst. It means making sure the people you love have fewer decisions to make during an already difficult time.

If you have questions about pre-planning, travel protection, or documenting your wishes, our team is always here to help.
