TSC Volunteer – Larry Knight

With a heavy heart we report the peaceful passing of TSC Volunteer, Larry Knight, on Wednesday February 17th at MacKenzie Health Palliative Care where he was surrounded by family – his daughter Lesley, son Adam, mom Betty and partner Anne.

Larry was a very active Member of TSC where he enjoyed Pickleball, Carpet Bowling and Darts as well as volunteering in our Cafe on Friday afternoons until his illness made it too difficult.

Larry will be sorely missed and fondly remembered by his many friends at TSC. Please feel free to leave your comments.
