April 17, 1939 - July 13, 2022
It is with great sadness and fond memories of a life well lived that we announce Homer’s passing at Trillium Care Community in Kingston, peacefully with family at his side.
He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 62 years Wilhelmine (nee Reynolds) and his children; Charlotte Howes (George), Pam Hansen (Chris), Ray Card (Joanne), and Rhonda Carkner (Kevin). Homer was a loving and playful grandfather to Travis Howes (Kim), Stephanie Hetherington (Robert), Nicholas Hansen (Jessica), Emily Fitzpatrick (Tristan), Julia Card, Clayton, Brayden (Alyssa), and Ben Carkner and great-grandpa to Ethan Hansen. He will also be missed by many nieces and nephews.
Homer proudly worked at DuPont in Kingston for 40 years. He was an avid sports enthusiast never missing the opportunity to swing a club, cast a rod or throw a ball. His other passion was playing his guitar and singing with family and friends.
Come celebrate his life on August 21st from 2pm to 4pm at the Verona Lions Hall with an ice cream treat, Homer’s favourite.
