Francis Clinton
CROSWELL
In loving memory of Francis Clinton
CROSWELL,
March 20 1916-January 21 2001.
Clint CROSWELL, a resident of Kagawong, died at the Mindemoya
Hospital on Sunday January 21, 2001 at the age of 84 years. He was
born in Toronto,
son of the late Francis and Grace
{THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON}
CROSWELL.
Clint attended school in Toronto, studying first,
mechanical design, then became a student of accounts with a firm of
Chartered Accountants in Toronto from 1938-1940. He served in the
Navy from 1940-45, and following the war, returned to accounting,
moving to South Porcupine to specialize in Mine accounting. In 1948,
he joined the Field Auditing staff of United Co-Operatives, and in
the early 50's was an auditor for the Manitoulin Livestock
Co-Operative. In 1957, Clint joined the staff of League Central of
Ontario as Chief Examiner for Credit Unions in Ontario, retiring in
1980 as Vice-President covering Examinations and Field Services.
Clint also had many outside interests, and in 1953 became active in
the Boy Scouts, until he retired as regional Commissioner for Greater
Toronto Region and a Provincial Commissioner. He was awarded the
Medal of Merit and the Silver Acorn by the then Governor General. An
active member of the Manitoulin Navy Vets, he served as Secretary,
Treasurer and Chairman. He was also an avid golfer, and had been
given a life membership to the Manitoulin Island Country Club. Clint
was involved in the organization of
LAMBAC, and was its first
Chairman. While in South Porcupine, skiing and his dog team were
not only sports, but hobbies he enjoyed. He always said that dog
teams didn't break down like most snowmobiles, and you always got
where you were going. He also enjoyed travelling and cruises, having
visited many ports. He was a member of St. Paul's on the Hill United
Church. Clint loved playing card games, in particular, poker and
euchre. His enjoyment in winning these games, earned him quite a
reputation for, shall we say, sleazy and underhanded tricks.
Dearly loved husband of Helen
{HILLIARD} of Kagawong, loving father
and father in law of Clinton (Kit) and Karen
CROSWELL of Oakville
Valerie and Gary
MORRISON of Brampton, Wendy and John
KENNEDY of

HARRISON,
Kristen and Matt
CROSWELL, Tracy
CROSWELL, Laura and Emily

KENNEDY and Digger
CLARK, and great
granddaughter Kendal.

{GALLOP}
CROSWELL,
daughter Karen
HARRISON and brother Robert.
