WATTS, F. John (July 16th, 1925-May 14, 2004)
The moment that you died Dad (Grandpa)
Our hearts split in two,
The one side filled with wonderful memories,
The other died with you.
We often lay awake at night
When the world is fast asleep,
And take a walk down Memory Lane
With tears upon our cheeks.
Remembering you is easy,
We do it every day,
But missing you is heartache
That never goes away.
We hold you tightly in our hearts
And there you will remain,
Life has gone on without you,
But it's never been the same.
For those of you who still have your Dad (Grandpa)
Treat him with tender care,
For you'll never know the emptiness
When you turn and he's not there.
Forever cherished, remembered and deeply missed, Doris and Bill, Alf, Cynthia, Alanna and Gavin.

son begs hit-run driver to surrender
Man sped up after hitting victim, witness says
Family waited for him to celebrate Father's Day
By Jim WILKES, Staff Reporter
Shahid SALEEM wants the hit-and-run driver who killed his father to do the right thing and surrender to police.
"It's shameful," SALEEM said yesterday as mourners gathered at his parents' Brampton home.
"We're just stunned that this guy just took off, didn't even bother to see if my father was alive or dead.
"I'm sure it's eating him up inside. I just want him to turn himself in."
As family members waited to celebrate Father's Day with him on Sunday night, Akhtar SALEEM was run down in west-end Toronto by a car that not only didn't stop, but sped up as his body crumpled to the street several metres from the impact.
The 65-year-old cabbie, who owned two airport taxis, was helping guide another vehicle out of a repair garage on Dufferin Street, just north of Rogers Rd., at about 10 p.m. so a tow truck could back SALEEM's disabled taxi into the shop.
His taxi had broken down earlier in the evening on Merton Street, near Yonge St. and Davisville. Ave.
Tow-truck driver Baldev Singh SEKHON said SALEEM was standing in the northbound lanes, directing the vehicle coming out of the garage, when he was struck by an oncoming car.
He said he heard "a big noise" and turned to see SALEEM's body rolling from the hood of the car onto the windshield, before tumbling to the pavement.
"He never slowed down until the body fell from the car, then he gave it more speed," SEKHON said of the fleeing driver.
"People stop if they hit an animal. But this was a man. The driver was stupid not to stop. He has no brain."
Det. Wally WATTS of traffic services said police are hunting a grey, two-door, early 1990s Volkswagen Cabriolet convertible. He said it likely has massive damage to its grille, hood and windshield, and the fabric roof is possibly ripped.
"The▲ driver not only didn't stop, he accelerated away," WATTS said. "He was in a real panic. Fear set in and he pushed the escape button.
"He did everything he could to get away from there and just left a man to die and bleed to death in the centre of the roadway."
SALEEM suffered massive head and internal injuries. He was dead at the scene.
Shahid SALEEM said his father was a devoted family man who came to Canada from Pakistan in 1970, raised three children and loved his role as grandfather to five youngsters.
Family members were waiting to celebrate Father's Day with him when he called to say his taxi had broken down.
Police brought the bad news to their door at 2 a.m. yesterday.
"We're still in shock," he said.
"My Dad put us through university and made sure we got good education so we could make something of ourselves."
"He liked working. It gave him a purpose to do something. He was a fitness buff and worked out an hour each day."
He said family members are racked with the agony of not knowing whether his father suffered or why the motorist fled.
Anyone with information about the accident can call police at 416-808-1900 or Crime Stoppers at 416-222-8477.

Three people killed in accident
Driver, 20, a University of Toronto commerce student
Passengers, 15 and 16, died at scene
By Tracy HUFFMAN and Matthew KWONG, Staff Reporters
Slippery roads, poor visibility and high speed are likely contributors to a pre-dawn car crash yesterday that left three people dead in North York.
A white Buick spun out of control around 5: 20 a.m., hitting a light standard and striking a home on Willowdale Ave., near Yonge St. and Finch Ave. E., said city police Det. Wally WATTS of traffic services.
"Speed, weather, steering. It could be fatigue at that time of the morning," WATTS said.
"We're looking at all of the factors -- nothing immediately jumps out."
The 20-year-old driver, Hong-Jae LEE, of Toronto, was rushed to hospital with life-threatening injuries.
He died nearly 12 hours later, at 4: 25 p.m., at Sunnybrook hospital.
The two passengers, a 15-year-old boy and a 16-year-old girl, were both pronounced dead at the scene.
Toronto police said they are trying to contact the next of kin with the help of the Korean consulate general.
LEE was a conscientious student at the University of Toronto, Scarborough campus, who loved dogs, his grief-stricken brother-in-law said.
"He was just a normal kid going into his first year of university," Cesar OH said.
"He was a good uncle to my son, Isaac," OH said, adding that the commerce student would often offer to babysit the 1-year-old.
Last night, the family gathered with close Friends from LEE's church as well as a priest and shared their memories.
"He's funny and I think he was his mom's favourite," OH said. "Everybody knows he was the one who liked to talk during family dinners... to break the ice."
In high school, LEE was an A-student who volunteered at a seniors' home and he also planned to continue doing volunteer work in university, Ohio said.
"My mother-in-law is having a really hard time with the shock. It's shocking for everybody, but she's the mother," OH said. "It's going to be a while."
WATTS said police didn't know where the victims had been or where they were headed.
For several hours yesterday morning, yellow tape and police cruisers cordoned off the area around the crash as members of the Toronto police traffic reconstruction squad worked in the rain photographing, measuring and examining the scene.
The back of the Buick Le Sabre slammed into the brown brick home on the southeast corner of Willowdale and Bishop Aves.
The white car remained in the front yard of 857 Willowdale Ave. while officers attempted to determine how the accident happened.
Police believe the vehicle was travelling south on Willowdale Ave. when it struck a metal light standard.
No one was injured inside the home.
But police said one man had just left for work, missing the incident by minutes.
Residents of the area said drivers use many streets in the neighbourhood as shortcuts to avoid heavier traffic on Yonge.
Anyone with information on the accident is asked to call traffic services at 416-808-1900.
