SISSING,
Roelof
We are thankful for the life of Roelof
SISSING, and that we were
allowed to share part of his long life of one hundred and five
years. To be able to think of all the beautiful moments we shared
with him we are especially thankful. He is gone from us now,
on Tuesday, February 28th, 2006, but he will forever be in the
hearts of those he touched. Roelof was born on July 22, 1900
in The Netherlands. He married Alida Henderika
SPIER in 1928,
the love of his life. They started their lives together on board
ship, the Dageraad II, and raised six children on board. When
the war broke out, and in the middle of the bombardment, he and
mom did their best to keep us safe. In 1944 when the Germans
confiscated his ship he kept us safe and together. Then in 1951
two of his daughters married and came to Canada. The following
year he brought the rest of his family to Canada and started
over. He believed in keeping the family together and safe. The
family grew with more marriages and of course grandchildren.
In October of 1982, the love of his life Alida died and in 1983
he lost his son Jurrien. Community service has always been part
of his life. He served as a medic in World War I, and a volunteer
fireman in Holland. He served with the Saint John's Ambulance in
Ingersoll for many years, also feeding patients at Alexandra
Hospital. He received the Governor General's Award, Heart of
Gold Award and Ingersoll Citizen's Award for his services. Dear
father of Barteldina and her husband Anton
VANDER
HOEK of Port
Colborne, Henderika and her husband John
ONBELET of Ingersoll,
Alida and her husband Paul
HOUGHTON of Comox, British Columbia,
Marten and his wife Patricia of Sweaburg and Roelie and her husband
Bernard DILLIOTT of London. Loved by 21 grandchildren, 35 great-grandchildren
and one great-great-grandchild. Also predeceased by one great-grand_son
Matthew ONBELET (1981.) Friends will be received at the McBeath-Dynes
Funeral Home, 246 Thames Street South, Ingersoll, Friday 2-4
and 7-9 p.m. where service will be held on Saturday, March 4,
2006 at 1: 30 p.m. Reverend John

lieu of flowers memorial donations to First Baptist Church Memorial
Fund or charity of your choice would be appreciated.

THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON,
Ken -- I Remember
By Pat SISSON,
Page
S11
Pat SISSON of Toronto also writes about Ken
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON.
I am another one of those people who had the pleasure of walking
my dog in the same part of town as Mr.
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON did. One could
always count on him to ask how your dogs were, or to bend down
to share some of the love. He cherished his dogs and was eager
to tell stories of their lives and adventures. He had been known
to change business meetings in order to spend time with his "pack."
To hear that he died with one of those treasured animals with
him brings some comfort.
A couple of summers back, I was walking around the park with
my nephew when we came on Mr.
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON.
After having yet another
wonderful talk about our pets, we went on our way. "That man
is a billionaire," I told my nephew, at which point he replied:
"Aunt Patty, you tell the best stories!"

SISSONS,
Joan (née
GALLAGHER)
It is with deepest sorrow that the family of Joan
SISSONS (nee
GALLAGHER) announces her passing on May 16, 2006. Joan is survived
by her two daughters, Jackie and Sharlene, six grandchildren,
2 great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews. How do
you sum up a life in an obituary notice Joan was a mom to Sharlene,
Jackie and their husbands, Tim and Bob. She was "Nan" to Jack,
Bradley, Barry, Sean, Kathryn and Bryan. To Maddie and Jane,
she was "great Nan." She was kind, smart, funny and always loving.
She had such a zest for life! She listened to your problems and
never judged you. She offered advice only when you requested
it. She saw good in everyone and she loved her family above all
else. Mom was an avid bridge player (some would say a card shark),
devoured a book every day and never tired of learning and experiencing
new things. In 1992 the love of her life, our father Jack, died
after a brief battle with cancer. We never thought Mom could
survive such a loss as our parents were so devoted to each other,
but she forged ahead with life. Three years after Dad's death,
she sold the home he built and moved to London to be closer to
Jackie, her eldest daughter, and her family. We thought she'd
be nearer to us and we could help her with things, but in reality,
she was the one who always helped us. We don't know what we would
have done without her living so nearby. Mom made new Friends
in London (Mary, Moira, Rachel, Bizerka, Mary Kathryn and Elaine
to name a few). She loved getting together with her Friends,
Connie and John, for a game of bridge. We had to each throw in
a dollar before every bridge game, and more often than not, she
went home with the pot! Our, dear Friends, John and Debbie, became
her dear Friends as well. We always said she was a teenager trapped
in an older body. Newcomers kept her busy and she enjoyed the
many Friends she made through the organization. She belonged
to St. Pius the X Church and found great comfort in attending
weekly mass. Every year she flew out to Calgary to spend Christmas
with Sharlene and her family. It became a tradition after Dad
died. She delighted in all the activities of her grandchildren
and they thought Nan was "cool." She kept in touch with her Friends
and relatives in Falconbridge and area (Betty, Agnes, Norma,
Bob, Lana and Joe Mulligan come to mind). We're so grateful we
had Mom for as long as we did, but if we could multiply the time
by 100, it would still be far too short. Until we see you again,
Mom… Love, your family. As per Mom's request, there will be no
funeral or visitation. Expressions of sympathy or donations (Heart
and Stroke Foundation or a charity of your choice) would be appreciated
and may be made through London Cremation Services, 672-0459 or
online at www.londoncremation.com.
