Milton A. Lindsay
The news of the sudden death of Milton Alexander Lindsay on Monday morning, February 19, at his home on the 9th line of Pakenham Township was received with wide spread regret. Mr. Lindsay was in apparent good health that morning and was walking from the house to the barn when he suffered a fatal attack of coronary thrombosis. Born on the family homestead where all his life was spent, he was the son of Alexander Lindsay and Agnes Fleming. He was in his 74th year. He was married to Ethel Scott also of Pakenham township, who predeceased him in January, 1941. Left to mourn are one daughter, Edith, Mrs. Robert, Toshack of Ramsay Township and one son, Wilfred W. Lindsay, at home. A sister, Tena, Mrs. Sam Cross of Port Coquitlan, B.C., passed away four years ago. Mr. Lindsay never held public office of any kind but was esteemed throughout the district as a quiet kindly man, who had the gift of making friends and not enemies. He was a member of Blakeney United Church. The funeral, which was largely attended, was held on Wednesday, Feb. 21st, at 2 P.M., from his late residence to the Auld Kirk Cemetery. Rev. H. C. Wolfraim officiated at the home and cemetery. The pallbearers were Messrs; Lloyd Dickson, Edward Rose, Jas. Connery, Thorpe Bowes, John McGill and Wm. Wood, Sr. Among the beautiful floral tributes were pieces from Blakeney United Church, Cedar Hill W.I., Ramsay W.I., and Cedar Hill Hunt Club.
