BROCKLEBANK, Norman Scoffield 1917-2008, Veteran WW II -
Peacefully passed away while sleeping, at Barrie Manor on Friday, September 26, 2008, in his 91st year. Beloved husband of Lyla Lambertus for 65 wonderful years. Adored and admired father of Gayle and her husband Peter Kirk of Barrie. Cherished grandfather of two granddaughters, whom he loved deeply, Katie Kirk of Barrie and Megan Kirk of Victoria, BC. Survived by his brother Roy and wife Agnes of Listowel, several nieces and nephews. Predeceased by his parents Parker and Isabella Brocklebank of Cargill, brother Clarence of Elmwood and sister Isobel Procknow of Kitchener.
Norman and Lyla lived in Orangeville for 52 years and then moved to Barrie in 1998 to be with their family. Norm was a motor mechanic all his life. He served 4 years in the Army during WWII with the Royal Canadian Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (RCEME) from 1942-1946. They moved to Orangeville and he worked for R.D. Bryan and Co. as the Service Manager for 10 years. Norm went into business for himself, and was the Mercury Dealer from 1957-1973. He worked for Gordon Davenport Automotive Supply from 1975 to retirement in 1982.
Norm will be remembered fondly by his family as a wonderful friend; a gentle man and guiding light, always honest, steadfast and predictable.
The family sincerely appreciates the care by doctors and staff of the Royal Victoria Hospital, Veterans Affairs Canada, Whispering Pines Retirement Residence and especially the staff of Barrie Manor. We have been so appreciative of the professional assistance of the Community Care Access Center in Barrie. Special, loving care has been provided by St. Elizabeth Health Care Simcoe over the past many months, which allowed Norm to remain as independent as possible. Diligent and wonderful care has been provided lately by Bayshore Nurses to assist in his comfort and peaceful transition to his end of a wonderful life. We have been truly blessed.
Friends called at the Dods & McNair Funeral Home and Chapel, Orangeville. Funeral Service was held on Thursday October 2, 2008. Interment Greenwood Cemetery. A tree was planted in memory of Norm in the Dods & McNair Memorial Forest at the Island Lake Conservation Area, Orangeville; dedication service was held on Sunday, September 13th, 2009.
