MUNT, Thomas Errol Munt - 9-Feb-1943 - 28-Sep-2024

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Thomas Errol Munt on September 28th, after a brave battle with pulmonary fibrosis. He left this world peacefully, surrounded by love.

Tom is survived by his devoted wife and best friend, Beverley Munt. He was a cherished father to his children, Steve Munt and Suzy (Richard) Meadows, and a beloved poppa to his seven grandchildren: Jessica, Laura, Steph, Madison, Noah, Kassandra, and Carlyn and two great grandchildren Brooklynn and Isabelle . Each of them held a special place in his heart.

Known for his infectious smile and warm laughter, Tom had a remarkable ability to light up any room he entered.

A dedicated employee of CP Rail, Tom took great pride in training and mentoring many staff members, leaving a lasting impact on those who followed in his footsteps.

Tom Munt was truly one of a kind, and his absence will be felt deeply by all who knew and loved him. His legacy of kindness and joy will live on in the hearts of his family and friends.

PHILLIPS, Stephen James Phillips - 14-Aug-1952 - 1-Oct-2024

Stephen James Phillips passed away peacefully on October 1, 2024, at the age of 72. He is survived by his loving wife of 42 years, Cathie, his devoted sons Adam (Sara), Andrew, and Robb (Karen), his brother Greg (Nancy), his cherished grandson Sylas, and his pampered pooch Milly.

From his early days growing up in Don Mills, to his career at Coca-Cola, and subsequently building his own successful temperature monitoring business, Steve will be fondly remembered by the many people he encountered throughout his life.

A man deeply committed to his family and friends, Steve’s passion for life was evident in everything he did. One of his proudest projects was building the family cottage, where he found joy in watching his loved ones spend weekends together—even though his sons jokingly referred to it as a "work camp" while it was being built. While Steve was known for his stubbornness—a trait that, while sometimes challenging, ultimately strengthened the love and respect of those closest to him.

Steve leaves behind a legacy of hard work, dedication, and love that will be remembered by all who knew him. He was truly a unique character, always ready with an interesting story to tell—whether it was about conspiracy theories or correcting the nightly news. His stories, and the joy he took in sharing them, will be deeply missed by everyone who had the pleasure of hearing them.

A celebration of Steve’s life will take place on November 10, 2024, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at McEachnie Funeral Home, 28 Old Kingston Road, Ajax, Ontario, L1T 2Z7.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Steve's memory to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada.

Those we love we never lose,
 For always they will be,
Loved, remembered, treasured,
Always in our memory.
