FLITTON, William Richard - (April 9, 1929 - April 5, 2022)
It is with great sadness the family of William (Richard) Flitton announces his peaceful passing at the age of 92.
Predeceased by his wife of 41 years Barbara Edith (nee Beattie) (2002) and his daughter Kathyrn Ann (1967).
Survived by his loving children David, John and Jennifer.
He also had a special place in his heart for The Reverend Dawn Gilby.
Witness to 11 decades, Dad grew up in rural England. As a child, he had a love for bicycling and a deep fascination for all types of planes. He turned that fascination into earning his private pilot's license in 1977 at age 48.
A devoted Blue Jays fan, he followed them from their first pitch in 1977 to Spring Training 2022.
His was a simple life well-lived. We miss you already Dad.
Visitation will be held on Friday April 8th from 10am to Noon at BARNES MEMORIAL FUNERAL HOME , 5295 Thickson Rd. N. Whitby. A private graveside service to follow.
