SWEET, Michael Robert Sweet, Dr.  -

March 17, 1943 ~ January 25, 2024

 

Known to friends and family as Mike, passed away on January 25, 2024, due to complications from Parkinson's Disease.

 

Mike is survived by his wife, Jacki Sweet, his daughter, Hannah Sweet (Aaron Aston), his son, Tim Sweet (Magda Warczok), and his granddaughter, Jessica Sarantopoulos (Wesley Copp).

 

With a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Cambridge University, Mike brought his intellect and expertise to Canada in 1973, where he spent most of his career at Geac Computer Corporation Ltd, contributing significantly to the development of operating systems and programming languages.

 

Mike resided in Uxbridge, Ontario, where he enjoyed many outdoor activities. He was an avid mountain biker and was the first person to map and publish the trail system at Durham Forest.

 

The family is grateful for the care and support provided by the staff at ReachView and Uxbridge Hospital.

In accordance with the family’s wishes, there will be no service.

 

Mike's memory will live on in the hearts of his loved ones. Funeral arrangements with Low & Low Funeral Home in Uxbridge.
