Peacefully, in his favourite position, at Lakeridge Health Oshawa, in his 86th year.
Son of Walter and Lillian Fowlie.
Much-loved husband of 63 years to Linda (Jeffery).
Cherished father of Christopher (1988), Terri-Lyn (David), Denise (Paul), and Gayle.
Adored Poppa of Katie, Alex, Sara, and Lisa; Sam and Chris; Clayton, Tyler (2021), and Brad.
Proud Great Pops to Stella, Mia, Liam, and Nora; Wyatt and Levi.
Walter was a man of few words and rare smiles, but if you asked him about fishing or gardening, he could tell you anything you needed to know.
Forever the scholar, he achieved his BaSC at the age of 60 from Trent University.
At Walter’s request, there will be no funeral service—he was never one for fuss or a party.
Hope you are trying to catch that rainbow trout that got away, with Chris and Tyler cheering you on.
Make sure you wear those red socks.
Life is hard, but at least you don’t have ugly children.
Memories and notes of condolence may be shared at Mount Lawn Funeral Home.
