Edward Franklyn Oran Plant, formerly of Hamilton, passed away after a brief diagnosis with cancer at Brightshores Health Systems in Owen Sound on Wednesday, November 13, 2024, at the age of 71.

Ed cherished time spent on the greens at Blackhorse Golf Course and treasured road trips and vacations with his family. He worked as a Truck Driver with Wentworth Metal Recycling and was known for his dedication and hardworking spirit.
He is survived by his devoted wife and best friend of over 40 years, Elizabeth (nee Ernest) Plant of Hanover. Loving father to Michael (Jennifer), Cheryl (Brian), and Kayla. Special grandpa to Brody, Miranda, Sydney, and River. He is also survived by his mother, Louise Plant of New Brunswick, and his siblings Trudy (Carl) Lange, Malcolm Barclay, Francis (Guy) Assogna, and Alma (Jacques) Aubin. Ed will be fondly remembered by his nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends. He was predeceased by his father, his sister Pearl (Jimmy) Barclay, and siblings Lovilos Barclay and Eldon Plant, as well as sister-in-law Janetta Barclay.
To honor Ed's wishes, cremation has taken place. Memorial donations to the Canadian Cancer Society would be appreciated as expressions of sympathy.
