GLENESK, Ronald Bell - (May 14, 1933 – November 24, 2020) -
With saddened hearts we announce the peaceful passing of Ron Glenesk, beloved husband of Barbara Whitney and the late Phyllis Glenesk (nee Sloley); brother of the late Reverend William Glenesk; cherished father of Jennifer, Tony (Lindsay Smail) and Margaret (Greg Larouche).
Devoted and so proud grandfather of Ariel, Aidan, Miranda, Julian, Tomas, Camille and their partners; dear great-grandfather of Xander and Chloe.
Former language teacher at Winchester High School, Glebe Collegiate (Ottawa) and R.H. King Collegiate (Scarborough).
Very much a people person, Ron was gregarious, generous, kind and just a little stubborn. He loved classical music, tennis, books, the Balmy Beach Club, cigars, crossword puzzles, red wine, his coffee shop pals but most of all, his family.
A family funeral service will be held with a Celebration of Life at a later date. Arrangements entrusted to Giffen-Mack Funeral Home, Danforth Chapel, Toronto.
Donations to Kingston Road United Church or Victoria College, University of Toronto would be appreciated.
