Born October 10, 1940, passed away peacefully at Lakeridge Health Ajax on November 27, 2023 surrounded by family.

Predeceased by his father and mother, Albert Watters and Mary Watters.

Survived by his wife of 58 years, Jane, and their children, Glenn (Joanne), Catherine (Bill), and Jennifer.

Beloved Grandfather of eight - Rachael, Sarah, Brian, Matthew, Lauren, Hayden, Branden and Joshua. Brother of Jacqueline and uncle to many.

A retired Captain of the Toronto Fire Department, Brian was an avid Toronto Maple Leaf fan. He loved nothing more than attending the various sporting activities of his grandchildren – whether that be hockey, baseball or ringette.

He was also a 10 pin bowler and ran the East Guildwood Mixed Bowling League for 35 years.

Brian was a golfer and enjoyed playing with his son and his grandsons every chance he got – particularly in Hilton Head Island. Brian was a five time cancer survivor and over the years, he managed to beat them all.

Special thanks are extended to the Palliative Care team at Lakeridge Health Ajax for their compassionate care and guidance.

In lieu of flowers, a donation to the charity of your choice would be appreciated.
