Brian Douglas Minard
January 19, 1958 - April 27, 2022
With sad and heavy hearts our family announces the passing of Brian on April 27, 2022, at Lakeridge Health Oshawa in his 65th year.
Cherished son of Jack Minard and stepson to Janet Minard.
Beloved brother to Jean (Henry) and Rick (Yvonne) and is predeceased by his mother Helen Jean Minard (nee Smith).
Favourite uncle to Jenn, Thomas, Theresa, Kate and Nathan and adored great uncle to Mackenzie, Hayden, Kiera, Eleanor, Greyson, Finn and Maeve.
Brian was fiercely independent and never let his physical limitations stop him.
He determinedly taught himself to ride a bike that took him on endless adventures and later he proudly started working at ARC Industries.
It was there that he met Debbie who would become his dearest and loved friend for the next 44 years.
He also worked at Whitby Land Registry Office, was a member of the Moose Lodge (Oshawa) and volunteered at St. John’s Activity Centre.
Brian lived on his own until his health declined and moved to Fairview Lodge, Whitby.
He loved his home there and was a friend to everyone. Laughter and a smile came easy to him especially after telling a corny joke or pulled a prank on you.
He scooted around on his electric chair in the Fairview hallways and downtown Whitby to his favourite restaurants and stores.
Family, friends, bingo, puzzles, chicken wings, cold beer and summer heat - this was Brian, the guy with the “infectious smile and giggle.”
Our thanks to Lakeridge Health Oshawa, Critical Care Unit Stations 1 and 3 for taking care of Brian, you are angels.
Fairview Lodge was Brian’s home for the past 12 years, but the love and care you showed him was immeasurable. Thank you.
Resting at ARMSTRONG FUNERAL HOME 124 King Street East for visitation on Tuesday May 10th from 4pm - 6pm.

Brian Spencer
1940 - 2022 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Brian Spencer on April 26, 2022 at the age of 81.
He passed away of a heart attack after a short illness.
Caring husband of Clarellen Spencer.
Loving father to Clayton Spencer (Katie) and Jennifer Spencer (Ron).
Cherished grandfather of Jordan, Alexa, Ross and Sophie. He was pre-deceased by his parents Roy and Winnie Spencer. Brian had many passions in life.
He was an avid long-distance runner for many years. He enjoyed swimming, canoeing, and slo-pitch baseball, which he played well into his 60’s. He was a great wilderness camping enthusiast, and was undaunted by mile-long portages well into his 70’s.
Brian was a long-time Liberal supporter, and for many years he was a familiar face canvassing for local candidates in Pickering. Brian had a strong belief in God, and was involved in the spiritual life at St. Martin’s Anglican Church for many years. An entire generation of youngsters learned about the Bible from Brian’s teachings in Sunday School.
Brian’s life was not without challenges. He was an alcoholic. However, he joined Alcoholics Anonymous and was sober for the last twenty-five years of his life. Not only did he maintain his own sobriety, but he reached out to other alcoholics and opened his home to them, offering them a place to stay when other doors were closed.
He showed unfailing kindness and patience to those who needed help. Brian had a positive impact on those around him, and he will be sorely missed.
In the last days of his life at Lakeridge Health Ajax Pickering Hospital, Brian was shown great care and compassion by the healthcare staff.
We are thankful that at such a difficult time, Brian was shown such kindness. We are forever grateful.
Visitation at St. Martin's Anglican Church on April 30, 2022 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM. Funeral Service from 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
In lieu of flowers, donations to St. Martin's Anglican Church would be appreciated by the family.
