In Celebration of

Peter Saxton

August 4, 1930 -  August 24, 2016

A remarkable man has left our company.
Peacefully, Peter died at The Westbury Long Term Care Home in Etobicoke on August 24th.
Born and raised in Toronto, Peter graduated from U of T with a BA in Anthropology. He had several careers including teaching, publishing, sales and business. His greatest passions were the cottage in Haliburton and volunteering as a reader at the Canadian National Institute for the Blind for over 56 years. He leaves behind his wife Anne, his three children (Kathy, Paul and Robin), two step-daughters (Carolyn and Sarah), and ten grand and step-grand children. The family wishes to thank the staff and volunteers at the Dorothy Ley Hospice and The Westbury for their amazing care and support. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to CNIB, Dorothy Ley Hospice or the Church of Christ the King.
Visitation will be held on Tuesday, August 30 at 10AM at Christ The King Church, 475 Rathburn Rd, Etobicoke. Celebration of Life to follow at 11. A reception at the church will follow the service.
