Norman Alfred Carrington Holbrook
It was with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved Norman on January 25, 2024, at the age of 87 at Rouge Valley Hospital Centenary. Beloved husband to Vera, loving father to Ivan (Shelley) and grandfather to Adam. Norm spent the majority of his life in Scarborough, Ontario after moving from Nottingham England in the summer of 1968. Norman started his career as a food technologist. His first job in Canada was at Bowes Industry's. After working a numerous amount of years, he decided to change career paths and moved into residential painting, decorating and wallpapering. This way he was his own boss. This is where he worked for many years before his retirement. During his retirement years he spent most of his time down in Sarasota, Florida during the winter months. Once the weather warmed back up, Norman would spend his time up at his trailer at Pigeon Lake Trailer Park. Norman enjoyed lots of activities including reading, doing puzzles, bird watching and working on projects around the house and trailer. Norman will be always remembered by his kindness to others, hardworking, and a loving man to his family.
