June 29, 1940 -  January 15, 2018

Brown, Frederick James (1940-2018) - It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Frederick James Brown on January 15, 2018 after a brave fight with his illness.
Devoted husband of 27 years of the late Susan Labossiere. He will be sadly missed by his children Sandra (David), Stephen (Carolyn), Daniel (Marjie), David (Rebecca), Christopher (Duane), Kathleen (Robert), and their mother; Carol Cotter.

Survived by his brother, Robert (Marjorie) and his sister, Mary (Bill).
Predeceased by his two sisters, Marjorie and Dorothy and his parents Robert Brown, Laura and Stepfather, Murray Cummings.

He adored his grandchildren, Amber, Justin (Natasha), Samantha (Christopher), Laura (Ryan), Sean (Lisa), Emily, Clayton, Bridget, Matthew, Jordyn, Christopher, Morgan, Brienna and great-grandchildren Jayden, Ciana, William and Sullivan.

Fred was born on June 29, 1940, in Cobourg, Ontario and was an employee at Liquid Carbonic for 30 years.

Fred enjoyed spending quiet time with his wife, Susan and their cat, Ivy. He loved to spend time with his extra-large family who will remember him for his big, kind and caring heart and his never-ending sense of humour.

Each day with Fred (Dad) was a blessing and we thank all the family and friends for their continued support.

The family will receive friends on Saturday, January 20, 2018 at PINE HILLS FUNERAL CENTRE, 625 Birchmount Road, Toronto, ON, from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. with a Celebration of Life Service at 2:30 p.m. If desired, in lieu of flowers, memorial donations will be gratefully accepted to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Canadian Diabetes Association.

Dad,
You were always "strong like a bull", your integrity, strength, determination and sense of humor always made me proud to call you my Dad. I will miss our long conversations, which you always started with a joke, our birthday breakfasts at Ted's but most of all I will miss your laughter. Fred Brown you touched many hearts.
I Love You Dad. Wish I could hear you say "Right back at you!" just one more time.
Adios Amigo
Love you always Steve xoxo

Grandpa Brown,
Im Absolutely Heartbroken, To Say The Very Least. You Were A Very Strong, Loving, Helpful, And Extremely Hilarious Grandpa. Every Memory I Have With You Is Filled With Countless Laughs To The Point Tears Would Stream Down My Face. Even In The Hospital When Id Come Visit With My Dad On Monday & Wednesday Nights You'd Have Us Roaring With Laughter. I Can Still Hear You Saying "Hi Ya Sweetcheeks". You Were An Amazing Great Grandpa To Jayden You Never Missed A Birthday Party, You'd Save Your Coins All Year Round And Give Him Them In A New Piggy Bank Every Birthday. You Definitely Kick Started His Savings. He's A Little Entrepreneur, Constantly Scavenging More Money Because Of You. You Were Always There When I Needed You And Im Thankful For That, I Called You My Toe Doctor. Im Thankful For The Summer I Was Stuck For Childcare On Fridays, Jayden Was Newly Two, And You Came Out To Babysit Him For Me Every Friday. You'd Call Me On My Birthday To Let Me Know You And Nana Dropped A Card To Sunset Every Year. You Were ALWAYS There Grandpa, And I Think Thats Why This Is Going To Be A Very Hard See You Later For Our Family. All The Little Things You Did For Each And Every One Of Us Will Never Be Forgotten.
I Love You With All My Heart.
ps/ Thanks For Keeping My Secret.
Laura Brown
