It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Harry Henderson Boyd. Harry began his long, adventurous life in the middle of a freezing prairie winter in Killam, Alberta and ended his days as spring came to Ontario, his long time home. Harry was predeceased by his parents Henry Allen and Florence Adelaide, by his sisters Marion McVeigh and Evelyn Snobelen, and by his first wife, Catherine (née Fowler). Harry was well loved by his wife, Lynda Robinson; his children and their spouses, Jon (Pat), Adrianne Morrison (Ron), Breffny Luccisano (Joe), Hilary Boyd (Jim) and Alyssa Boyd (Rob). He took great joy in his grandchildren Ruth, Natalie, Catherine, Jacqueline, Nicole, Toby and Mia. After graduating from Victoria College, U of T, Harry earned his M.A. in English from Emmanuel College, Cambridge. He taught History at Leaside High School and Northview Heights Collegiate. A true renaissance man, Harry loved philosophy and the arts and pouring over his vast stamp collection in his well-stocked library. He also had his athletic side. While at U of T he played football and was captain of the Varsity hockey team. He toured Europe with the Oxford-Cambridge team and played professional hockey in the UK British League and in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy. He was one of the founders of the North York Rangers and sported four Stanley Cup rings from his years of scouting for the New York Islanders. Harry was a devoted member of the Joyce Group, a club of like-minded bibliophiles who enjoyed monthly meetings, fine dining, cross-country ski weekends and cottage get-aways for over 40 years. He loved to travel, particularly in Europe, and always headed to the nearest museum or art gallery. He and Lynda spent two enriching years in Vienna and Paris. Even when confined to a wheelchair he was keen to expand his horizons; he sailed the route of the Vikings and all around the Black Sea. Harry lived life to the fullest but his athletic endeavours took their toll on his body. He had many parts replaced but despite a determined effort to ward off Alzheimer's, he succumbed to the deterioration of his most defining organ, his brain. Harry spent his last years in the loving embrace of the devoted staff of Kensington Gardens who cherished his infectious smile and constant search for his 'loving wife'. We thank all of them for their unselfish care. A Memorial Visitation will take place on June 11, 2022 from 11:00 am - 12:00 pm followed by a Celebration of Harry's life at 12:00 pm at Mount Pleasant Funeral Centre (375 Mount Pleasant Rd.
