The loss of a parent is heartbreaking. Our parents are immortals in the part of our minds that will forever be children. My love to your mother and to Mary.

My sincere condolences to Aunt Toni, Mark, and Mary. My family and I spent many wonderful Boxing Day dinners at the Silcox house over the years. It was always a place filled with warmth and laughter. Uncle Peter was a great storyteller and a lovely man. He will be truly missed. I’m blessed to have known him.

Peter was my colleague at U of T from 1970 until his retirement. He was a fine teacher and a consummate administrator. Peter always solved the 'big' problems that made life easier for his colleagues. I shall remember him as a trusted mentor and a generous friend.
