ROY TRACK

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dad, Roy Track.
He leaves behind his children: Lynn (Peter), Gary (Dana), Bruce (Tracy) and Brian’s partner Chrissie.
Dad was so proud of his grandchildren: Craig (Alisha), Ryan, Melissa (Steve) and Jessica. He adored his visits with his great-grandchildren: Arianna, Owen, Marissa, Logan and Adaline.
Predeceased by Jackie, his wife of 66 years; and their youngest son Brian.
Dad joined the RCAF at age 17 and served across Canada and in Germany. After retiring from the military, he enjoyed a second career with Bruce Power where he worked with computers and simulators long before they became common. He kept his connection to the Air Force by working with the Air Cadet Squadron in Kincardine.
He met mom on a visit to Manitoba with a co-worker who didn’t think dad should spend Christmas alone at the Cold Lake, Alberta Air Base. Mom and dad married six months later.
Retirement gave him the time to travel with mom, for more birdwatching, time for their extensive gardens at the north end of Queen Street in Kincardine, and to hone his woodworking and carving skills. His love of family shows in all the pieces that will forever remind us of him – whether it is a chest, mirror or a beautiful doll house. No one in our family will ever be able to see a bird without thinking of him and particularly the special ones represented in the carvings he made for each of us.
A memorial service to honour his life will be held at Davey-Linklater Funeral Home in Kincardine at 1 p.m. on Friday, May 2, 2025, followed by a social time to reminisce.
Interment for immediate family only at Kincardine Cemetery.
Memorial donations to the Kincardine and Community Health Care Foundation, the Canadian Cancer Society or a charity of your choice, would be appreciated as expressions of sympathy.
