Brian O. Bellinham

(Ret’d – Aircraft Mechanic, RCAF)

Peacefully, at Carleton Lodge, surrounded by the love of his family, on Wednesday, February 10, 2016 at the age of 87. Loving husband for 60 years of Connie (nee Bilodeau). Beloved father of Bill (Mary Miller), Louise, and Christine Carmichael (Ray). Proud grandfather of Maddie and Raymond. Predeceased by his brothers Bill and Cyril (the late Pauline Belanger). He will be fondly remembered by all his family and friends. Brian was born on January 21st, 1929 and grew up in beautiful Magog, Quebec, a place he loved, remembered fondly and visited often. He joined the Armed Forces in 1952 and married Connie in 1956. He served overseas for a number of years with his young family in tow and finally settled in Ottawa in 1966. He eventually retired from the Armed Forces and moved on to working for the Federal Government. Brian was a kind, loyal and funny man who loved nothing more than to spend time with his family. The family wishes to extend a heartfelt thank you to the staff and volunteers at Carleton Lodge – West Carleton Wing for their care and kindness. A private family service has been held. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the Alzheimer Society of Ontario or Carleton Lodge Donor Trust, 55 Lodge Road, Ottawa, ON K2C 3H1 would be appreciated.
