Peart - Dr. Brian Lorne

Peacefully at home after a lengthy illness on Friday, February 16, 2018, age 75. Brian will be greatly missed by his wife Marilyn; children Sarah (Patrick), Jennifer (Mark) and Laura (Matt); siblings, Maureen and John (Marg); 8 adoring grandchildren; many nieces and nephews; and his truly wonderful friends.

Brian graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College in 1968. After several years in practice, Brian began his over 40 year career at Agriculture Canada in Animal Health. Brian will be remembered as an adventurous traveller; an active volunteer with the Alzheimer Society, Canadian Figure Skating Association and the Humane Society; a gardener and nature enthusiast; and most of all as a loving and kind-hearted family man. His valued advice, kindness, integrity and his approach to life have been and will continue to be an inspiration.
