WIFFEN, Ernest Edward (Ted)

January 25, 1932 - July 9, 2020

Son of the late Harry Ernest and the late Helen Wiffen. Brother of Anna
Joyce and her husband Jim. Husband of Joan Margaret (McCrindle) Wiffen
for 62 years. Father of Gregory and Christopher (both deceased), Janice
(Wiffen) Schweizer and David and his wife Diane. Grandfather of Kristy,
Andrew, Scott and Courtney and great-grandfather of Max. Survived also by
nieces and nephews.

Ted was a graduate of Oakville Trafalgar High School and the Ontario
Agricultural College, class of 1954,
where he was honoured to be class president in his senior year. After
brief careers with Canada Agriculture
and WIPP Pest Control, he retired from Dow Chemical after a long and
interesting career in research in Sarnia
and sales in Saskatoon.

He will be fondly remembered for his love of long drives, exploring
Canada, and reading every historical plaque
he came across! He was also an avid photographerand would entertain the
family for hours (and hours) with
his slide shows. His passion for gardening has been passed down to his
children and grandchildren. His family
would like to thank the staff at Arbour Trails and the nurses and doctors
at Guelph General Hospital for their
compassionate care.

At Ted's request, there will be no memorial service and a private family
internment service. If desired, memorial
donations may be made to the charity of your choice. Donation cards are
available at the Gilbert MacIntyre & Son
Funeral Home, Hart Chapel, 1099 Gordon St., Guelph, 519-821-5077.
