In Loving Memory of Larry Lefaive

May 28, 1943 – July 24, 2026

Peacefully on July 24th, 2026, Larry Lefaive passed away. He now rejoins his loving parents, Leora and Edmund, his oldest brother Lionel, and his dear dog Cinnamon in heaven.

Larry will be dearly missed by his brother Charles and sister-in-law Rita, his nephews Richard and Kevin, and his great nieces Maddy and Summer. He leaves behind a particularly special bond with his best friend, Marjorie, who will miss him deeply, alongside many extended family members and dear friends.

A proud and skilled tradesman, Larry was well known for his dedicated welding work at Chrysler. Outside of work, he was an avid sports enthusiast who took great joy in his slow-pitch baseball career. A frequent snowbird in Florida, Larry loved nothing more than cruising around with the top down in a nice convertible.

Larry was also a proud member of the Essex County baseball community, where his love of the game extended far beyond the diamond

Larry always appreciated a good, comfortable sleep—and his family takes solace in knowing he now rests peacefully.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the compassionate staff at Erie Shores Hospice for the exceptional care, kindness, and dignity shown to Larry throughout his final days. Your support and compassion brought comfort to Larry and to all who loved him, and it will always be deeply appreciated.

A graveside service will be held at 11:30am on Monday, July 27th, 2026, at Heavenly Rest Cemetery (5005 Howard Ave, LaSalle, ON N9H 1Z5).

In Loving Memory of Robert W. McMillan

July 17, 1943 – June 25, 2026

It is with heavy hearts we announce the peaceful passing of Robert W. McMillan (Bob) at the age of 82.

He was predeceased by his father Robert L. McMillan and his mother Geraldine (nee Brian).

Beloved husband of Marilyn (nee Wall) for almost 57 years.

Very proud and loving father to Matthew and Lisa, and Meredith and Dean.

Loving and supportive Papa to his grandchildren, Madelyn and Nickolas McMillan, and Jack and Liam Fitzmaurice.

Dearly loved brother of Kent McMillan and his wife Kirsten, and brother-in-law to Maureen Cowan and her husband Greg. Best friend to Al Evans for over 60 years

Bob will also be sadly missed by his nieces and nephews and many extended family members and friends.

Bob retired from Ford Motor after 42 years of dedicated service. He played fastball for a lot of his adult life and was honoured to be inducted into the Windsor Fastpitch Softball Hall of Fame, along with his Dad Robert L. McMillan.

As per Bob’s wishes, cremation has taken place and a celebration of his life will take place at a later date. Arrangements entrusted to Windsor Chapel Funeral Home (Central Chapel) 1700 Tecumseh Rd. E., Windsor, ON. Online condolences and cherished memories can be shared with the family at www.windsorchapel.com
