Thomas Robert Tustin

It is with the deepest sorrow and a profound sense of loss that the family of Thomas “Tom” Tustin announces his passing on March 19, 2023, at Collingwood General and Marine Hospital. Tom is predeceased by his wife Linda and his brothers Denny, Billy and Jimmy Tustin. He is survived by his sister Marjorie.

His memory and the lessons he gifted his children Ed, Jeff (Crystal), and Jody (Steve), will be forever cherished. Those same lessons shall continue to be passed on to his grandchildren Mikayla (Dan), Amanda (Ryan), Kaleb, Curtis, Ethan, Tiana, Ellena and Everleigh as well as his great-grandson Lief.

Tom’s sense of humour and devotion to family will be remembered by all who had the honour of calling him a friend or family. His fun-loving nature and his ability to find joy daily will continue to be reflected by his friends and family and shall be the foundation to build new memories he would be proud of.

Cremation has taken place and a memorial for Tom shall be held at a later date and will be announced as plans are confirmed.

“Dear Dad”
Thank you for the lessons
About life and home and love
Every precious memory
Of togetherness and fun
For the hugs and praise when needed
For the hugs so freely given
For the example of devotion
The joy you showed in living
We shall cherish every memory
Though our world is not the same
We will honour all you gifted us
Until we are with you once again
