SHOULDICE, Charles "Chuck" Nesbitt October 22, 1929 - November 7, 2007 Peacefully at St. Patrick's Home in his 79th year. Dearly cherished father of Steven (Lynn) and Lori Ann McGurran (Paul). Lovingly remembered and greatly missed by grandchildren Stephanie Shouldice and David McGurran, as well as his two sisters Kay Henry (Carmen) and Muriel Nesbitt (Duncan). Predeceased by his parents John and Thelma, brother Alan (Betty) and former spouse Joan (nee Levesque). Chuck retired from 25 years of service in the Canadian Armed Forces in 1973 and subsequently worked for the Federal Government before his early retirement. Although his abilities were limited from his struggle with MS, Chuck enjoyed playing cards, attending Ottawa 67's games with Steven, and could be seen riding his scooter around his home at Lynwood Manor in Bells Corners, often with young grandson David riding with him. He later moved from Lynwood but soon made many friends at St. Patrick's Home. He never forgot a name and always remembered details. Chuck is fondly remembered as a wonderful man who never complained and always greeted everyone with a smile and those twinkling blue eyes. Family and friends are invited to attend a Memorial Service on Tuesday, November 13th at Pinecrest Remembrance Chapel (2500 Baseline Road, Ottawa) at 2 p.m. A reception will follow in the Pinecrest Reception Room. In memory of Chuck donations to St. Patrick's Home and MS Society would be appreciated. Thank you to Barb Love and all those at St. Pat's who cared for Chuck.
