Dow, Ivan (Age 85) 

Ivan Dow eighty-five years after coming into this world, the youngest son of Eccles and Wellington Dow, the youngest sibling of the late Ada Taylor, Eva Snell, Nelson and Donald, Ivan Campbell Dow bid his world goodbye. An end to an era. “I never met anyone I didn’t like” Will Rogers said it, Ivan Dow lived it. A genuine people person! A stranger was a friend to be. Ivan saw and respected the good in people. As so many others the impact of COVID hit hard. In March of 2020 Ivan was hospitalized and waited four months for a long-term care bed. The isolation of visitor restrictions took its toll. And though he would rather have gone home to his van Dow farm on Belfast Road he moved to Huronlea. He took it all in stride, settled right in and never complained. He appreciated the loving attention and nothing but excellent care he received at Huronlea. A graveside service and celebration of an admirably lived life will be held at a later date. “Yes dear!” Online condolences at www.mcburneyfuneralhome.com
