Row, Richard "Dick" It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dick in hospital, Ottawa on June 27th, 2015 in his 74th year. He was born in Smiths Falls, to parents the late Ethan and Shirley (Mapplebeck) Row. Dick was the big brother to sisters Jane (late Bud) Rohn, Judy (Roger) Hum, Maureen (Colin) Beatty and Leslie (John Smith) Row. He was the beloved husband to Rita (Kelly) and cherished father to Kim (Benjamin Fuller) Lund, Theresa (Stuart Arnott) Row, Christine (Chris Allan) Row and Matthew (Gill Goldsmith) Row. Dick was the loving grandfather of ten and great grandfather to one. He will be sadly missed by his family and the wonderful friends he made throughout his life. Dick's life was well lived. Graduating in Civil Engineering (RMC), he embarked on a career with R.C.A.F. as a navigator with Squadron 415 in Summerside PEI. He then joined the Department of Environment in Halifax, as an environmental engineer for twelve years. This led him to Dalhousie Law and then to Toronto, where for twenty years he focused on construction law. Moving to Port Hope, he practised privately for the next decade. During this time he enjoyed his role on the Board of Directors for The Capitol Theatre. Dick retired to Perth, Ontario in 2010. The family wishes to acknowledge the phenomenal care of the oncology staff at Ottawa General Hospital.
