Walter R. Stevenson

November 27, 1941 - September 7, 2021

Passed away tragically and suddenly on Tuesday, September 7, 2021, at the age of 79.

The most loving father, he will be forever and deeply missed by Catherine (Steve), Kimberly (Jeff) and Matthew. Much loved grandfather of Chris, Cole, Stella, Nikki, and Madison. Survived by the mother of his children, Margaret. Lovingly remembered by his nieces and nephews, Wally was the best big brother to his surviving sibling, “Bullit” Bob. After a distinguished career in Law as Senior Partner at McLean & Kerr, Wally is greatly missed by his many respected colleagues and dear friends.

Wally was loved by all who knew him. Born in St. Catharines and raised in Port Dalhousie, he maintained a lifelong love of the water and often took his kids back to see his childhood home and his humble beginnings. He loved the Henley Regatta, and served as Co-Commodore of the Mississauga Canoe Club in the 1990s. Wally loved his backyard swimming pools, relaxing poolside at his condo in Fort Myers, family RV trips to Myrtle Beach and then visiting Goderich at his trailer on Lake Huron in his final years.

A gentle, kind and loving man, Wally instilled strong values in his children. A proud grandfather, Wally adored spending time with his grandchildren and “watching them unfold like blossoms”.

Each of his children was immensely proud of their Dad and his career. A memorable highlight was the endowment of the Walter R. Stevenson student bursary at U of T Law School by businessman and philanthropist Gallant Ho. The award is granted to a law student demonstrating significant “perseverance and determination”, qualities which Wally personified throughout his life.

He had a strength of character and tenacity of will true to his Scottish roots. Like the solitary bagpiper, he managed his pain with quiet strength and grace until it became too much to bear.

Joseph Ambrose
Joe was first and foremost a father, to a very beautiful little boy; Mason. Joe spent most of his time trying to make a better life for himself and his son. He was so kind, compassionate and could often be found spending time with animals more than people…he cared for others because he gave freely what he also needed…love. Joe left us in March of 2022, after experiencing homelessness and not being able to get the proper mental health help he needed. He is gone, but never will he be forgotten.
