• Notes

  His Spirit Fitted the Times The wide horizon of his business and public interests gives some measure of the stature of Henry C. Krug as a man. But his many friends, who are mourning his death, will remember him for much more than that. He was known to them as a good father of a happy family, a generous and unassuming patron of many good causes, a sage counsellor to individuals and organizations which had the wisdom to ask his advice, a citizen who was an ornament to his community. Henry Krug was a local boy who made good in every sphere he touched. He was a man of substance whose philanthropy, much of it private and largely unknown, was not only from the purse but from the heart. He was a jovial companion who provided countless hours of happiness for the many fortunate enough to enjoy his company. He accepted his responsibilities as a private individual with service in a world war, and by his more recent encouragement of the volunteer military establishment as honorary lieutenant-colonel of the Highland Fusiliers of Canada. Educational and health services have benefited from his interest and there are few worthwhile ventures in the community that have not been assisted by him directly or indirectly. He was a religious man whose spirit fitted the ecumenical movement of the day. He enjoyed the best aspects of modern living and was delighted to participate as well as to observe. Communities as closely knit as Kitchener and Waterloo realize they can genuinely mourn his death while giving thanks that they were fortunate enough to have enjoyed his presence for 71 years.
