  • Notes 
    • "Richard Clive Stauffer was born in Galt on Jan. 2, 1922, the son of Clive Bowman Stauffer and Jean Davidson Aitkin. Mr. Stauffer joined the Highland Light Infantry of Canada in 1940, attaining the rank first of Lieutenant and, later, of Captain. He led his troops in the D-Day landing in Normandy and 4 weeks later was seriously wounded during the successful 12 hour battle for the French town of Buronon July 8, 1944. In 1953 Mr. Stauffer purchased the assets of T. A. Rutherford and Son Fuels and changed the company name to Stauffer Fuels. In 1956 Mr. Stauffer's company amalgamated with Galt Fuel and Supply Co.Ltd. to create Stauffer Quality Fuels Ltd. In 1960 another amalgamation took place, this time with Roos Fuels Company Ltd. to form Stauffer-Roos Fuels which was located at 101 Ainslie St. S. Mr. Stauffer died at Saugeen Memorial Hospital in Southampton on Sept. 22, 1988 and is buried in Mount View Cemetery."
