    GOOD, Floyd Shantz

    Passed away peacefully on Monday, August 8, 2022, at the Huron Hospice Residence located in Clinton, Ontario. Floyd was born 90 years ago in Plattsville, Ontario, a son of the late Joseph C. and Naomi (Shantz) Good.

    Loving father of Gwen Good and Lyle Haney, Terry Good and wife Kim and Murray Good and wife Chantelle. Devoted grandfather of Mitch (Samantha), Marcus (RuthAnne), Evan and Aidan. Proud great-grandfather of Beau. Floyd will be missed by Lyle Haney's children & grandchildren, by his many foster children, and by many nieces and nephews.

    Floyd will be missed by his siblings, Mervin Good, Paul and wife Beth good, Marilyn and husband Dow Phillips and Elroy and wife Joan Good. Predeceased and now reunited with his beloved wife Wilma (Erb) Good who predeceased him on April 29, 2022, by his twin daughters, and sister-in-law Mary Ellen Good.

    Floyd was a member of Maple View Mennonite Church and volunteered his time with his beloved wife at the Mennonite Relief Sale. Floyd was a passionate farmer who taught his children and grandchildren the importance of agriculture and farming. He passed on his values to his 3 children and grandchildren who still to this day farm in some way or another. CARS… those who knew Floyd knew his passion for cars and enjoying a cruise on a lovely day. Floyd's car was driven in a manor that items placed strategically on the dash never moved, and if they did he sure knew how the car was driven. He was known for his clean vehicles, even after driving the dirt roads. As some would state, Floyd was a "Legend". Floyd and Wilma opened their home to many friends, and many foster children over the years. The kindness and generosity shown will live on forever.

    Cremation has taken place. All are welcome to join the family at the Blenheim Mennonite Cemetery for a time of committal on Wednesday, August 24 at 11:00. The memorial service will follow at 11:30 in the Blenheim Retreat Centre with Pastor Brent Kipfer officiating. A time of fellowship and refreshments will be held following the service.

    As expressions of sympathy, donations to Huron Hospice or MCEC \endash Blenheim Cemetery Fund would be appreciated.
