    Her fond and tender care;
    Our home is dark, now, Mother,
    We miss you everywhere."

    Notes:

    SCHOTT, Clare Floyd Passed away peacefully at Trinity Village Care Centre in Kitchener on June 12, 2014. He was pre-deceased by his wife Margaret (Pratt), his brother Don, and his parents Vernon and Luella (Witmer). Clare was born in Wilmot Township in 1926. He will be fondly remembered by his children Greg (Linda), Rob (Judith) and Larry (Susan); his grandchildren Ben Yu Schott (Melissa), Kendra Baillie (Jim), Rachel and Jason; his great-grandchildren Callie, Theo, James and Elyse; his brothers Cliff (Carol), Glen (Alice), Ken (Jackie), David (Denise); and his sister Grace Bechtel (George). Clare demonstrated an outstanding mechanical aptitude from an early age. He completed his apprenticeship as a Pattern Maker with Philip Gies Foundry during WWII. He was truly an exalted craftsman and he honed his skills as a problem-solver by successfully completing many complex projects. Clare had a special passion for building boats. His first vessels, made in the 1930s out of Coca Cola signs, were launched in the Bridgeport dam reservoir. Subsequent vessels were more seaworthy. His pride and joy was a 28 foot aluminum-hulled cabin cruiser complete with Volvo inboard/ outboard engine which he built from scratch in the early 1970s. Clare founded Parkway Manufacturing Limited in 1959. With the support of Margaret and help from their three sons they developed the Company into a very successful business building patterns, moulds and tooling for the plastics industry. Clients included Admiral International, the Coleman Company, Boeing, Bauer Industries and Perstorp Components. Clare retired when he and Margaret sold the Company in 1993. Clare was a gentleman in the truest sense. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. Cremation has taken place. Clare's family will receive relatives and friends at the Henry Walser Funeral Home , 507 Frederick Street, Kitchener, 519-749-8467 on Saturday, June 21, 2014 from 10-10:45 a.m. A memorial service will be held in the funeral home chapel at 11 a.m. with Rev. Mark Lewis officiating. A private interment will take place at Woodland Cemetery following a reception at the funeral home. As expressions of sympathy, donations may be made to the Television Ministry of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church in Kitchener, www.standrewskw.com (cards available at the funeral home). Special thanks to the wonderful staff at Pine Wood in Trinity Village for their kindness and the exceptional care they provided to Clare. Visit www.henrywalser.com for Clare's memorial.

    Notes:

    CHOTT, Donald Wayne July 11, 1934 - October 25, 2012 After a short fight with cancer, Don chose a beautiful autumn day and said goodbye as the last leaves were falling from the trees. Predeceased by his parents, Vernon and Luella (Witmer) Schott, Don leaves behind daughters Lynda Hallett and Cathy Caron (Blair); grandsons Josh and Brendan Caron; his very special Angel and soulmate, Mary Lynn Tosh Johnson as well as Bruce and Becky Johnson (Chris Ennis) and grandson Rylen. Also grieving are brothers Clare (Margaret), Cliff (Carol), Glen (Alice), Ken (Jackie), David (Denise) and sister Grace Bechtel (George). Don was a permanent fixture at the building on the corner of Weber and Columbia in Waterloo. Beginning as a tool and die apprentice with Marsland Engineering, through the years of Leigh Instruments Ltd., then with La-Z-Boy Canada Ltd. until his retirement. An "outdoorsman" in the truest sense, much of his heart belongs to the northern bush of Bear Lake and Hunt Camp 100. At Don's request, cremation has taken place. Friends and family are welcome to come and share stories, memories and hugs at a reception to be held Wednesday, October 31, 2012 at the Ratz-Bechtel Family Centre, from 2-4 p.m. (There will be a brief time of remembrance at 3 p.m., led by Pastor John Pearce.) In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Kitchener-Waterloo Humane Society, 250 Riverbend Dr., Kitchener. A very special thank you to home care nurses Becky, Paula and Erin and to Dr. Donna Ward.
