It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Spencer Elvins on June 19, 2021. Spence died in the comfort of his home in Haliburton, Ontario in his 84th year. He is survived by his life partner, Heather, daughter Shelly (Ed), sons Michael and James. Fondly remembered by his many nieces and nephews. Bronson, his beautiful 4-legged friend will miss the many special times together. Known for his unrivaled dedication to the Toronto Blue Jays, the Maple Leafs, and his love of and appreciation for great music, Spence’s life experiences are what good books are written about. Spence has touched the hearts of many people during his 83 years and has left this world a better place by always looking out for the underdogs, keeping family and friends near to his heart, and showing us that it’s not how many years you live, but the way you live those years that really counts. Spence lived life with gusto! He had a great sense of humour and a belly deep laugh that was infectious. He was always welcoming, both into his home and his heart, and showed a genuine respect and love for others. He will be deeply missed, but his memories will always be comforting.
