TINKLER, THOMAS MAURICE August 12, 1922-February 18, 2014 On February 18, 2014 Mr. Tom Tinkler passed away peacefully in Fort Saskatchewan, AB at the age of 91. Tom will be deeply missed by his loving family; wife of 68 years Nancy, sister Jean, daughter Cherie, son Steven (Connie), grandchildren Julie (Al) Vaughan, Janice (Randy) Eppy, Marty (Kristin) McKeever and great grandchildren Brendan, Elizabeth, Jeffrey and Alanna. Tom was predeceased by his parents Thomas and Annie, his brother Norman, his sister Peggy and his son-in-law Don McKeever. All those who knew Tom knew of his passions for art, his church community and his appreciation for all aspects of nature. Tom was a devoted family man, a proud Rotary Member (Paul Harris fellow) who had a wonderful sense of humor and adventure. Tom and Nancy enjoyed many trips with friends and family and his love of pastries and a good joke were legendary. Tom attended the Kingston College of Art which led him to a career as a graphic designer, engraver and then as the Creative Director of Public Affairs for the Government of Alberta. His art is displayed in galleries, businesses and homes throughout Japan & England as well as many cities in Canada, in addition to the Alberta Legislature. Tom and Nancy previously resided in England, Edmonton & Kelowna where they made many lasting friendships. The family wishes to thank the caring & attentive staff at the Sturgeon, Glenrose and most particularly the Fort Saskatchewan Community Hospital. We especially were comforted by the compassionate and professional care shown by Dr. Hult, Dr. Lechelt and Sara Moermann. A memorial service celebrating Tom's life will be held at 1PM on Saturday, March 1, 2014 at St. Augustine's Anglican Church - 6110 Fulton Road, Edmonton, Alberta. A private interment will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Fort Saskatchewan Community Hospital Foundation, Room 1C - 012, 9401 86 Avenue, Fort Saskatchewan, AB T8L 0C6.
