Obituary of Douglas Wade Linton Bacon

Douglas Bacon

 Passed away suddenly on March 29th, 2023, at the age of 68 years.

Much loved husband of Brenda Bacon (nee Curtis) married for 45 years.  Adoring dad of Corinna Day (Philip) and Erin Van Allen (Hans). 

Cherished grandpa of Ethin, Liam and Lincoln and great grandpa of Sage.  Loving son of Lorna Bowler & the late Basil Bacon, and dear brother of Wayne Bacon (Patti) and Jennifer Copeland (Norm). He was predeceased by his brothers Rodney and David. Beloved son in law to William & the late Barbara Curtis. Dear brother-in-law to Brian Curtis (Cris), Alan Curtis (Lorie) and Ross Curtis (Niki).  He will be lovingly remembered by his many nieces, nephews, and friends.

Doug was a long-time employee at DuPont (Whitby) as an Industrial Mechanic/Millwright, where he was known for his dedication and ability to fix any problem that arose. What was truly special to him was helping family and friends with anything automotive related, always looking for the best or safest product for the best price.  Doug was everybody’s handy man. He was often seen detailing cars, riding ATVs, and woodworking. He was seldom seen without his Tilley Hat. Doug truly valued quality time with his family.

A Celebration of Doug’s life will be held at NORTHCUTT ELLIOTT FUNERAL HOME, 53 Division St. N. Bowmanville on Friday April 14th, 2023, from 1 – 2 pm.  Words of remembrance will be shared at 2 pm.  In lieu of flowers, Memorial Donations may be made to The Heart & Stroke Foundation.
