Obituary for Ronald Baxter
Baxter, Ronald
Ron was a proud Canadian citizen, immigrating to Canada from Scotland in 1975.
Ron embraced all that makes Canada great: he was an avid outdoorsman, was
fiercely loyal to his beloved Toronto Maple Leafs, and spent an amazing career
with his friends at General Motors building a better life for his family. His greatest
joy was spending time with his grandchildren.
Ron passed away peacefully with his loving family by his side on Sunday, March
21, 2021 at the age of 70. Beloved husband and best friend of 46 years to May
(nee Maloney). Loving father of Karen Anderson (Pete) and Tiffany Caulfield
(Rob). Cherished Papa of Ella, Chloe, Fox and Mack. Dear brother of Janet
McDonagh, John Baxter and Annabelle Murdoch. Loving uncle to Katie Hassay
(Montana), and Kelly McDonagh (Felicity). Predeceased by his parents John and
Isabella Baxter and his brother William Baxter.
In keeping with Ron's wishes, cremation has taken place. A celebration of Ron’s
life will be held at a later date. Ron would hope and expect everyone to live their
lives to the fullest and enjoy every minute.
