He was a joy to be with, the Y members will be saddened by his passing.
I am so sad.

I knew Weldon well over the many years that we both experienced trying to stay fit at the Y. He was a good guy, a good lawyer, and apparently a great father. Our sadness goes with you.

Weldon and I first met in 1975 when, as an articling student, I was looking for a job as a lawyer. He gave me my first interview. Although I ended up working elsewhere, Weldon and I became friends.
I have long admired Weldon for his commitment to his work as a patent lawyer, respected his devotion to his family as a loving father and husband and appreciated his caring about big social issues.
Our first piece of patent litigation against each other lasted for many years and was extremely hard fought. Yet we kept our friendship together. I learned from him to separate feelings one might have for an opponent in the courtroom from those one should have for the same friend outside it.
I was lucky to be in the Ontario Court of Appeal on the special occasion of his receiving his Queen’s Counsel honorific. It was even more special for him in that five judges, not the usual three, were on the panel that day. I still hold it as one of my fondest memories of Weldon.
For many years and until he retired from practice Weldon invited me to work as co-counsel on a few of his cases. I am glad we were able to work together. I got to learn more about Weldon and to learn more from him. I was indeed fortunate to have been one of Weldon’s friends in law.
I am sorry and extend my deepest condolences to his family.

I met Weldon, aka the Bread Man, a few years back when I started working at Mustard Seed Fontbonne Ministries. From the first introduction it was obvious to me that he was a very special human being. One who lived joyfully, and believed in serving those in need without fanfare. While we were always appreciative of the bread that he delivered that helped us feed many, the truth be told, it was those few precious moments in Weldon’s company that we were grateful for the most. Our hearts are deeply saddened to learn of his passing, but equally we are blessed that we had the good fortune to meet such a kind and precious soul. Condolences to Lorraine and the Green family. - AnnMarie

I will so terribly miss being able to see Weldon delivering bread to Mustard Seed. What an inspirational, amazing man! I felt a special connection to him as the youngest of 7 myself. I will never forget his examples of generosity and selflessness nor his cheerful disposition rain or shine. He is a person I will always admire and strive to be more like. Weldon, please know we will continue to get the bread and "sweet stuff" out to the people that need it. Rest in peace. Until we meet again. Sending love to Lorraine and his family. xox

I lived next door to your loving family in the late 70s early 80s. I remember when Jenny was taken too soon and how you found your way forward. Your dad's belief in a life of service and finding life's joys was obvious, even too a young teenager figuring out her way back then. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers as you navigate your way through this moment of loss to hold close Weldon's legacy in your lives. He will remain an inspiration to me as will your family. RIP

I met Weldon later in his life when he resided with my next-door neighbours, Brian & Theresa Green. We became friends and spent many hours in the backyard, ruminating over world events, enjoying the garden, expounding on the merits of single- malt scotch!! I marvelled at his diligence, delivering car loads of bread to city food banks, hanging an occasional loaf on my front door. He loved choral music. When Brian, Sarah and I sang in the same choir, Weldon and Lorraine could always be seen in the audience!!
Weldon was a philosopher, a savant, a friend, a neighbour. He was one of the GOOD GUYS! Susan

Dear Madams/Sir,
I am member of the staff of Sunshinecentres for Seniors where I meet your father. Every Monday morning as Ray of hope He delivered bread at 460 Jarvis. My clients and staff were so happy to see again once a week. I remarked him that Monday they have a lunch because of his generosity . Personally few people has the impact on my life as Walden and his action. Feel very proud of him.
With my sincere sympathy

I first met Weldon over 10 years ago while he was holding a bag of bread in a bakery. Last December I saw him surrounded by family and friends at his 90th birthday party. Until covid hit, we would hug when we met picking up bread to deliver at one of the many charities he helped support. He will be greatly missed by many people.

Brian, Kathy, Becky, Dan, Greg and Scott.
I am truly sorry to hear about the loss of your dad.
He was such a kind loving dad and I have many fond memories of him as I can honestly say, I pretty much lived at your place, growing up!
Thinking of you all. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
Hugs
