Not sure what to say?

My belated condolences to the DeGroote family. I had two opportunities to meet Mr. DeGroote. I will always be grateful for his kindness. God Bless.

My most sincere condolences to the DeGroote family.

Gary, Joni, Tim and Michael, Anne and I are very sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. He was an admiral, generous and kind man whose company we always enjoyed. May he rest in peace and know that you will always remember him in your hearts. As will we.

Mike gave me the chance to start my career out of school in the waste industry way way back in the good old days of that industry at Laidlaw Waste Systems. What a great time that was to be involved with the team there - so much excitement and growth - we all learned so much from Mike and his brilliance. He taught us to work hard , play hard and grow. A true industry titan. My deepest condolences from the Mandryk families of Tillsonburg and Ancaster. Thanks Mike and Rest In Peace !!

Fortunate to know the man..........!

Dear Gary, Joni, Mike and Tim, I am so sorry to hear of the recent loss of your beloved dad. It's been many years since I've seen all of you, but I sure have fond memories of the great times at the cottage in Turkey Point. Beach bonfires, Mickey driving us for ice cream, boat rides to the Sandhills - all the things families love to do together. My thoughts are with you, Patti Caruso

Truly a Man amongst Men

So sorry to hear the passing we´ll be rembered by many friends in Langton and Hamilton Perry

Rest in peace Mr. DeGroote, we take solace in knowing you lived a remarkable life. May your family find comfort during this time.
