Dennis SALLAWAY Obituary
Passed away peacefully September 24, 2012 at the age of 88. Survived by his 3 sons, John, Stephen and Keith and their spouses Anita, Lisa and Dawn, his grandchildren Christopher, Miranda, Bria, Daniel, Amanda and Colton, and his great-grandchildren Benjamin and Harper. Dennis spent many happy years volunteering at the West Vancouver Seniors' Centre where he was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award. Often heard singing, Dennis will be remembered for his magnificent basso profondo voice, and his love of Scottish country dancing, playing bridge, travel, and the opera. He was a wonderful and generous cook and baker of lemon tarts, and his talents were enjoyed and appreciated by many. He will be greatly missed by his friends and family across the country, from Toronto to Vancouver, as well as by his family in New Jersey.
