Dr. Thomas Blair Costin

Dr. Costin was our family doctor from the time we moved to Burlington in 1970 until his retirement. He was an incredibly kind, thoughtful, and giving man. HIs dedication to his patients was remarkable. He made house calls, phoned to wish us well before an operation, visited us in the hospital before going to his office, and was readily available should a need arise. His willingness to listen to and help with personal and family matters was greatly appreciated. I enjoyed his cheerfulness and sense of humour. He was a man of faith who loved God, life, his patients, and his family. Close to his retirement he told me he was looking forward to spending time with his family. On behalf of the Suitor family, we thank Dr. Costin´s family for sharing him with us and send them our deepest condolences.

Dear Penny: So sad to hear of Blair's passing. He will be dearly missed by family and former patients. My deepest sympathy to you Penny and your family. My prayer and thoughts are with you. Carol Anne (Walser) Jeffers.

What a wonderful family Doctor for 25 years for our family.
Tremendous respect for his kindness and caring. Deepest condolences to his family.

Dr. Costin was always so respected in our community as a man of principle who always stood up for what he believed. He and his family put words to action even when it was difficult. Sincere condolences to Penny and all the family.

Dr Costin...how much we loved him. Kind, gentle, always willing to listen & understand. He was our family doctor since 1965, and would help & provide care whenever needed. The Harper Family will always remember & hold close to our hearts his love.

Dr Costin was an amazing man he was our family Dr for many years. He went above and beyond what most people would do. I remember when my mother was very ill he would stop by my parent´s house and check and see how she was doing. To me that showed he was much more than a Dr he was a great man who cared for everyone. He will be missed by many I am sure. God bless him.

I would like to extend heartfelt sympathy to the Costin family on behalf of the McKay family. We are sorry for the passing of Blair (Dr. Costin to me) Many memories of your lovely always growing beautiful family at St. Pat's. Remembering many of the positive comments made over the years of Dr. Costin bymy parents. We hope you find strength in your faith and memories. I life full of love and kindness is surely his legacy. With love and prayers, Joanne McKay

He was our doctor until his retirement. A truly wonderful physician, kind and caring. Our sincere condolences.

We moved to Tamarac Dr when I was 3. I remember going to Dr. Costin in his home on White Pines, the aquarium in the waiting room was always a favorite. I also remember house calls, such a wonderful man he was. He looked after my parents for probably 50 years and for that I thank him eternally. Rest in peace, a beautiful soul

Deepest condolences on your loss. Dr. Costin was our family doctor from when I was a child until his retirement. He looked after both my kids as well. He will be deeply missed.

You were such a wonderful man and a very good doctor. My brother Jim and I had quite a discussion regarding your career when you two interned together at Hamilton General, and it was through him that I got your name. And I've thought about you quite often, and where you were. Rest in Peace, Blair.

A wonderful and gifted doctor who was our family doctor until his retirement. God bless.

My condolences Penny, to you and your family

So sad to hear this news. Dr Costin was an amazing Dr to my family. He delivered some of our children and helped us through some good and rough times. He was a sweet, caring man. He will be greatly missed.
