Albert Edward "Ed" Cuthbert

Ed Cuthbert was born and grew up in Cochrane, Ontario. He graduated high school at 17 years of age and was accepted into the Royal Canadian Air Force where he trained and became a pilot. He served his country during the Cold War as a "Captain" flying over the seacoasts keeping watch for enemy submarines. From the service, Ed went to work for Air Canada where, during his career, he traveled the world flying both cargo and passenger planes. One of his favorite past times was swapping "Fly-Boy" stories with fellow pilots!

Ed will also be remembered for his unending love for the game of golf, his remarkable knowledge of history, and his engaging passion for politics.

Ed passed away peacefully at his home in New Port Richey, Florida at the age of 82.
He was preceded in death by his loving first wife, Beverly (nee McCharles), his son Eric and his brothers James and Ronald Cuthbert.

He was survived by his second wife, Tracey (nee Keller) Arand-Cuthbert; sister Lynn Cuthbert, brother-in-law David Mcdougle; daughter Wendy Cuthbert and granddaughter Rhiannon, her father Sean O'Malley; grandchildren Nicole, Christopher, Paige and Taylor Cuthbert, and their mother Shirley Cuthbert.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Thursday, October 2nd from 2-4 pm at Timber Greens Country Club, New Port Richey, FL. A Canadian service to celebrate Ed's life will take place at the Barrie Union Cemetery in Barrie, Ontario on a date to be determined by family.
