Our condolences to the family of Peter Ford. I enjoyed playing in the band "Sounds of the Forties" with Peter for many years. His sense of humour kept us entertained during practices and gigs. He was a very modest, accomplished man. And, always the gentleman. Murray Knipfel and Germaine Besanger

My sincere condolences to all of Peters family. I worked with Pete for many years and he was always calm, efficient, fun and a great sense of humour, you needed that to be the Head of the OR. We had so many fun times with Pete & Lynn, and their many friends. He will be missed by his family and all who knew him, Rest in Peace My Friend.

My condolences to the Ford family. I met Peter many years ago when he was the Head Nurse of the Cranbrook operating room. Thanks to him for hiring me, I had a long career in that department . I loved his and Lynn’s sense of humour. Marlene Skucas
