Obituary of David John Rosser

ROSSER, David John, age 91, of Kingston, Ontario, passed away the morning of Friday August 3, 2018 at Extendicare Kingston surrounded by his family. Born May 1, 1927, in Montreal, Quebec, he was the son of the late Victor Duncan Rosser and Mary Gertrude (Bell) Rosser.

He is survived by his loving wife of 55 years, Marilyn Ruth (Thornton) Rosser. Devoted father to Beverley Ruth Rosser of Toronto, Ontario, and Christopher David Rosser of Beamsville, Ontario, David was pre-deceased by brothers Allan, Griffith, Donald and Kenneth Bruce Rosser.

Brought up in Toronto from around age 10, David lived in Toronto until 1977 when he and his family moved to Kingston. Above all, David valued his time with his friends and his family, who hold special memories of their times spent at Sauble Beach.

The family would like to extend their most sincere thanks to Dr. William Beck and the entire staff at Extendicare Kingston for their care and kindness towards David and the Rosser family.
