- A Life Well-Lived - M. Charles "Chuck" Noltie, 1930 - 2022
It is with great sadness that we give notice of the passing of M. Charles "Chuck" Noltie. Chuck was born February 9, 1930, in London, Ontario, to Violet M.E. Noltie (n?e Perry) and Charles "Chas" W. Noltie. Chuck died on May 25, 2022, at age 92.
As a youth, he attended Empress Elementary and Central High School in London, after which he completed an Honours Bachelor's of Business Administration degree in 1951 at the University of Western Ontario. He was an accomplished student, the first in his family to pursue post-secondary education, and he maintained a life-long association with the Business School and with several fellow graduates. His sons, and several of their children, also attended Western.
After college, Chuck was hired by the Ford Motor Company of Canada, spent a brief stint with IBM, and he then returned to Ford where he spent the remainder of his career. Some of Chuck's early years with Ford were spent in Calgary, and it was on a blind date that he was paired with nurse Shirley J. Peel, a partnership which was to last 67 years following their 1955 wedding.
Career advancement at Ford saw the pair move and then leave a number of cities in western Canada (including Edmonton, Regina, and Winnipeg). A son was born to them in 1958 while back in Calgary; together the threesome moved in 1960 to Mississauga, Ontario (then Port Credit). Their house on Wateska Boulevard became the family home for 56 years, their 2016 departure from which was the result of failing health. It was to that home that they welcomed two additional sons (1962, 1965) and a daughter (1966). Sunrise Senior Living in Mississauga was their final address; the care there was outstanding.
Chuck's career with Ford saw him assigned roles of progressively increasing responsibility, including Truck and Fleet Sales, Regional Manager - Central Region, Regional Manager - Eastern Region, National Parts and Service Manager, and Director of Dealer Development and Market Representation. The Qu?bec assignment resulted in the family moving to Beaconsfield (in the West Island of Montr?al), for the years 1973 - 1977, during which Chuck and the family enjoyed attending the 1976 Olympics. The family then returned to their Mississauga home where Chuck and Shirley resided for nearly four more decades. Chuck retired from Ford in 1990 after nearly four decades of dedicated and devoted service, having spent his career doing work that he truly enjoyed.
Chuck participated in a number of hobbies through his life, including rabbit breeding, bird watching, stamp collecting, fishing, photography, music appreciation, world travel, epicurean adventures, and reading about current events, history, and biographies. His greatest leisure passion was the family cottage ("Loon Lodge") on Cameron Lake in the Kawarthas, acquired in 1977, and which remains under family ownership. This became the hub of family activities on weekends throughout the year, and later for vacations involving the children and grandchildren. Numerous celebrations, and many of the family's fondest moments, and occurred in this beloved place.
Chuck was also an active member of the community, e.g., serving for many years in various roles in Scouting, which resulted in him receiving formal recognition for his many contributions. He was a life-long church-goer, first in the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (now Community of Christ; including Maitland Street, Montr?al, and Mississauga congregations), and later in the United Church of Canada (St. Stephen's-on-the-Hill congregation) where Shirley worshipped. He also helped organize numerous neighbourhood events and activities for residents of the Mississauga Gardens community.
Chuck is survived by his wife, Shirley, (i) a son, Douglas [wife Elaine; daughter Aislinn with husband Keegan Wright and son Kieran; daughter Brianne; daughter Caitlynn], (ii) a son, Brant [wife Patricia; daughter Dayna with husband Tyler Duprey; daughter Kirsten; daughter Leigh-Anne], (iii) a son, Keith [wife Elizabeth; daughters Miyah, Janna, and Emma], and (iv) a daughter Karen [daughter Patricia with husband Roy Resende and girls Layla and Londyn; son Gregary; daughter Maddison]. Chuck was pre-deceased by his parents, his sister and brother-in-law (Elaine and Bill Pardey), and Shirley's sister and husband (Ernestine and Arthur Harden). Many nieces and nephews remain, as do relatives in southwestern Ontario.
Chuck's passing at Trillium Hospital was somewhat unexpected, but occurred quietly and peacefully, surrounded by an admiring family whose love for him knew no bounds. Chuck touched numerous lives in many positive ways, most of all those of his children. Any endeavour in which he participated was better for his contributions.
Six months after his death, Shirley also passed away. A public Celebration of Life for both Chuck and Shirley is scheduled for
June 24, 2023, at St. Stephen's-on-the-Hill United Church, 998 Indian Road, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada L5H 1R5 (Lat . 43?32'27.87" N; Long, 79?36'54.98" W). Interment in the Peel family plot in Queen's Park Cemetery, Calgary, will follow at a later date.
