Millen, Gordon Richard 'Rick'

The family is saddened to announce the sudden passing of Rick on May 18, 2015 surrounded by his loving family and friends in his 64th year at the Juravinski Hospital. Beloved husband and best friend of Susan (nee Forli) for 32 years. Cherished father of Stephen (Beckie) Millen and Kelly (Jeff) Lunn. Proud Grandpa of Cameron, Will, Maddi, Marley, and Ryann. Predeceased by his parents Gordon and Audrey Millen and his sister Penny. Dearest brother of Lynn (Murray- fishing buddy) Beale, Laurie (Dave) Whitworth, and Sherry (the late Raymond) Lagace. Much loved brother-in-law of Lorraine and Richard Barone. He will be missed by many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. Rick will also be missed by his furry friends Tanner, Sera, Eko and Jaz. Best friend to Joe and Karen Quaranta and Margaret Campbell. Special thanks to Dr. A. Benger and nurse Wendy at the Juravinski Cancer Center for their many years of care and support and to Dr. Michael Pray and Dr. Aldina Matos for their compassion and guidance throughout this difficult journey. Thank you to the physicians and staff at the CICU/ ICU at the Juravinski Hospital for their tireless effort and exceptional care, you will never be forgotten. Rick retired from Stelco after many years as a millwright. He continued to work on 'his terms' with Kris at Staff Aid, most recently at National Steel Car. Rick enjoyed reading, traveling, fishing, hunting and spending time with family and friends.

In lieu of flowers, donations to OVC- Ontario Vet Clinic- Pet Trust Fund, 110 Gordon Street, Guelph or a charity of your choice would be appreciated by the family.

I will miss you so much Ritchie, Love Sue
