<div itemprop="description">Van Wolde, Rene <br /> <br />April 12, 1934 - August 9, 2015 <br /> <br />Passed peacefully surrounded by his family. Beloved husband of Tilly. Loving dad of Suzanne &amp; husband George, and Rene (1993) &amp; Denise. Proud Papa of Danielle (Adam), Michael, Aimee, Tyler and Colin. <br /> <br />He was a fiercely strong man, from stealing food for his family, from the Nazis during the war, to having a successful commercial sign business. He knew what hard work was all about and provided us with everything we could need or want. He played as hard as he worked, from frequent trips to Vegas to numerous parties over the years. He will be so so missed but at the same time we are very glad he is out of pain and away from that damn disease Alzheimers. Rest in peace now Dad. <br /> <br />Rene owned a successful commercial sign business (Acadian Signs) in Dearborn, Michigan. <br /> <br />Cremation has taken place. Visiting at James H. Sutton Funeral Home, 401 Sandwich St. S., Amherstburg (519-736-2134) on Wed. Aug. 12, 2015 from 1 p.m. until the time of Memorial Service at 3 p.m. <br /> <br />In lieu of flowers, memorial donations made to the Windsor Regional Cancer Center would be appreciated. <br /> <br />You may leave your condolences online at www.jhsuttonfuneral.ca <br /></div>
