 It is with extreme sorrow that we announce the peaceful passing of Bertram (Bert) Drynan formally of Chalk River in his 98th year on Friday, March 14th, 2025.  Beloved husband of 71 years to Mildred (nee Tiegs) and devoted father of Gail (late Melvin Maxwell) and Sherry.  Predeceased by parents Charles and Susan (nee Byers) Drynan and sister Gladys Leech (late Sam).  Brother-in-law of Eileen Fick (late Basil), Herbert Tiegs (Edith), Elsolene Hoffman (Don) and Mary Adair.  Survived by many nieces and nephews.  Bert spent 40 years working at AECL as a respected welder. As per Bert’s request cremation has taken place and private interment will be held at a later date.  Donations in his memory may be made to Caressant Care Cobden or St Andrew’s United Church Chalk River.  Interment in Cobden Union Cemetery.

Many thanks to Laurie and the devoted staff at Caressant Care for their compassion and care and especially to Jack who made dad’s last year an adventure as they hit the road to tour the countryside.

Dad’s quick wit made him a friend to all who met him.  He will be missed.
