McTaggart, Thomas Robert 'Tommy'
It is with great sadness that the family of Thomas McTaggart of Thornbury, and formerly of Toronto, announces his passing at Etobicoke General Hospital on Friday, April 17, 2020 at the age of 74.
Tom was much loved and will be deeply missed by his wife Raquel Zapata Beltran, his brother Mike McTaggart and his wife Mary, his step daughter Sheila, extended family and his large circle of friends.
He was predeceased by his parents Robert and Margaret (nee Muter) McTaggart and by his brother Peter McTaggart.
Tom ‘Tommy’ was a great, caring and always upbeat person who made friends with everyone he met. He enjoyed boating, fishing, skiing and playing hockey. Tommy especially enjoyed family get-togethers and hanging out with friends. He was a kind soul and will be fondly remembered by many.
Due to the Covid-19 restrictions, a celebration of Tom’s life will be conducted at a later date when it is safe to do so.

I fondly remember Tom as one of a kind: he was admired and respected and dearly loved by his family and friends. He never failed in his magnanimous spirit to reach out and touch the hearts of others. I remember him as a warm, caring, compassionate soul with a gentle demeanour and with impeccable ingenuity credentials. He was quietly intrepid in his passion for hockey and boating. He was as remarkable flying over the wake made by a speed boat on one ski as he was tackling the ski slopes of Ontario and Eastern Quebec. This is how I will remember him: ….forever young, always adventurous, always kind, always remarkable.
In this darkest hour I offer my sincere condolences to his family and life-long friends.
