1. My condolences to the family of Lorne Bacon. He had a great sense of humor. I remember one time he came to help me get the water out of my trunk of my car. Another time I had bought flowers for myself and he said, "Are they for me?" I laughed and said, "No they are for me!" Lorne always had a great smile for everyone! My thoughts and prayers are with you Sandy and your family! I am glad I got to meet both of you!

Sandy, this is such a beautiful tribute to an incredible man. We have some great memories of times we'd get together over the years. Lorne's fun-loving outlook on life and devotion to you and his family was such an inspiration to all those around him. He truly did make the world a better place! Sending our love and hugs to you all. xo

Lorne was simply a good man. He had a special place in my heart since 1992 because of the way he supported me when my partner passed. He didn't care about the corporate rules of bereavement; he simply cared about me. A few years after that, I had the pleasure of working directly for Lorne and I most admired how he dealt with people so easily, simply, and fairly. And of course, the fun and games that came out when the stress got high (see picture below as the project team supported a member who shaved his head for cancer!). Lorne always had a smile and a story to share... a real people person. He will be missed. Sending big hugs to Sandy and the rest of the big family. xo

To the guy who taught me how to stop on skates (without wiping out), mastered the art of tying my skates just tight enough, and gave Bren and me the gift of time together on countless vacations—thank you. Your smile, laugh, and that legendary whistle for your girls are just a few of the things I’ll always remember—with a smile, and maybe a few happy tears. You’ll be so missed.

Sandy, I'm so sorry to hear of Lorne's passing. Only encountered a couple of social gatherings together but, none stands out more than him wearing his tie around his head at the Kopec wedding in Medicine Hat as he was dancing up a storm!! What a fun guy!! Clearly, you have bountiful & beautiful memories to cherish ❤️

Our Condolances to Sandy & Family. Lorne will be sorely missed at all the Coral Sands Functions. Here's to you Lorne "CHEERS"

What a beautiful tribute to a great guy. Thinking of Sandy, Bren, Kel and all the Bacons. We will miss Lornie and his fun and adventurous spirit

He lived a wonderful life. Hugs to all of you ❤️🙏🏻

My condolences to the Bacon family. Lorne always brought his energy and smiles to boost a room. Cherish the memories.

Sandy, what a beautiful tribute to Lorne, He certainly lived life to the fullest. Our condolences to you and the family.

I feel so priveledged to have known Lorne. Such a stand-out, kind and welcoming way about him and a truly genuine person. Thinking about you, Sandy, Bren, Kelly, and the rest of the family.

I'm so sorry Sandy. My condolences to you and your family. I have fond memories of when I worked in IT at Hydro (40 odd years ago) with Lorne. And let's not forget the fishing/golf weekends!

I have many fond memories of Lorne as a highly competent co=worker at Manitoba Hydro who would always brighten your day with his dazzling smile. But mostly I remember Lorne when we got together at the annual kids' Christmas party at 820 Taylor and we would joke about being the oldest Dads there. We had a lot of fun and Lorne never actually got old.

Lorne was President when I was Secretary at Coral Sands. He took me under his wings and answered all my questions. He always had a smile. Many fond memories of Lorne and Sandy. Our condolences to Sandy and family.

What a wonderful tribute! Lorne lived life to the fullest. Our sincere sympathy to Sandy and the family

Sandy, this is an awesome tribute to a man I considered my best friend for over 60 years. Joanne and I are thinking of you along with Bren, Kelly, Lindsay, Brent and Todd as well as all of your grandchildren in this moment of sadness. We have great memories of our numerous times spent traveling with the two of you all over the world. They were filled with good times and laughter. We will miss his sense of humor and good times dearly. A great friend to both of us.

Sandy and family. Our sincere condolences on your loss. He was a great person and will be missed by many.

RIP Brother. You will be greatly missed.

Such a beautiful tribute to Lorne. It has captured him to a "tee""

He was such a wonderful man and a very special friend.

We will miss him. ❤️

Sandy:

When I seen this, the good times of Hydro IT social life flashed through my mind. Lorne was such an integral part of it, that it made those days lifelong memories. And, now that I know Lorne was a Mustang fan, I'll think of him every time I drive mine.

Rest in peace Lorne.

We extend our deepest sympathies. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

A beautiful tribute to a great fellow. My sympathy to Sandy and family. Dave and I had such great, fun times during the many winters at Coral Sands. May you cherish your memories together.

We are sadden by this news. Such a great guy! Liked by all. He will be missed by all who knew him.

A beautiful tribute to a wonderful guy! A life well lived, at the ended of the day, that's all we can ask for!💕

What a beautiful tribute to Lorne. My deepest condolences to Sandi and family.

Nick and I want you to know we feel your loss so very much. Lorne was such a special friend. We enjoyed his visits to our deck all those winters in Arizona. He always had a smile on his face and made us feel better if we were troubled. Always there if we needed him. Hope your Jets make it to the final, Lorne.

With lots of love and hugs to you and your family Sandy.

We were honoured to have our paths cross during ringette season what seems like many years ago. Sandy we are sending you and your family our heartfelt sympathy. Lorne you truly were one of the best As this beautiful tribute shows!

Awesome tribute to a wonderful friend and family man whom we will miss dearly. We will always have fond Arizona memories of Lorney and his beautiful loving family. He was my brothers friend for years and I agree that Lorne & Sandy's Arizona oranges were the best ones in Coral Sands Mobile park. We had many laughs and fun times with him and his beautiful wife Sandy.

I seem to have posted just my name and my Mom's name twice. :( So sorry. Not sure what I did wrong. (Not tech savvy). I wanted to say on behalf of my Mother that my parents (Dick & Lorraine Cray from Iowa) used to have a wonderful time with the Bacon's at Coral Sands Park in Apache Junction, Arizona. Lots of fun memories. I am sure that my Dad and Lorne are cracking a beer open together in Heaven right now. You have our deepest sympathy. Hugs. From Carla and Lorraine Cray.

Such a beautiful tribute to an incredible husband, father, grandfather and friend.

Sandy, Brenley, Kelly and all the bacon bits, I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. He was such a great man and will be fondly remembered and sorely missed by many. I feel so lucky that I got to know Lorne and spend some good times with him. My heart is with you all. ❤️

I am so sorry Sandy to read of the passing of your wonderful husband, Lorne. He was a kind man and always had a smile for you. My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

We will love and miss you forever Lorney.

Our most favourite trips, family dinners, and parties are the ones we spent with you! Thank you for always being the life of every party, our go-to guy for all things house related, the person who we all wanted to take a fireball shot with. I'll cherish all the memories, and the noise complaints in Maui, the wine bottle in the lake, the raft on Ingolf waters after a liquid lunch, the boys always trying to beat you in a round of golf, jumping in the pool before the heater went on. The best of times because of you.. 🩷

Dear Sandy and Family,

Thinking about you at this time. What a full life Lorne lived. I enjoyed reading about him and everything you shared.

Im so sorry for your loss! I hope you are able to find comfort in the many fond memories and in being surrounded by family and those that you love.

Warm Regards,

Heather Campbell

I'm so sorry Sandy for the loss of your dear husband, father and Grandfather. Please accept my deepest sympathies to you all.thinking of you at this time🙏♥️😔

What a lovely tribute to a wonderful person. We loved being your neighbours and cherish the memories we have. Our condolences to you Sandy and the rest of your family. He was one of a kind!

Lorne was such a kind man, it showed coaching our girls in ringette. Rest well, you will be missed by all those who knew you!

What a beautiful tribute to a wonderful man! We are so sorry for your loss Sandy and family. Hugs to you all

Such a beautiful tribute to Lorne! We cherish all those fun times in Coral Sands. Our thoughts are with you and your family.

Fantastic video of a life well lived. Loved the picture of his grandchild on his lap with the hand in the air. ❤️

What a beautiful tribute to a wonderful man! Always with a smile, joke & bud light in hand. I remember he was giving us advice when we were expecting H, describing how it as the best moments of his life holding his own children for the first time. ❤️

Just beautiful, Sandy and family ! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and all the family.. Hugs

My deepest sympathy to Sandi and family. Cherish all the great memories you have. You both have accomplished so much.

Lorne was truly one of a kind. One of my favourite memories of Lorne was when Bren and I flew down to Coral Sands for Spring Break. He picked us up from the airport in a giant old car and treated us to a week of bbq steak, aquacise in the pool and what we decided was the most “sporty” day of all time - watching spring training baseball and then driving straight to a Coyote’s game. When we left Mesa, I was already counting down the years until I could also get a place at Coral Sands. You are always guaranteed to have a good time if you are with the Bacons. Lorne’s sense of humour and full-of-life personality will be missed by many but will live on in his amazing kids. Sending lots of love.

I was sent Lorne's obituary from friends that attended Windsor Park Collegiate wayback in the day---it was heart warming to read his life story and all the fabulous adventures that he and Sandy shared. Crtainly a life well lived!

My deepest condolences to his entire family

What a beautiful tribute to great guy- who we could always count on for a corny joke. Take comfort in all your wonderful memories and knowing he passed knowing he was loved heart and soul by his devoted family.

What a beautiful tribute to a beautiful family man. Lorne always made us laugh and feel welcomed. We are grateful to the Rutherford family for allowing us the opportunity to get to meet Lorne and his incredible family. Please know we are thinking of you all and sending you so much love.

Lorne will surley be missed by all his hydro friends.

Hydro mixed curling still misses Lorne and Sandy.

One of the good ones !

A beautiful tribute to an incredible man. To Sandy Brenley Kelly and families we send our love to you at this most difficult time. It is impossible to imagine a world without Lorne in it. We love you all

Our condolences to the whole family - Lorne was a special man who made everyone smile. No matter if he was on the golf course, or sitting in our yard in Arizona enjoying my roasted tomatillo salsa. He will be missed by many - and our hearts go out to all of you. Take comfort in your memories - and his legacy will live on in ours.

Our hearts go out to you Sandy and Brenley and Kelley and your families. Such a wonderful tribute to a great guy and one of our favourite people. We had the pleasure of meeting Lorne when we worked together at Mackie Data and Bob and Lorne's relationship continued at Acklands Lorne became a very special friend to Bob - their friendship was no doubt nurtured by many business trips, one of which resulted in a great cup game in Toronto. I don't think we ever heard all of the stories from that memorable event. We are all better off for having known and loved Lorne and he will be missed by many.

Sandy, Kelly, Brenley and families, what a beautiful tribute to a beautiful man. My heartfelt condolences on the loss of Lorne. He fought with grace and dignity and lived life to the fullest. May you always keep his spirit alive by living life to the fullest and remind yourself that he was blessed with an amazing family. Love and friendship, always, Louise♥️

Dear Sandy, & Lorne's beautiful Family We are heartbroken for everyone & sad that we lost this wonderful friend of ours. His fight was courageous We Loved all of our FaceTime visits with you both We will miss our "Best Man" but he will never leave our hearts RIP Lorne
