Thomas “Tom” David Hodgins
November 29, 2021
Peacefully with family by his side, at Victoria Hospital, on Monday, November 29, 2021, Tom Hodgins of London. Beloved husband of Janette Hodgins for 49 years. Loving father of Jeff (Tracey) Hodgins and Andrew Hodgins.
Fondly remembered by his sister-in-law Aileen Lyon, and Tom Grayson of London, and her children Craig (Shelly) and Janette; and by his brother-in-law Ewen Mackinnon (Rena) of Bishopton, Scotland and their children Sandra and Gordon.
He will also be missed by his faithful Westie, Brodie.
Tom worked for the City of London for many years until his retirement, primarily in the Building Division.
One of Tom’s great joys in life, after his family, was ‘playing with cars’. In his 20’s and 30’s it was Corvettes but in later years he focused on 1955, 1956 and 1957 Chevrolet Nomads. He enjoyed many hours tinkering in the garage and attending car shows.
Another great joy was spending time as a ‘snowbird’ in Peoria, Arizona. More cars, lots of sunshine, golf and good friends.
Cremation has taken place. Words of remembrance will be held at Westview Funeral Chapel, 709 Wonderland Road North, London, on Sunday, December 12, 2021 from 2:00 -4:00 p.m. Registration and proof of double vaccination are required to attend the visitation.
