HARVEY TAYLOR BEECROFT Born in Fenelon Falls, Ontario, May 31, 1921, passed away peacefully in his 94th year at home in the presence of his family on Sunday, October 12, 2014. Harvey, an award-winning scholar, graduate of the University of Toronto School of Architecture (Delta Epsilon Chapter - Kappa Sigma) and member of the Royal Society of Architects, had a distinguished career of more than 60 years contributing thousands of original designs for homes, schools, churches and other buildings to the skyline of Southern Ontario. Harvey was a decorated veteran of World War II, having served overseas as a Lieutenant in the Royal Regiment of Canadian Artillery. Harvey, widely respected as a thoughtful, friendly, "old school" gentleman, loved big band music, dancing, curling, skiing and tennis. Harvey lived most of his adult life in Bayview Village and was a founding member of Forest Grove United Church, to which he devoted a great deal of time and energy over the past 50 years. Predeceased by his loving wife of 59 years Jean, Harvey is survived by his children Rick of Adelaide, Australia, Elizabeth of Oakwood, Ontario, and Beverly (Peter) of Markham, Ontario. He was a proud, loving and generous "Poppa" to Michael, Ashlee, Shawn, Kyle, Tyler and Andrew. A special Memorial Service is planned for December at Forest Grove United Church in Willowdale. Friends and acquaintances of Harvey are encouraged to contact the Church in the next few weeks for details. In lieu of flowers, donations to Sunnybrook Hospital, the Osteoporosis Society or to Forest Grove United Church would be welcomed.
