March 20th 1943 – December 27th 2024
It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Michael at the age of 81, with his favourite piece by Mozart playing and his beloved wife Judy by his side. Michael was born in Britain, immigrated to Canada in 1968 and founded Slocombe & Associates where he was a trusted financial advisor for close to 50 years. He was also a founding member of the Conference For Advanced Life Underwriters (CALU). Sailing was one of his greatest passions, including Canada’s Cup (’72) and racing and cruising throughout the world as well as out of the RCYC and on Georgian Bay. This was followed closely by his love for international travel. Left to miss his absence are his devoted wife Judy Byle-Jones; brother Leo; sons Myles (Kirstin), Elliott (Francesca); daughter Claire (Darryl) and 6 grandchildren.
A Celebration of Life will be held in Collingwood in the spring of 2025, more details to come.
In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the Alzheimer’s Society of Canada in honour of Mike:
