Tom Wakeman

   A.T. (Tom) Wakeman   Jan 27, 1924 – May 25, 2018

   Tom has gone to join his wife and best friend of 65 year, Gladys.

   Tom was the oldest of three sons born to Art and Peggy Wakeman in Raymore, Sask. Dad spent his working life with Burns Foods both in Kamsack and Saskatoon. He was a long time director of the Saskatoon Hilltop Football Club as well as Past President. Dad served in World War 11 in the RCAF, stationed in England.  He was a proud life member of Branch 24 of the Royal Canadian Legion in Kamsack where he was Past President and an executive member for many years.

   Dad and Mon spent many winters in Myrtle Beach with new found friends and later in Chilliwack, B.C. with the Allinott family and other family and many friends. Retirement took Dad and Mom to Madge Lake where they spent many happy times.  Here Dad enjoyed golf, woodworking and lake life with all his Kamsack friends having a very active social life.

   Left to mourn him and honour his memory are his daughter Pat Bladen, her sons Brett, Dean (Leigha) and great grandchildren Tristan (Rebecca) and Camille, Rick (Lois) and children Kailee (Andy) and Kent, Brother-in-law Wayne Rathie (Judy) and children, Brother-in-law Don Allinott, Len’s children Caren (Bob) and Barb, Don and Joan's children Bill (Patti), Scott (Kathy), Kelly, Twyla (James) and all of their children.
