It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Stephen Hitchcock, 84 years, on Thursday, November 4, 2021, at Health Sciences North. Beloved husband of Marjene Hitchcock (nee Jack). Loving father of Candy McCartney (Rick – predeceased in 2016) of Elliot Lake, Tammy Abresch (Paul) of Sudbury, Steven Hitchcock (predeceased in 1979), and Tracy Wagner (Ken) of Hanmer. Cherished Poppa to Stephanie, Micheal, Ricky, Ryan, Sheena, Ethan, Kyle, and great grandfather of 12. Born in New Brunswick, Stephen later moved to Ontario and started working in Elliot Lake where he met, married, and started a family with Marge. They moved to Val Caron where he worked and eventually retired from Falconbridge. Stephen enjoyed camping with family and friends, and a good game of hockey. As per the family’s wishes, there will be no visitation or service.
My sincere condolences for your lost. I have fond memories from my childhood and beyond to my pre adult years. Mr. Hitchcock was a kind and gentle man. Memories include that first TNT Skidoo to having a few pints and sauna at Otter Lake. I am sure he will truly be missed. Thoughts and prayers to the Hitchcock family.
