It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved father, Ian Patrick Brady, at the age of 86. Born to Lily and Patrick Brady in Saltcoats, Scotland, Ian was their eldest son who led his parents to Canada, before they eventually settled in California in 1953. Ian remained in Toronto, where he met and married his devoted wife of 65 years, Mary Louise.

Ian's greatest joys in life were his daughters, Keli (Jeff) and Kathryn (Basil), and he was immensely proud of his grandchildren, James (Liz), Bryan (Stephanie), Abigail, and Amara, as well as his great-granddaughter, Sloane.

Ian began his career in IT in Toronto in 1953 with Bulova Watches. He was later recruited by Massey Ferguson, a role that took the family to Des Moines, Iowa, and subsequently to England. Upon returning to Canada in 1979, Ian joined London Life in London, Ontario, a position he cherished and later moved to Imperial Life in Toronto. He concluded his distinguished career as Vice President of Finance at CUMIS in Burlington. Ian valued every place he worked and, above all, the people he met along the way.

Ian loved his homeland Scotland and spent much time at his cottage in Kincardine, ON, where he watched the Kincadine Pipe band march down the main street every summer Saturday! He enjoyed a round of golf and entertaining friends and family.

A memorial visitation will be held on Saturday, July 20th, from 1 to 3:30 PM at Kopriva Taylor Funeral Home in Oakville. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the Diabetes Foundation.
