Obituaries — 13 October 2009
In loving memory of Hartley Weston, who followed the pioneers.
Hartley was born to Kathleen and Alfred “Fritz” Weston on August 12, 1935 beside Howie Bay in Red Lake, to the sound of aircraft taking off and landing. His love for aviation never faded, when he could no longer fly, he relived his 35 years of love and wonder of the North by writing his book “Shadows on the Wind”.
He is survived by his loving wife Jennifer, son Lawrence, and daughters Val and Francie of Alberta, one sister and numerous nieces and nephews.
Thank you to all of his wonderful friends, who helped us during this painful time.
At Hartley’s request there was no service.
