Cyril was the happiest in the woods hunting, trapping and berry picking, or on the water fishing, he didn’t stop for much. He loved spending time with his family, especially his grandson, Dylan, the greatest pride and joy of his life and his favorite hockey player. He was a strong, devoted and loving man, he adored his wife, and his daughters and grandson were his world. He was a pillar of the Thorne family, always there when you needed him and gave his whole heart in everything he did.

Thank you to everyone who helped on January 23, to bring Cyril back to his family; a special thank you to Angus Brace.
