With much sadness we announce David Mellett’s death on January 18, 2023. He passed away surrounded by family at Bethell Hospice, Inglewood.
David is survived by his loving wife Sylvia, and his sons Richard and Brian, siblings Bruce and Laurie, and many nieces and nephews.
David worked as a Civil Engineer. He was a hard worker and always had a project on the go, but his favourite place was behind the grill at home or at the family cottage on Lake Huron.
He will be greatly missed but leaves us many wonderful memories of a devoted husband and father.
A celebration of David’s life will be held in the reception room at the Egan Funeral Home, 203 Queen Street S (Hwy 50), Bolton (905-857-2213) on Saturday, January 21, 2023 from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate a donation to the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada in David’s memory.
Condolences for the family may be offered at www.EganFuneralHome.com

I am deeply saddened to hear of Dave’s passing.
I worked with Dave years ago at PinnacleOne, and ‘against’ him at JCHP. Dave was one of the good guys, honest, capable and professional.
I will miss him. My heart goes out to his family.
