We both extend our deepest condolences to Hazel and family. Having known Markus and Hazel through both our mutual love of our grandchildren .Markus expressed to us his admiration of his son in law which was evident whenever we participated in family gatherings.
Markus’s philosophy in life was never give up under any hardship …
Markus , had the tenacity to overcome issues most men would have succumbed earlier in life but he fooled everyone ……..he lived his way until the end……….

My deepest condolences . My 28 years in Nobleton would not have been the same without the Brunner family. The 3 girls all baby sat my son and daughter . Markus was very positive man , very handy at anything. We shared veggie plants for our gardens. Once I gave him 2 wheel and some steel panels . A day later he produced a heavy duty trailer for my lawn tractor . A cold drink on the deck. A Great friend indeed. You will be missed . Rest in Peace Markus …..

Our sincerest condolences to Hazel and all Family members. Our heart goes out to you at this difficult time. Markus was a special, full of life, always smiling person. He will never be forgotten. Rest In Peace Markus

We were so sorry to hear of Marcus’s passing. He was such a gentle man and his care and love for his family most important to him. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

The Gyger family sends their condolence to you Hazel and all the family. I met Hazel and Markus in 1979. My husband Hubi and Markus grew up 2 houses apart in Aesch Switzerland. Both were proud Swizz guys! We become close friends, sharing many great times. Hazel and Markus built a wonderful home. They had Irish Setters named Red, who were loved and spoiled by all. Markus always showed a great strength of character and positive attitude. He accepted what was, and carried on in his own way. He had a great love of gardening; built on his knowledge adapted new methods making his property a beautiful place. He loved sharing this joy with my mother Herta. He had a rare gift. His pride and love of his girls and grandchildren were his joy. You were his everything! Love to all from Erika, Hubert, Paul, Amy, Kurt, Sara Gyger.

I send my prayers and support to you and your family during this difficult time. Let the memories provide comfort in your journey through this loss.

Heidi, Jason, Sarah, Jamie, Nolan, Brie…and the Brunner Family

Our dearest and sincerest condolences to Hazel and the entire family. Markus was an inspiration to us all, to be kind and cherish every moment, to go through life with optimism, and to love his dearest, above all you, his family. After so many years in Canada, Markus still managed to make the distance feel small. He was always there. Markus’ visits to Switzerland were a happening for the entire family and a great joy for everyone. Your hospitality in Canada was unmatched. We share so many great memories with Markus, which will continue to live on. As will his spirit to accept life as it is, and enjoy everything in it. We wish you all the strength and courage in the world for this difficult time ahead. Love from Switzerland.

I have many very fond memories of our neighbours for many years. The Brunner family were lovely people. My dad and Markus were great fishing buddies. And Hazel and my dad used to tease each other, with lots of laughter. My mom and Hazel were from the same neighborhood in N Ireland and Friendships between “back home” and Canada made a special connection between us. I loved taking Reddie for walks and learned some “Swiss” commands from Mr. Brunner and also how to count to 10. The girls were born and were so very special to us all. It has been wonderful staying “in touch” through social media. Nothing but fond memories of the Brunner family. Rest in peace, Mr Brunner. Love to you all. Julie Rodney Chessman.
