Obituary of Dennis Gerald McClymont
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our brother Dennis Gerald McClymont at Chatham-Kent Health Alliance, Chatham
on Thursday August 28, 2025.
He was born in Chatham in 1945, son of the late Gerald and Louise (Whaling) McClymont. He is survived by his siblings, Sue Grant and her
husband Michael, Jim McClymont and his wife Irene, Bob McClymont and his wife Rose. Predeceased by his sister Diana O’Mara (Dennis).
He will also be missed by several nieces and nephews.
Dennis served in the Canadian Armed Forces from 1970 until 2000. During that time he served several tours overseas and spent many
years on Ellesmere Island at CFB Eureka in the Arctic. He retired at the base in Trenton, Ontario as a Master Warrant Officer.
Though Dennis never married, he held family and friends close to his heart. He was affectionately known as “Uncle Buck” by his nieces and
nephews, a nickname earned through his larger-than-life personality, warm sense of humour, and unforgettable antics that always left those
around him smiling.
An avid lover of the outdoors, Dennis found great joy in fishing, cooking and spending time at his beloved cottage on Eagle Lake. A life long
fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs and Blue Jays, Dennis rarely missed a game.
Dennis will be deeply missed by his extended family and many friends. In honour of his wishes cremation has taken place and the family will have a private gathering at a later date.
