Passed peacefully at St. Joseph’s Hospital on Thursday, February 11, 2016 in his 88th year. Predeceased by his loving wife Mary Elizabeth “Betty” (nee Mulligan). Cherished father of Rev. Bill and his wife Cindy and John. Much loved grandfather of Jennifer and will be sadly missed by his companion Kathleen Flint. Arnice was predeceased by his parents William and Marjorie. Arnice was a long time resident of Dundas and a member and elder of Knox Presbyterian Church Dundas. Friends will be received by the family on Monday afternoon and evening from 2-4 & 7-9 p.m. at the Turner Family Funeral Home, 53 Main Street, Dundas. A Funeral Service for Arnie will be held on Tuesday, February 16th at KNOX PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, 23 Melville Street, Dundas at 11 a.m. Cremation has taken place and interment to follow at Grove Cemetery. If desired, donations to the The Arthritis Society or the Alzheimer’s Society of Canada would be appreciated by the family.
We had the good fortune to spend time with Arnice during several Bynum family Christmas dinners. A time when fellowship, goodwill, conversation and humour abounded. His warmth and compassion were qualities so self evident. We shall miss him, and send our deepest condolences to his loving family.
My condolences are your loss John and Bill

My prayers are with you all at this time. God Bless
Jim and Marlene send our deepest sympathies to Rev. Bill and his family, and John. Arnice was Jim’s boyhood friend and has remained our friend through all the years of our marriage since1957. He was a true friend in all ways. We will so miss his cheerful, upbeat, most pleasant manner. Only our age and the condition of the snowy roads today keeps us away from attending. We know you will have a lovely service for him. We remember you as little boys on New Year’s Eve when your parents had Jim’s parents and us over to see the New Year in. Love and deepest sympathy to you and his lovely granddaughter whom he often spoke of to us.
Bill and John, your Dad was always a welcome guest and friend at so many family events. Wherever we were living he would stop by for tea and chat. We will miss his love of life way that brought joy to us all. May God be with you two at this time. Love from Ann and Phil Watson (nee Hutchinson) Sisters Ruth and Sylvia send their condolences as well.
My sincere sympathy Bill to you and your family.Please know that the memories that bring a tear today, will in time, be the same memories that will bring a smile. You are all in my prayers.
