ASCH, David Ross
April 24, 1929 - February 16, 2015
Peacefully at home, surrounded by love and the tender care of his beloved wife and family. Loving husband of Trudy (Gold). Cherished father and father-in-law of Joanie, Jeff and Deva, Tony, Ruthie and Peter (Kahn). Grandfather of Spencer, Jason and Shelby Asch-Jones; Dahlia and Owen Kahn.

Dear brother and brother-in-law of Bob and Rosie, Barbara the late Richard Asch, and predeceased by Jean, Henny, and Julia. Brother-in-law of Lois and Stanley Tucker. Dave was a positive, vital and talented man, always on the go and in search of a beautiful scene or subject to capture for his renowned photography portfolio. He was a generous and active community man, a fine skier, sailor, scuba diver, and an avid tennis player. He was quick with a joke, knew how to play fair and work hard. He cherished the company of his family and wide circle of friends and took great pride in his many accomplishments. He was a real traveler who reveled in the world's beauty, never overlooking the magic in his own backyard. The family thanks especially the remarkable Carole Beluse of Nova for her deep compassion and skillful kindness. Funeral service from Paperman & Sons, 3888 Jean-Talon St. W., on Wednesday, February 18 at 1:00 p.m. Shiva at his home.
