DESJARDINS, Peter - 1920 – 2013 WWII Veteran – L/Col. (Ret.) Passed away peacefully on Saturday, April 27 at KGH at the age of 93. Predeceased by his beloved wife of 52 years, Winifred (Winnie). Dear father of Geri Kugelmass (Michael) and Mary Desjardins. Proud grandfather of Sara (Tim), Monica (Oren) and Leah.

After the war, he made the military his career for 30 years, followed by a shorter career with NATO.
