\u00c0 la douce m\u00e9moire de Tom Hughes Sr.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

C'est avec une grande tristesse que nous annon\u00e7ons le d\u00e9c\u00e8s de Tom Hughes Sr., le fondateur d'EarthFresh (anciennement connu sous le nom de Mackay and Hughes). La passion de Tom pour l'industrie des fruits et l\u00e9gumes a d\u00e9but\u00e9 en 1963 lorsque lui et son partenaire commercial, Dave MacKay, ont \u00e9tabli un bureau de courtage de pommes de terre au Ontario Food Terminal. Ils ont distribu\u00e9 des pommes de terre exp\u00e9di\u00e9es principalement par train depuis l'\u00cele-du-Prince-\u00c9douard, jetant ainsi les bases de ce qui allait devenir une entreprise florissante.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

En peu de temps, Mackay and Hughes a ouvert son propre entrep\u00f4t \u00e0 Etobicoke, en Ontario. Dot\u00e9e d'une voie ferr\u00e9e d\u00e9di\u00e9e, d'une flotte de v\u00e9hicules d'entreprise et de sa propre cha\u00eene de reconditionnement, l'entreprise a rapidement connu du succ\u00e8s en fournissant des services suppl\u00e9mentaires qui la distinguent. Au milieu des ann\u00e9es 1980, lorsque Tom a pris sa retraite, Mackay and Hughes \u00e9tait devenu l'un des plus grands distributeurs de pommes de terre au Canada, ce qui t\u00e9moigne de la vision, du travail acharn\u00e9 et du d\u00e9vouement de Tom.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Au-del\u00e0 de ses r\u00e9alisations professionnelles, Tom \u00e9tait un homme d\u00e9vou\u00e9 \u00e0 sa famille. Il ch\u00e9rissait sa femme Catherine, ses trois fils : Tom (Susie), Jeff (Mafie) et Greg (Amanda), ses deux filles : Mary (Peter) et Sheila, ses 11 petits-enfants : Whitney, Billy-Jean, Jessica (Jordan), Tommy, Hayden, Lydia, Julia, James, Jasper, Willow et Barrett, et ses trois arri\u00e8re-petits-enfants : Jack, Declan et Madelyn. Son amour pour la famille \u00e9tait \u00e9vident dans tout ce qu'il faisait, et sa chaleur s'\u00e9tendait \u00e0 ceux qui l'entouraient.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

M\u00eame apr\u00e8s sa retraite, en 1986, Tom est rest\u00e9 passionn\u00e9 par l\u2019industrie des fruits et l\u00e9gumes. Il \u00e9tait bien connu et profond\u00e9ment respect\u00e9 par ses coll\u00e8gues, ses clients et ses amis. Sa pr\u00e9sence chez EarthFresh et Gambles \u00e9tait toujours la bienvenue. Que vous travailliez dans l\u2019entreprise depuis des ann\u00e9es ou que vous veniez de la rejoindre, Tom s\u2019assurait de vous accueillir avec gentillesse, int\u00e9r\u00eat sinc\u00e8re et une chaleureuse poign\u00e9e de main.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Tom Hughes Sr. laisse derri\u00e8re lui un h\u00e9ritage incroyable, non seulement en affaires, mais aussi dans les innombrables vies qu'il a touch\u00e9es. Son d\u00e9vouement, sa g\u00e9n\u00e9rosit\u00e9 et son esprit in\u00e9branlable resteront toujours dans nos m\u00e9moires.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Repose en paix, Tom.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Tu nous manqueras mais tu ne seras jamais oubli\u00e9.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
