Thomas Bernard Moulsdale

Tom Moulsdale, 79, has officially played his final round. He peacefully wrapped up a wonderful life on November 8, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of hard work, bad golf swings, an endless passion for soccer, and an abundance of love.

Tom’s story began in England, where he grew up as an accomplished football (soccer) player throughout his childhood. Tom and his wife Valerie made an emotional & difficult decision to move their family across the pond to Canada in search of a better life for their children. There, he built a successful career keeping things moving as a Warehouse Manager for both Nabisco Brands and the Ministry of Transportation. More importantly, he passed his absolute love for the beautiful game down to an entire generation, dedicating 28 incredible years to coaching youth soccer.

But if you asked Tom, a second act really began at retirement. He traded the soccer pitch for the fairway, spending his golden years volunteering and playing most of his golf at Mayfield Golf Club. While his scorecard might have had a few large numbers, his love for the game and the camaraderie was obvious to anyone who played a round with him. When he wasn't on the links, Tom enjoyed his passion for the Arts, working at The Rose Theatre in Brampton and thoroughly enjoying the local community.

Above all his achievements, Tom’s greatest joy was his family. He was married for 59 truly wonderful years to his lovely wife, Valerie, proving that true love (and incredible patience) really does exist. He is survived and deeply missed by his children, Ray (Melanie) and Barry, along with his six wonderful grandsons who brought immense pride and joy to his life.

Tom lived life with a warm heart and a quick smile. His unbridled British sense of humour, positive outlook, and genuine kindness, he showed towards anyone & everyone who met Tom, will be missed by all who knew him. He leaves behind a family who will forever cherish his memory every time they hear a Beatles song, watch a Liverpool match, or hit a golf ball straight into the rough.
