I am sorry to hear of the passing of Dr. Tim Purves, and am very sorry for the family of Dr. Purves: Patti, their children, and grand-children.

Dr. Purves was my dentist from when I moved to Toronto around 1980, to when he retired.  He was a wonderful dentist!  He was always interested in his patients, and their well-being.  He shared many stories of his travels to Arizona, and a Greece-themed party at the cottage.  Clearly the family had fun together!

In honour of Dr. Purves I will make a donation to Bridgepoint Health.

My sincerest condolences to Patti, and the other family members.

Thoughts from the Byers family for your loss. Dr Purves was a great dentist for us, made the kids feel welcome, and we always looked forward to catching up on news from the Purves',  I've never looked forward to seeing the dentist since! He will be missed.  


I was truly sad to hear of the passing of Tim. My deepest condolences to Patti and the family. Sorry, I was not able to give my condolences in person. Although, our paths did not cross a lot after graduating from U of T.,the times we did spend together we're always enjoyable. Tim, as always was genuinely interested in what his friends were doing and in their health and welfare. The world has truly lost a magnificent person .I will always remember good thoughts and good memories of time spent with a wonderful friend. Gone too soon.

Dr. Purves was my dentist for over 30 years and he took care of my daughters as well until his retirement.  He was a warm and caring man and the tribute to him sums up what I will remember about him. His positivity, stories about his travels, (as well as his excellent travel tips), his love of his cottage and his cars, as well as his appreciation of Seinfeld, always made our visits pleasurable.  But beyond this, his love of his wife, family and grandchildren was always evident.  What a wonderful man... He will be forever in our hearts and memories.

Patti and family : Our thoughts are with you as you navigate this very difficult time 
Brian and I were in Dr Tim's care since the early 1970's until he had to leave his practice. Our two boys were also in his care until they left home for university. As well as being our dentist we also thought of him as a friend. We  talked about  our mutual interests - golf, skiing, Atlantic shellfish, traveling and most of all our children and grandchildren. Although we never met Laura and Glenn we felt we knew them as he talked about them, as well as Patti so much over the years. We always traded stories about our grandchildren and how they added so much joy to our lives. He will be missed 

Dear Patti and Family: I am so very sorry to hear of Tim's passing.  I will always remember fondly those early years as neighbours in Agincourt...and the many good times we shared together.The years go by quickly ...opportunities to keep in touch with each other has  not always been possible, but the great memories of times and fun shared  with you and Tim are never forgotten. My deepest condolences ... .  Fraser De La Plante 

Dear Patti, Laura and Glenn,
We are so very sorry to hear of Tim's passing.  We have many happy memories of Tim through the years we shared in the same neighbourhood.  Please know that we are thinking of you all at this time.

Bill & Sue

We both knew Tim professionally, but he became a friend. We are so sorry to learn of his passing and offer Patti and their family deepest sympathy. 

Mrs Purves, Laura and Glenn,

I was very sad to hear of Tim's passing.  I have very fond memories of spending time with Glenn and your family in your home and at the cottage. I had a great deal of respect for Mr Purves (even at 42 years of age it is hard to break the habits of referring to him that way) and I know he will be missed. 

All the best to you from my current home in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Best of Regards,

Warren Levy


Tim was somewhat of an idol to me at York Mills Collegiate and along with Jim before him, was our family dentist for some time until we moved---our sincerest condolences---a good guy-- gone but not forgotten easily.

The other York Mills Purves Family


  Our kind sympathy to all family for your loss of Tim. We will keep precious 

  memories of him always, Nellie and Graham.

My wife Darlene and I were patients of Dr. Purves for over 25 years and it was always a pleasure to see him.  We will never forget his genuine kindness and warmth and most of all his smile. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family. He will be greatly missed.
 

Dr. Purves was our dentist for over 20 years. He took great care of our teeth; also, his friendly nature and sunny optimism made going to the dentist something to be looked forward to rather than avoided. We will miss him and our thoughts are with his loved ones at this time.

Patti, Laura and Glen,
I was deeply saddened to receive the news of Tim’s passing. 
Tim had been a great friend for many years, starting with our high school days, football and track and field at York Mills Collegiate.
I will always remember our trip to New York in his Volkswagen beatle in the spring of our grade 13 year. It was a great adventure.
He was a true gentleman and a fun and caring host for the many times we were together at your cottage. 
Sadly Tim and I lost contact over the past 17 years. 
Please except my sincerest condolences, I will treasure my memories of my years of knowing Tim. He will be missed by so many friends, he made the world a better place.
Jim

Tim was not only a wonderful friend and family man.  He was the best boss ever. Tim always had time to talk and to listen to each and every person that came into his office. There was never a day that I felt like I was going in to “work”. I feel very blessed to have been a part of his practice for 27 years, and I will miss my friend every day. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. 

Dear Patti, Laura and Glen,

It is with profound sadness that we offer our heartfelt sympathy to you and your family. We remember so well the wonderful years we spent together as founding parents of HTS. 

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, 
Diane and Bruce Wells 

Our entire family is saddened to read of Tim’s passing. Patti, we send you and your entire family our condolences.
