It is with deep sadness that the family of Compton Singh announces his passing peacefully at home on July 4, 2025 in his 89th year.
Compton was the devoted husband of Edna (predeceased), and ever-present loving father to his 4 children – Ena Simonsen (Eli– predeceased), Marion (Dan) Alderman, Lance (Ruth), and Gilbert (Jan), and lovingly remembered by his grandchildren Shawn, Brandon, Chad, Nikki, Matthew, Sophie, Tegan, & Brittany, and great-grandchildren Logan, Macy, Makai, and Sabrina. Compton is also survived by his brother Stanley in England.
Compton loved life. He loved his Creator, his Family, and is well- remembered in the County for his love of teaching. A retired PECI teacher, Compton enjoyed fond memories of his fellow colleagues and students alike. His love of teaching also expanded to Bible education in the community as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, while he treasured a closeness with his spiritual family over the years, both locally and internationally.
We are so appreciative of the recent care and assistance Compton received from the County’s Healthcare and Emergency teams, and we are forever grateful for the unending love and support of the Picton Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
A memorial of Compton’s life will take place on Saturday, August 2, at 2pm at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses, 19 Pitt Street, Picton. In lieu of flowers, online donations can be made to JW.org with heartfelt appreciation.
