Arthur Brunt Dalgarno

Nancy and family - we were so sorry to hear of Art's passing. He was always so full of life and always smiling. He will be missed by many. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My deepest condolences to Nancy and the family. Keep your memories of Art close and you have many fantastic memories of him. He always had a chuckle for friends and students. As a teacher, he was one of the exceptional ones being a mentor and educator in and out of the classroom. It's with deep sadness that I say to Art RIP.

To all the Dalgarnos, Glenn and I are so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Art was great fun on staff at the West. I think one of the most memorable situations was the little red car in the foyer of the school. An April Fools day prank that backfired on the students. Art always liked to get the last laugh.

Our sincerely condolences to Nancy and all of Art's Family. Many fond memories of Art first as my chemistry teacher then as a friend through church and as my son's chemistry teacher. My son always said Mr Dalgarno prepared him the best for university of any teacher. May your happy memories sustain you all through this difficult time. Allan and Debbie Elder

My sincerest condolences to the Dalgarno family especially Jeff. Your father was a respected member of the West High School faculty and was a fair and level minded man who never suffered fools...for any length of time. It was always a pleasure to not only be taught science by Mr D but to learn science from him. Again my sincerest condolences at the passing of a memorable person who left an indelible and positive mark in my formative years.

SO VERY SAD TO HEAR OF MR.D'S PASSING. MR.D WILL BE SADLY MISSED BY EVERYONE HE HAD CONTACT WITH. OUR FAMILY HAS VERY FOND MEMORIES OF MR.D AND WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. M.L.&R. TO HIM AND THE FAMILY

Sincere condolences to the Dalgarno family. Your Dad was an exceptional person and that is truly reflected in his children, who each carry so many of his wonderful traits. Hoping that your many wonderful memories help ease the loss of his presence.

Mrs D, Jen, Nancy J, Jeff, Andrew and families, please accept my heartfelt condolences. When I think of the Dalgarno family, I hear the laughter, see the kindness and feel the love. Mr D was all of these and more, he touched and enriched the lives around him. His impact will forever be with us. Rest in Peace Mr D. ❤️

To the whole Dalgarno family, our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Art was a very special man, loved by everyone he came in contact with. Will miss spending time with him. Art and Nancy were an amazing team. Thinking of all of you. Art will be watching over you all. Love you Mrs. D Sending big hugs xo

Jenn, Jessica, Sara, Erin and the Dalgarno family. We never met your dad Jenn, but clearly he was a man who impacted positively on so many. How wonderful to have all these incredible memories from those whose lives he touched!

To the Dalgarno family, so saddened to hear this news. He loved you all so much and loved life. Always teaching! He supported and embraced every activity. I was fortunate to learn from him, share 'The West' with him as well as Cobourg sports. Proud to know him! He will be missed. Sending sincere love and condolences.

My husband, David Mitchell, was fortunate to have Art as his high school chemistry teacher, and he credited him with igniting an interest in chemistry, which he pursued at university before his lifelong career as a research chemist. I hope Art knew what a strong mentor he was to his students.

To Nancy and family, I'm so saddened to hear of Mr. Dalgarno's passing. As a former chemistry student of his, I will always remember him as Mr. Dalgarno. He set the table for the periodic table. He made science exciting. And for that, I'll always be grateful.

Too many lovely and fun memories to enumerate as a fellow high school mate to Art, as a teaching colleague and as a close friend to Ralph and Carolyn. My sincere thoughts and wishes to you Nancy and your family at this very sad time. Susie

Dear Nancy and family, I’m so sorry to hear of Art’s passing. Please accept my sincere sympathy. I hope your fond memories will give you comfort in the days ahead. Elaine

Ohh sad.. Sending love and Blessing and condolences. His smile and laughter will be missed. My heart and thoughts to all the family..Love Kevin

Mr. Dalgarno was the best science teacher any student could have wished for. He inspired me to pursue a career in the sciences, and I will never forget his infectious enthusiasm and desire to see every student do well. I am very sad to hear that he has passed away, and send his family my deepest condolences.

I'm not sure if there any more accolades left to describe Art. He was such a genuine and sincere gentleman. Everyone just loved Art for being Art! He was a well loved educator and a friend to all. Definitely, he was one of a kind and a wonderful role model for all of his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. We're all going to miss him, his smile, and his sense of humour. Sincere condolences. Arthur Brunt Dalgarno November 5, 1939 - December 26, 2025 "Rest in Peace"

Nancy and family, sending our deepest condolences. I remember getting rides to the golf course with Art and Bev Howard after school. Art would tell me that Bev would shoot a 78. Half way up the 15th hole Bev walked off the course. I asked Art where he was going. Art said he was going home he had shot his 78. Two of my favourite teachers in high school.

Sending thoughts and prayers to the family.

Sending love and hugs to you Jen, Nancy and family ❤️. Your Dad will be missed by so many !! His legacy at CDCI West will live on !! ❤️ Rob and Deb Thomas

Nancy and family, so very sorry to hear this news. My deepest sympathy. Sending warm hugs and healing prayers. Always the fondest memories of Mr. Dalgarno from the West, and his wonderful smile and kindness.

As a summer student many years ago at Dalewood, I fondly remember the antics, friendly fun and giggles of Mr. Dalgarno and Mr. Howard, both on and off the course. Let’s hope Art and Bev have quickly reunited and already played a couple of rounds in Heaven. To the Dalgarno family, my deepest condolences. Rob Laronde.

Nancy, I can imagine that you are hearing a lot of stories these days that start " do you remember the time.... ?" Some will make you smile, and some will prompt a tear or two. Our family remembers the good times spent as students with Art as their teacher. We send condolences to all your family. Marian Davidson.

my condolences to Dalgarno family. I remember growing up in the neighbourhood and spending much time at the Dalgarno home, also having him as a teacher. Then the times when he came into town hall to purchase his garbage tags always a smile and cheerful man.

Nancy and family.....

Mr. Dalgarno was one of my favourite teachers! He was firm, fair and kind. Sending love to his family as they remember him.

My condolences to Jenn and the rest of the Dalgarno family for your loss. Will miss seeing him drive by the house with a big smile on his face.

Mr. Dalgarno was the absolute best chemistry teacher ever!! I'll never forget my time in his labs with the seasonal stickers for good work and the notorious Quizbang!! Rest in Peace.

My sons went to CDCI West and often brought home stories of the wonderful things Mr. Dalgarno was doing - like giving an outrageously large donation to some important school project. He was one of the outstanding teachers at that wonderful school, and many lives were touched in a positive way - including the many who benefited from his basketball coaching

My condolences for the Dalgarno family and friends. Mr. Dalgarno was my favorite teacher in all of my school education. He taught me chemistry so well that I tutored half of my class in college because I already knew everything in advance because Arthur taught his high school chemistry students so well. I enjoyed going out for lunch with him and me and a fellow classmate a couple times. I will always remember him as my best teacher.

To the entire Dalgarno family... We are so sorry to hear of Mr. Dalgarno's passing. He definitely was one of a kind! Someone like him will surely be missed by all who knew him. Ron and Lori Vout

My condolences to the family for the passing of such a wonderful man. Ted Trela

Nancy and family - So sorry to see the notice of Art's passing. What a great person and teacher he was. Loved him as a teacher and as a friend. He was excellent at both. I still remember his classroom with him prepping us for the Departmental Chemistry exams. There was always a bit of fun in his classes and around the school. I don't believe I ever heard anyone say anything negative. He will truly be missed by his family and all who have known him. God Bless and comfort you all as a family. Bev

My heartfelt sympathy to all you in your loss of Art . I had him for chemistry at the West .. great teacher .. encouraging and kind with a wonderful sense of humour. He will forever be a special part of the ‘ West ‘ .

Mr D, as he was known to many of us who had him as a teacher, was a very kind man.

Sincere condolences to all the Dalgarno family. RIP Mr D

I sincerely express my condolences to the whole family. I have known Art aka Mr. D. for a very long time. He was one of my favourite high school science teachers.

My deepest condolences to his wonderful family. I have great memories of times spent with Mr. D. He knew how to enjoy life and he shared his joy and wisdom with so many people. Whether it was at The West, on a golf course, at a sports venue or a social event, Mr. D’s unique laugh signaled his presence and brought a smile to everyone’s face. His laugh was even louder if he managed to pull a prank on someone. Mr. D was truly a gem.

So sorry to read this .What a wonderful ,dedicated teacher he was.I remember him fondly in my days at the West Collegiate and happy to know that my children got to know as well.Always a smile and friendly greeting when seeing him in following years.
