Trevor Tew
November 19, 1941 – August 28, 2025
In loving memory of Trevor Tew who passed away from a very aggressive form of lung cancer on August 28th, 2025.
Trevor was born in Redhill Surrey, UK on November 19th, 1941, and came to Canada with his parents when he was 3 years old.
Trevor is survived by his wife of 50 years Ann, his sister Sally and brother-in-law Allan, several nieces and a nephew. He was predeceased by his parents Jim and Irene Tew and a sister Sandra Adams.
Trevor spent some years working for Coca Cola and many years in Construction. He had a keen interest in rock collecting and a few artifacts and fossils as well. He had an interest in animals and he and Ann ran Boarding Kennels for several years.
His proudest accomplishment in life (with the help of others) was the establishment of an animal rescue which came to be named Second Chance.
Trevor and Ann believed that Dryden and area needed an animal rescue so much that they bought land & donated it to Second Chance to put our building on! Countless hours of volunteer time were to follow and many lucky animals were to find their “furever” homes! Trevor was always so proud to show off the new arrivals to anyone who came to visit.
Cremation has taken place and at Trevor’s request no service will be held.
If friends so desire donations may be made to: Second Chance Pet Network, Box 343, Dryden, ON P8N 2Z1

“Those we love don’t go away
They walk beside us every day
Unseen, unheard, but always near Still loved, still missed and very dear”
