Lloyd Kubis

October 1, 1938  -  January 2, 2022

 

It is with heavy hearts that the family of Lloyd Kubis announce his sudden passing on January 2, 2022, at the NHS-St. Catharines Hospital. Lloyd, born October 1, 1938, leaves behind his loving wife of 29 years, Suzanne, cherished children Robert and Wendy (Michael), loving grandchildren Melissa (Derek), Kayleigh, Robbie, great-grandson Nathan, and sister Betty (Don) Campbell. Lloyd was predeceased by his brothers John and Steve.

At an early age, Lloyd developed a love for amateur radio that became a lifelong passion, communicating around the world under his various call signs: VE3 ERQ and VE3 NUU-B in Canada, 9V1ZI in Singapore, and VK3 BGW in Australia. His adventurous spirit saw him at the helm of sailboats in Canada, a sea-going trawler in Singapore, and eventually power catamarans in Australia.

Lloyd graduated from the University of Windsor with an Honours B.A.Sc., joined Motorola, and earned his Professional Engineer license.

At Motorola, Lloyd was instrumental in progressing many technologies used in our daily lives such as cellular phones, pagers, and commercialized satellites. His lifelong career with the company took him all over the world establishing operations in Australia, developing major communication systems in Canada, managing government relations, and was promoted to MCEI Vice-President and Regional Director Government Relations in the Asian Pacific, relocating to Singapore.


In keeping with Lloyd's wishes, funeral arrangements have been entrusted with GEORGE DARTE FUNERAL HOME and cremation has taken place. A memorial will take place at a later date. Please consider making a donation to the Heart & Stroke Foundation in Lloyd's honour.
