MUNRO, Russell “Keith”
1937-2025
TRADE COMMISSIONER RETIRED
Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada
Surrounded by family, Keith passed away on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, at 88 years old.
He was predeceased by his beloved wife Beverley Jean (Weir); his grandson, Matthew Munro; his parents Russell D. Munro and Rebecca Pearl Chamney, and his sisters, “Goldie” Lynn Watson, Dorothie Crabtree, Margaret Manzon and “Mickey” Gracie. He is survived by his son Danny Munro, David (Margaret) Munro and his grandchildren Mark and Darcy Munro.
Lovingly remembered by his partner Dorothy Stevens and her family, Bill (Marsha), Barry (Theresa), Brent (Christina) and his bonus grandchildren, Lindsay, Connor, Rachel, Ali and Carter.
Keith worked for the government, he was a pilot, he travelled, he golfed, he did incredible woodwork, he became a Mason, he cooked amazing food, and he had the biggest heart. He was a joker, he loved clowning around so much, and helping people, that he became a Shriner. He loved cars, his cats, feeding the birds and Sunday drives with Dorothy.
A special thank you to Dr. Walker and the staff at Carleton Place District Memorial Hospital.
In memoriam, a donation to Carleton Place Hospital Foundation would be appreciated. A graveside service will be held on Thursday, November 6th 2025 at 1 p.m. at Hopetown Cemetery in Hopetown.
