Obituary of Hugh James Bromley
Passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his loving family on June 16, 2024 at the age of 49. Hugh was the adored husband of 21 years to Allison (nee Voogt). Cherished father to his three girls, Hayley (Alex), Audrey and Alyssa. Beloved son to his late parents, Hugh and Debra. Loving brother of Ryan (Mary). Dear brother-in-law to Peter (Joan) and John (Missy). Much loved son-in-law to John and MaryAnn Voogt. Hugh will also be fondly remembered and missed by his nieces, nephew, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.Hugh was the proud Owner and Operator of Bromley's Lawn & Landscaping, which celebrated its 25th anniversary this year. Hugh poured his heart and soul into his work, oftentimes working from sun up to sun down and loving every moment of it. His commitment to excellence and integrity earned him the respect and loyalty of countless customers. Hugh loved the outdoors and had a passion for hunting, and every fall he would eagerly join his childhood friends for their annual hunting trips, a tradition that brought him immense joy throughout his life.
You could not meet a nicer man than Hugh, and he will surely be remembered for his wonderful sense of humour, his little endearing quirks, and for always having a smile on his face. Hugh was also known for his unwavering selflessness and readiness to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. He would literally give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. Hugh's selflessness and tireless work ethic inspired everyone he met. To know him was to love him.

I’m so sorry your loss of Hugh. He will always be in your hearts
Hugh will always be remembered. He was a gentle soul and we will miss him dearly. Love you family.
My deepest sympathy to the whole family from a grateful customer.
I work at Cogeco where Hugh would take care of our grounds in the heat of summer and storms of winter. I don’t think we ever even knew each others names but each time I saw him he greeted me like a friend. Always with a beaming a smile. We would share a minute or two of conversation and then we would both go on with our tasks. Each time I would walk away and say to myself what a great guy. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Hugh was a kind soul like no other. He was so sweet to my parents before their passing, my dad was so incredibly fond of him. His kindness will forever have a place in my heart. Our deepest condolences to his amazing wife and his beautiful girls. We are heartbroken for your sadness. I hope the fact that Hugh was so well loved and respected by so many people near and far, brings you some comfort in this difficult time.
All our love, the Romero family.
I was a customer of Hugh’s when I lived in Niagara Falls on Pine Grove. When Hugh began to cut my lawn, it was a time when I had just lost my husband to cancer. The first time I arrived home after Hugh had been to my home, I found the lawn cut, trimmed and cleared exactly as my husband had done. It was such a warm feeling for me to see the lawn done to perfection! Hugh helped me adjust to this new way of life that I was in and I will never forget him. You lost a good man in Hugh. May your future without him, be comforted knowing that he was one of the best.
Ryan, Mary, Allison and family. The Bromley kids grew up across the street from us. Hugh and Ryan were just as sweet as their parents. We would have water fights with the neighbourhood kids and have so much fun. We will always remember those days.. Ryan, Dan and I are so very sorry for your loss. Please take comfort in all your memories and know we are thinking of you.
Allison and girls, Ryan, Heather, Kim, John and Betty: It is such a heartache to see someone suffer. Hugh was in his prime and I am so sorry for your loss.
Alison and family you have my deepest condolences on Hugh’s passing. I didn’t know Hugh very long but he always had a funny story. Whenever I watch oak island I will think of him.
