Her­bert Ma­g­a­l­hães It is with deep sad­ness that we an­nounce the pass­ing of Her­bert “Kipps” Ma­g­a­l­hães, 92, on Jan­u­ary 28, 2024. Kipps was born De­cem­ber 8, 1931 in Princes Town, Trinidad, to the late Joaquim and Mil­dred (née Bap­tiste) Ma­g­a­l­hães. He em­i­grat­ed to Cana­da in 1956 and joined the Roy­al Cana­di­an Air Force. It had been his dream as a child to fly planes. His ser­vice in­clud­ed mem­ber­ship to the 425 All- Weath­er Fight­er Squadron and the 414 Elec­tron­ic War­fare Squadron. His last years in the Force were spent with the Air Force Air Cadets, train­ing the next gen­er­a­tion of pi­lots. Kipps’s re­tire­ment in 1988 per­mit­ted him to spend time on his sec­ond pas­sion, golf. Left to cher­ish his mem­o­ry are his wife of 62 years, Flo­rence; daugh­ter Mona Ma­g­a­l­hães and her hus­band René Fil­ion; grand-daugh­ter Maïa Ma­g­a­l­hães-Fil­ion; sis­ters Ri­ta Stan­ley and Maria Has­matali, and many nieces and nephews. He is pre­de­ceased by broth­ers Joachim, Fran­cis, Tony, Leo and Jose Ma­g­a­l­hães, and sis­ter Mavis Smith.
