Colin Filson served as the Wainfleet Police Chief from 1960 to 1971 when the Niagara Regional Police Service was formed.
He was recently honoured at the Northland Pointe long-term care home for his years of service.
Filson died on Saturday, a week before his 91st birthday.
Mayor Kevin Gibson says he will be missed.
