Police have identified a motorcycle driver who was killed in a crash Sunday, just west of Stratford.
Lawrence Shepherd, 64, of Middlesex Centre died in the collision involving a sport utility vehicle.
It happened on Perth Line 20 at Perth Road 164 in the Municipality of West Perth.
Shepherd was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police say a third vehicle was indirectly involved, and also sustained damage.
They say the motorcycle was travelling south on Perth Road 164 when it was struck by a westbound vehicle on Perth Line 20.
Shepherd spent more than 20 years in the Canadian military and was awarded a special UN medal for his service with peacekeepers in Cyprus.
His image was chosen for a portrait to commemorate the closing of CFB London.
Shepherd's family hope that drivers will be cautious whenever they are on the roads.
I want everybody to be mindful and to be safe on the road. And not to be distracted. And pay attention when you're behind the wheel," said Tara Shepherd, Larry's daughter.
