Peacefully, at Quinte Healthcare Belleville General, on Friday, April 26, 2024, with family by his side.

He will be deeply missed by his family and fondly remembered by his many nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends. Percy was born and raised in Hardwood Lake.  He worked in the logging industry for many years and later owned his own business Percy Behnke Logging.  He was an avid outdoorsman and loved to fish, hunt, snowmobile, and ATV.  His lapdog Dixie was a huge comfort for Percy in his later years and she will miss him greatly.
