THOMAS W. HODGSON
In Loving Memory
We are sending our deepest condolences to Tom’s family and friends. Our hearts are heavy, we have lost such a valuable part of our Shakey’s family in September 2021. Tommy, Tom, Son, Brother, Family, Friend. You went by so many names and so many titles and lived up to all of them. You were special. You were thoughtful, charismatic, supportive, patient, funny, smart and kind. You made friends everywhere you went regardless of the setting, you could always tell when someone was having a bad day and always made an effort to make it better even just a little bit. You always showed up for people, you loved your family, your friends, you loved music and dancing. You were a light and we’re all blessed to have been able to experience the person you were. You touched the lives of so many, we will never forget you. Thank you to all who showed their support and love for Tom’s family.
We Support Ukraine
During such a devastating time in Ukraine, our community in the Bloor West Village came together on Thursday March 24th 2022 to help raise awareness and show their support for so many who we know that are effected greatly. We are proud to announce the Shakey’s community have raised $5000 in support for Ukraine, but this is only the beginning.

This national charitable foundation, which co-ordinates, develops, organizes and delivers assistance projects generated by Canadians and directed to Ukraine, is aiming to raise $5 million to provide humanitarian assistance to those in need in Ukraine to address any further aggression by Russia. So far, Canada-Ukraine Foundation has collected more than $2.3 million.

How Shakey's came to be...
Shakey's was originally owned by Mike Walton who was known in the hockey world as Mike "Shakey" Walton Number 16. He played for the Toronto Maple leafs and won a Stanley Cup with them in 1967. As a second career he chose to open a bar in Bloor West Village called Shakey's Original Bar and Grill. Over the years it has passed through several different ownerships but has always kept the famous name Shakey's.
Rob Lundy...
Three generations ago Michael Lundy the grandfather of Rob bought the Stardust Hotel and lounge in 1949, and converted it into the famous Drake Hotel. He later bought the Silver Dollar and ran both successfully for many years. Rob bought Shakey's approximately 15 years ago and he continues the family tradition.
