(nee Toms)
Passed peacefully at home, in her 95 ^th year, with her devoted son, grandson, and Poochie by her side, reading their stories together, as they have done for the past many years.

A graduate of Queens University where she met her husband Donald, she was an avid reader, a lover of art and a deeply spiritual person.  Her hands were never idle, as she studied and worked at every form of painting, needle craft, sculpture or calligraphy.  In her lifetime, she was a stalwart member of her church and volunteer in her community.  Gwen gave freely of her time and energy to help others.

Above all, Gwen lived for her family. She was a strong, loving and dedicated wife to Don (d. 1993), mother of seven, mother-in-law, grandmother of 15 and great-grandmother of 4. Our touchstone is gone and we miss her terribly.

A service of remembrance will be held on Friday June 30, 2017 at the Kopriva Taylor Community Funeral Home, 64 Lakeshore Road West, Oakville at 11am followed by a reception.

In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Pegasus Community Project, Toronto http://www.pegasustoronto.ca/
