Gary Ward Obituary

We bid farewell to Gary Ward (Toronto, Ontario), whose journey of life gracefully concluded on February 4, 2026 at the age of 89. Gary touched countless lives with warmth and kindness, leaving behind cherished memories that will forever echo in hearts. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Gary Ward to pay them a last tribute.

As Gary departs from this earthly realm, his essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Gary may no longer walk beside us, his spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Gary leaves behind.

He was loved and cherished by many people including: his wife Janet; his children, Karen, Doug and Chris; his grandchildren, Emma, Callum and Ethan; and his children-in-law, Diana and Andre.

In lieu of flowers, the family invites donations to the Bloor West Food Bank or a charity that holds personal meaning to you.
