<div itemprop="description">On behalf of the family, thank you for all your love and support during these difficult times. <br /> <br />After a courageous battle with multiple cancers, Deanna Gay passed peacefully at the Dorothy Ley Hospice on Sunday, March 9, 2014 at 11:00am. She will be lovingly missed by her three daughters Heidi, Dinah and Simone, her grandson Matthew and her son-in-law Greg. She also leaves behind her husband of 49 years, Geoff. Her two fur-babies, Cooper and Hunter will certainly miss her, as will her many furry grandchildren Annie, Oliver, Benz and Fritz. <br /> <br />Deanna Gay spent a significant part of the last 35 years volunteering her time with the Peel District School Board at various schools, typically attended by her children and grandson. We are certain that she touched many lives while contributing her time and will surely be missed by those that had the good fortune of having known her. <br /> <br />As many will know, she enjoyed many hobbies such as gardening and crocheting, sunny vacations in the Caribbean and spending time with her grandson Matthew. <br /> <br />Friends may call at THE SIMPLE ALTERNATIVE FUNERAL CENTRE, 1535 South Gateway Rd., Mississauga (Dixie Rd., 2 lights south of Eglinton Ave., 905-602-1580) for a Memorial Gathering on Saturday, March 15, 2014 from 2pm-3pm, with a Celebration of Deanna Gay's Life to begin at 3pm. Please join the family for refreshments following the service. <br /> <br />In lieu of flowers, the family requests a donation in Deanna Gay's memory be made to The Dorothy Ley Hospice, The Credit Valley Hospital Foundation or Breast Cancer Society of Canada. <br /> <br />You are invited to share in the creation of the memorial site by adding a condolence and any remembrances, photos, and video clips appropriate to the life of Deanna Gay. Simply click on the following link and start sharing your valued memories. <br /> <br />Please feel free to forward this notice to family and friends, for their information and contribution. <br /> <br /></div>
