CURRIE, ICILDA FANCETTA
With deep sadness, we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend, Icilda Fancetta Currie (nee LEWARS), on Mother’s Day, May 10, 2026, just shy of her 99th year. Born on May 16, 1927, in Bunkers Hill, Jamaica, Icilda later made Toronto, Canada her home after immigrating in 1986.

Icilda lived a life grounded in faith, family, strength, and love. A devoted Christian, she proudly referred to herself as a child of God and carried her faith with grace throughout her life. She was known for her straightforward nature, you never had to wonder what she was thinking, everything she did came from a place of deep love and care. She was cherished by all who knew her and was especially adored by her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who knew her as a loving and devoted matriarch.

Icilda is now reunited with her beloved husband, Noel; her sons, Carl and Michael; and her stepson, Aston.
She leaves behind her devoted children, Carol, Stephen (Maureen), Doreen, Patrick and bonus daughter Glenda; her cherished grandchildren, Damani, Tameka, Jody, Tanya, Tanice, Sherrida, CJ, Fabian, Briana, Stephanie, Monique and Mykel; and her 12 treasured great-grandchildren. She will also be deeply missed by her sister, nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends.

The family wishes to express their heartfelt gratitude to everyone who supported and cared for Icilda throughout her life. Her warmth, strength, humour, and unwavering love will remain forever in the hearts of those who knew her.
