Nora Mary Gaunt (née Ronayne)

Beloved wife to the late Norman Gaunt. Loving mother to Christina (Ronald) Ridley, John Gaunt, Michael (Genevieve) Gaunt, Edward Gaunt and Martin (Cindy) Gaunt. Cherished grandmother to Daniel (Candace) Morris, Shannon (Stephen) Bishop, Parker Gaunt, and Shelby Gaunt. Cherished great-grandmother to Mabel Morris, and twin Bishop baby girls. Dear sister to the late Breda O’Leary, the late Tom Ronayne, the late Gerald Ronayne, and the late Anne Lavis.

Will be missed by all friends and extended family including Mr. & Mrs. Alan Goodall, the Propat Family, the Laprade Family, the Greaves Family, the Cox Family, and the Chamberlain Family.

Mary will be remembered for her creative spirit and the joy she found in making life more beautiful for those around her. She built a successful career as a real estate agent, a profession she truly enjoyed and excelled in, taking great pride in helping families find places to call home while building lasting relationships within her community. Her creativity extended beyond her career and into every aspect of her life. She had a passion for art and expressed her talents through painting, sewing, and creating thoughtful handmade cards that became treasured keepsakes for family and friends. Mary also loved to travel, embracing new places and experiences with curiosity and enthusiasm. Above all, she cherished the time she spent with all of her family, “the noisier the better”, and her beloved husband Norman.

Mary's family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to the compassionate staff at Arbour Trails and Wellington Hospice for the exceptional care, comfort, and dignity they provided during her final days.
