It is with profound sadness that I share this news. My dear husband Don passed away this morning in the Mackenzie Hospital Comfort Care Center. After making a remarkable recovery from his cardiac arrest in March 2018 he returned home in late June. We enjoyed every day as a gift from God and celebrated a wonderful Christmas in 2019. In early January Don became easily tired and was having increasing difficulty walking. He was hospitalized after a controlled fall on January 9, and was unable to return home because of weakness and other factors. He was transferred to the Mackenzie Comfort Care Centre in early February and received the most compassionate care possible. He went to sleep last night and didn't wake up this morning...he had no pain and no suffering, just peace. I am grateful that I have not been alone through Don's final months. Our families have been incredibly supportive and loving, and our friends have been angels of mercy. Thank you all, my strength comes from your love.
Visitation will be held at the Kane-Jerrett Funeral Home, 8088 Yonge St, Thornhill on Wednesday, March 4, 2020 from 4pm - 8pm. Funeral service will be held in the chapel at 11:30am on Thursday, March 5, 2020.
Private cremation to follow.
