Gary Allen Clarke passed peacefully at home on July 2, 2021 holding the hand of the love of his life. He is survived by his wife of 40 years, Barbara, his children Craig (Louise), Larry, Tamara (Mike), Christine (Andrew), his grandchildren Justine, Joseph, Brandon, Grace, Marcus, Maeve, Rose, Rowan, Odilon, and Connor. He is also survived by his brother Wayne (Linda) and many nieces and nephews.
Gary is pre-deceased by his parents Laurence and Marjorie Clarke, and his siblings Eric (Dorothy), and Carole (Ken).
Gary was a caring husband, father, brother and grandfather. After retiring from his many fond years as a lumber salesman, he enjoyed spending time telling ghost stories to his grandchildren at the cottage, lots of laughs with Barbara and watching the Leafs try for the Cup. He was a man who could always be relied on for sound advice and someone who could fix just about anything. He will be dearly missed.
The family would like to express sincere thanks to the palliative care team at SRT MedStaff and Dr. Jack Sandler for their compassionate care and support.
The family asks you to consider a donation in Gary’s memory to the Canadian Liver Foundation. A private service will be held by the family at a later date.
Condolences can be left at the Kane-Jerrett website.
