Passed away unexpectedly at Markham-Stouffville Hospital on Saturday February 16, 2025 at the age of 84 years.  Predeceased by his parents, Walter and Beatrice. Loved and missed by his spouse of 35 years, Marjorie “Marge” Sanger, and his five children, Allen, Robert (Katherine), Yvonne, Mathias (Bonnie), and Thomas. Loved and missed by his grandchildren; Randy, Devon, James, Jessica, Bailey, Hannah and Bazzil.

Loved and missed by Marge’s children, Sherri (Trent) and Jackie, and their children, Ryan, Adam, Brittany, Matthew, Bradley, John, Jennifer, Amanda, Rebecca and Darryl.  


Gary came from a big family and always wanted a big family. His greatest achievement was his five children. At a young age he studied to be a boiler maker and became an exceptional boiler technician. His knowledge of machines led him to become a true-life MacGyver. He could fix anything with a screwdriver and a glass of beer. He enjoyed hanging with his children, playing golf and in the past few years, putting puzzles together.  He will be missed greatly by his family and all that knew him. 


Relatives and friends are invited to call at Low & Low Funeral Home, 23 Main Street South on Sunday February 23, 2025 from 1:00 – 4:00 PM.  A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at Sacred Heart Parish, 70 Toronto St N, Uxbridge on Monday February 24, 2025 at 11:00 AM.  Interment Uxbridge Cemetery.  Reception to follow.  As expressions of sympathy, donations to the Canadian Lung Association  would be appreciated by the family.  Friends are invited to send condolences by visiting www.lowandlow.ca
