Gary WILSON Obituary
August 15, 1938 - February 26, 2017
Gary passed away peacefully with his cherished family at his side. He will be lovingly remembered by Marilyn, his wife of 61 years and their children Steven, Laura (Gord), and Patti. Their grandchildren, Jeremy, Melissa, Jacob (Lauren), Sergio, Tyson (Ivette) and great- grandchildren Ayden and Natalie adored their wise, kind and funny "Grumps" with all their hearts. His in-laws Linda, Jane, Terry, Kenny, cousins, nieces, nephews and many friends will miss him greatly. Gary was born and raised in Vancouver. He was proud of his Aboriginal heritage and lived with integrity. Gary was accepting, fun loving, generous and most of all devoted to his family and friends. The richness of his life will be celebrated at The Scandinavian Center, 6540 Thomas St., Burnaby on Sunday, April 2 from 1:00-3:30 p.m.
