She held a very special place in her heart for her grandchildren Keeva Rose, Kaeden, Avikah and Caspian.
Born and raised in North Bay, she was predeceased by her parents Joseph Gilles & Rose Tackney (nee Corbett), and her sister Gail Walsh (Gerry). She will be lovingly remembered by her sister Judith Anne Krimsky (William) of Willis Texas, and her nieces and nephews Kimberly, Tamara, Fr. Timothy, Shayna, David, and Michael.
