It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Garrett James Whelan. Surrounded by his loved ones, Garrett passed away peacefully after a courageous battle with cancer on October 5, 2023, at Sunnybrook Health Center in his 43rd year.
Beloved husband and best friend of Lindsey. Loving father of Connell. Dear son of Dechia and Jim (Angela). Devoted brother of Justin (Erin), Brett (Allison), Abi (Steven), and Marshall (Judy). He will be lovingly remembered by his nieces & nephews Natalie, Liam, North & Ariat. He will be sadly missed by his in-laws, Glenn & Diana, as well as his brother-in-law Steven—cherished grandson of Ira & Pricilla & the late Basil & Lillian. Garrett will also be missed and remembered by his Aunts, Uncles, cousins, and friends.
Garrett was adventurous & loved life. He especially enjoyed spending time at home in Bracebridge and on the water in Muskoka with Lindsey and their faithful dog, Baron.
Fiercely protective of his loved ones and always willing to lend a hand or a compassionate ear to people he encountered, Garrett was adored and respected by more people than could be counted. He was the type of man who always made such a difference in the lives of those around him and put others first.
Garrett enjoyed visiting Prince Edward Island to spend time with his extended family. His love for gardening was reflected in his ability to nurture and grow beauty from the simplest of spaces. Garrett was a strong and passionate handyman, always at work around his home in Bracebridge or his parent’s farm in Troy. Sports were his escape and his passion. Whether it was cheering for his favorite hockey team or bonding with friends over a game of golf, he always enjoyed the camaraderie.
The family would like to thank Garrett’s medical team, led by Dr. James Perry, and the medical staff at Sunnybrook Health Center for their kind and compassionate care.
In honor of Garrett’s wishes, cremation has taken place—a celebration of life to be held at a later date.
Memorial donations may be made to Gord Downie Fund for Brain Cancer Research through Sunnybrook Health Center.
Garrett Whelan, you will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Though you may no longer be with us in person, your spirit lives on in the memories we hold dear. May we find solace in knowing that your legacy will forever bloom in the gardens you tended, the homes you built, and the hearts you touched.
