Gilbert; Evelyn Gourlay (née Wallace)
It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of the passing of our mother, “Nanny” Evelyn Gilbert. Though her light has faded, she will forever shine bright in our hearts.
Evelyn was a caring person with a warm heart who always put her loved ones first. A terrific homemaker and loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, she dealt with her recently diagnosed illness with a grace and dignity to which we can all aspire. We are sure Mom is at rest now, dancing to her favourite country music, playing euchre, and enjoying a tequila sunrise as she watches over us.
Evelyn passed away on Thursday, January 2, 2025 under the extraordinary and compassionate care of the staff at Hospice Quinte. We will forever be grateful to the amazing staff who cared for her, and for us, in her final days.
Evelyn is loved and missed by her surviving family: her long-time companion Don Ward; her sisters, Geraldine, and Margaret; sister-in-law, Kay; her children, Yvonne and Steve (wife Shawn), and son-in-law Leroy; her grandchildren, Chad (wife Jenn), Evan, Shanlon (husband Blake); and her great-grandchildren, Samson and Eleanor; and her friends the Richardsons: Paul and Linda, their daughters Leanne and Melissa, and their families.
She goes on to join her husband, Warren; daughter, Linda; her grandson, Adam; her parents, Mac and Gertrude; and her siblings, Beulah (husband Bill), Gordon, Earl (wife Irene), Vera (husband Roy), Hilda (husband George), and Howard (wife Mildred). We take solace knowing they will be there to greet her.
A service will be held on Tuesday, January 7th, at the Wartman Funeral Home in Napanee. Friends are invited to join us in remembering Evelyn from 11am-12pm, with a service at 12pm, and a reception to follow. Interment will be at Riverview Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations in Evelyn’s memory to the Hospice Quinte, Adam’s Hope or Junior Diabetes. Donations and condolences may be forwarded online through wartmanfuneralhomes.com
