Obituary of Gerry Lawlor
We are greatly saddened to announce that Gerry passed at Grand River Hospital, Kitchener on Tuesday, October 17, 2017 at the age of 79 years. Beloved wife of the late Joseph Raymond Lawlor, Orangeville. Born in Saint John, New Brunswick to parents Clyde MacDougall and Lilian Machum, she will be sadly missed by her son Paul (Valerie) Sibley. Loving grandmother to Ryan (Katey), Dana (David) Zegers and Kate (Kent) Neale and 7 great grandchildren: Abigail, Cameron, Leah, Natalie, Madelyn, Lily, and Landen. She will be missed by her brother John MacDougall (Margaret) of Westboro, MA and nieces Elizabeth, Susan, and Margaret. Predeceased by husband Frank Earl Sibley, son Neil Sibley, and daughter Robin Sibley.
Gerry grew up near Apohaqui, New Brunswick before entering Acadia University where she studied English. She later moved to Ontario where she completed her Bachelor of Arts degree at the University of Western Ontario. After several years living in western Canada while Earl was in the RCAF, she returned to Ontario and turned her love of English and reading into a career as a librarian, first at George H Locke Public Library in Toronto and later at the Caledon East Public Library where she retired in 1998. Gerry loved the ocean and enjoyed spending time each summer at « the cottage” in Mitchell Bay, Nova Scotia. Mom will always be remembered for her easy-going personality, red hair, fashion flare and love of cats.
A celebration of life will be held in the near future. Details will be made available on the funeral home website.
We appreciate the excellent care she received in ICU and the stroke ward at Grand River Hospital. Condolences for the family and donations to the Heart & Stroke Foundation or Grand River Hospital Foundation may be arranged by contacting the funeral home at www.erbgood.com or 519-745-8445.
