Passed peacefully with her family by her side at Juravinski Hospital on Tuesday, April 12th 2022 after a short battle with cancer. Loving wife of 46 years to Gary Gaynik; caring mother of Denice, Stan (Louise), Mark (Terri Ann) and Carrie; proud Nana of Michelle, Brooke, Austin, Chanelle, Tyra, Rachel, Ruth, the late Beatrice, Calvin, Isaac, Grace, Cohen and Holly; Great-Nana of Brielle, Brinley and soon to be born Charlotte; and beloved Auntie Pat to Michael (Mary-Lou), Jennifer (Brian), Chloé, Violet, Luke and Everett.
