October 23, 1933 – August 20, 2024
Audrey passed away peacefully at Brampton Civic Hospital, in her 91st year, on Tuesday, August 20, 2024. Survived by Gerry, her loving husband for 69 years. Together, they raised 7 children in Bolton – Brian, Marie, Gerry Jr. (deceased), Tobi (Peter), Shelley, Michael, and Paula (Phil). Beloved Grandmom to 9 grandchildren: Lyndsay, Mackenzie (Brittany), Chloe (Derek), Garret, Celina, Anthony, Mitchell, Hayley (Sam), and Kaitlin (Marcus). Audrey and Gerry are also blessed with 3 great-grandsons: Dawson, Wesley and Angus. Audrey was born and raised in Curling, Corner Brook, NL, with her parents, May and Arthur Hunt, along with her siblings: Utley, Betty, Jean, Annie, Arthur, Eldon, and Edward. Audrey moved to Toronto where she married Gerry then moved to Bolton when their family grew. She was a wonderful aunt/sister/Grandmom/cousin to the family’s many relatives spread across Canada and the United States. Audrey was known for her kindness, helpfulness, great sense of humour, patience, love and bread making that attracted all who could sniff the aroma of fresh-baked bread from the street. She entertained, fed, housed, played cards with many relatives and friends in their home – on top of her own family of 9! Audrey also was involved in her church, volunteered in nursing homes & in a not-for-profit charity store – to name a few of her community activities. She was a great outdoorsy person with her children, introducing them to, and participating in: skating, skiing, sledding, hiking, biking and corralling Dainty, the pony, when she escaped from the yard. Audrey will also be missed by her many nieces and nephews and their children. Many fond times were spent with them in summer vacations to NL, BC, Alberta and the US, and of course, in the Tobin backyard with the pool and baseball diamond/tobogganing hill down the street. When Gerry had to travel to distant work locations, he and Audrey had agreed that they say “so long” instead of “goodbye”. Do not grieve, we will celebrate her life instead. Audrey had a memorable and beautiful life. The family would like to thank the nurses, doctors and PSWs at Brampton Civic Hospital who gave her excellent care in her remaining weeks and to the neighbours for their acts of kindness while Dad and family focused on Mom’s care.
