Gertrud "Gerry" Kuhn passed away at Freeport Hospital on August 3, 2024, in her 80th year. Gerry was born on the 18th of December in Schatz, Poland and shortly afterwards her family immigrated to Acton, Ontario. Although she spent the majority of her adult life in Scarborough, she spent her final 6 years in Waterloo to be closer to her family. She is survived by her nephew Markus (Jennifer), nieces Caroline (Scott) and Jennifer (Todd), sisters-in- law Edeltraud and Darlene, and many great-nephews and a great-niece. She was preceded in death by her father Eduard, mother Lydia and brothers Bernold, Hermann and Dietmar.
In Gerry's final thoughts, she shared her eagerness to reunite with her parents and brothers. While our hearts mourn the loss, we take comfort in knowing she is no longer suffering. Gerry's family would like to extend their gratitude to her longtime friends from Toronto, her new friends at Court at Laurelwood Retirement Residence, and the doctors, nurses, and staff at Freeport Hospital Palliative Care Unit for their gracious and compassionate care.
To honour her final wishes, there will be no funeral service, but a private family moment will take place at a later time. In keeping with her nature, those wishing to honour her life can make a donation in her name to Strong Start (Early Literacy Skills) or to the Toronto Cat Rescue.
