Michael Joseph Gillard was a loving husband to Jo-Ann for over 50 years. Son of Madeline and Harold Gillard, he was the youngest of siblings Dorothy, George, Paul and Patricia.
He was fortunate to have many nieces and nephews. He was well-liked by all close friends as well as those who were close work comrades.
His birthday was July 1 and he always told everyone that they had the day off because of his birthday.
Kind and thoughtful, one of his greatest treat was joining Jo-Ann's girlfriends for lunch.
Michael will be truly missed by all who knew him.
A reception for Michael will be held Thursday, July 14, 2022 from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM at Kane-Jerrett Funeral Homes, 8088 Yonge Street, Thornhill, ON L4J1W3.
