It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Gaston. He was born Aug 19, 1981 and died May 31, 2023, at age 41. He grew up in Cheticamp, Nova Scotia, and had been living in Vancouver since 2016.
Gaston was passionate about many things. He loved music, recorded a CD, and enjoyed U2 and Keith Urban. He quoted Seinfeld often. He touched the lives of many children in his work at camps. He made efforts to stay connected with family and friends far and near.
Through his music and writing of books, poetry and quotes, he expressed the challenges of living with bipolar disorder, and he helped others living with similar challenges.
