It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Julia Mary Panyan on Saturday March 7th, 2026 at St. Michael’s Hospital after a courageous battle with ovarian cancer.
Julia will be remembered as a kind, generous, and thoughtful woman who always put her family before herself. She was deeply loved by all who had the privilege of knowing her and will be greatly missed.
Julia worked for Corporate Expense – BMO Financial Group, where she was respected and appreciated by her colleagues.
Beloved daughter of Edward and Josephine Panyan. Dear sister of Edward(Stephanie), and David. Cherished niece of Dani, Sonja(Miro), Vera, and Nancy.
