GOWER, James Peter – Born in Meaford, Ontario, to Dr. Elwood Gower, DDS, and Marjorie (Robbins), Jim passed away at home on November 8, 2024, surrounded by love after a long illness.

He is survived by his wife, Linda; his son, Ken; and stepsons, John (Kim) and Jamie (Melanie). He was an adored grandfather to Blaise, Carling, Piper, and Raine.
