TACKLEY, Janet Mary Tackley, Obituary

Tackley JanetTACKLEY, Janet Mary  - (August 2, 1938 - December 25, 2015)

In loving memory of Janet Mary Tackley (nee Jennings) in her 78th year due to complications after a fall.

Marrying Stan in 1963 saw Janet’s life filled with love, humour and lots of good times.

Janet will be greatly missed by her 3 daughters: Jacquie Kelm (Kevin St. Onge), Cheryl Windolf (Peter Windolf) and Colleen Holstein (Rich Holstein) and will now will be with her beloved husband, Stanley John Tackley (1936-2004) in heaven.

Born in Toronto, Janet’s childhood was filled with antics and music mostly performed by her younger siblings: John Jennings (Toronto), Dorothy Cook (Claremont), Jim Jennings (Emsdale) and June Jennings (Ajax).

Janet and Stan proudly raised their 3 girls and moved to Oshawa in 1979 where they were foster parents for more than 25 years.

Retirement years were enjoyed at Pigeon Lake Campers’ Resort, near Buckhorn, where they spent many hours with their grandchildren: Kati, Jen, Alysha, Jacob, Monica, Austin, Noah and Nate.

Janet and Stan lived briefly in Port Hope before Stan’s passing; Janet then moved to Little Britain and lived with Jacquie and family, stayed briefly in West Shore (Port Perry) and ultimately resided in Faith Place, Oshawa. Janet will also be missed by her 5 great grandchildren.

In lieu of a service or celebration, Janet would like everyone to raise a glass in memory of her good life; donations will be thoughtfully received by the Lung Association of Ontario.

ROY, Gregory Roy, Obituary

Roy GregoryROY, Gregory  - June 8, 1958 - December 24, 2015

It is with heavy hearts that the family of Gregory Scott Roy has to announce his passing.

Please do not say he lost his battle with cancer, because he most certainly won.

He fought so incredibly hard, but was called to be with God and his family that have crossed over on December 24, 2015.

He passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his wife and children who loved him unconditionally.

He will be greatly missed by Tammy, Shanon, Caitlyn, his grandchildren, extended family and friends.

Those of you that knew “Beaver” knew that he was the most compassionate, caring, and funny man.

He could tell you whose kid played on what hockey team, what horse ran and won on which date, and all the best fishing spots on Lake Katchewanooka.

A huge thank you goes out to the team who helped care for him, this includes the staff at Centenary Oncology, especially his favourite nurses. Another special thank you to the green palliative care team in Durham, specifically nurse Leslie and Dr. Azi. We couldn’t have asked for better care in the comfort of his own home.

As per Greg’s wishes, we will not be holding a funeral, but having a celebration of life in June 2016 in honor of his birthday at the racetrack.

We take consolation in knowing that in his death, Greg was able to give the gift of life to others.

What a beautiful Christmas present he gave. For those so inclined, we encourage you to support organ donation, and take the necessary steps to ensure you can give this beautiful gift as well.
