In Loving Memory

Koch, Gunter Helge, passed away peacefully after a brief illness with his family at his side at Lakeridge Health Oshawa on Tuesday, February 11, 2025. Helge was the beloved husband of the late Theresa and a loving father to Harald (Michaela). He was also a supportive stepfather to Diana-Lynn (Bjarne), Kelly-Ann (Brian), Tina, Wendy, and Jennifer.

Helge was a proud grandfather to Charlotte, Gareth, Jordan, and Mark, and a supportive influence in the lives of Brianna and Dalton. He will be lovingly remembered by his extended family and friends.

Helge was a dedicated physician at Toronto General Hospital for many years. He had a passion for travel and loved the feeling of the wind in his hair while riding his motorcycle.

A special thank you to the staff in the CCU at Lakeridge Health Oshawa for their wonderful care and support. The family would also like to express their heartfelt gratitude to the in-home care team for their dedication, kindness, and professionalism. Your support made a difference in Helge’s life, and we truly appreciate everything you did.

A celebration of Helge’s life will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Lakeridge Health Oshawa CCU would be welcomed.
