Verna Beverley Rowat

January 3, 2025

It is with a heavy heart we announce the passing of Verna Rowat. Late Friday night on January 3, 2025, with family by her side at Lakeridge Health Port Perry, we said goodbye. Verna will be greatly missed by her devoted husband, companion, and best friend of 62 years, Gerald. Loving son, Robson and wife Cindy, treasured grandchildren Sarah, Gerald, and great-grandchildren Zayden, Joel, and Maria. She is welcomed with open arms by her loving daughter Lea (November 2024).

Also left to mourn, Verna leaves behind her sister Bernice Arthur and many nieces and nephews she loved dearly. She was a woman who would do anything for her family, sharing her home and heart with everyone she loved.
