Gemma Pamela Stanley-Thorne

3-Nov-1933 – 2-Sep-2024

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Gemma Pamela Stanley-Thorne, who departed this life on Monday, September 2, 2024, at her home, surrounded by the family she cherished. Born on November 3, 1933, in San Juan, Trinidad and Tobago, Gemma was a testament to love, strength, and grace.

She was the devoted mother of Michele Ann Thorne and Mari Angelique Mohammed (Ricardo), and is predeceased by her son, Michael Alan Thorne. Gemma leaves behind a legacy through her adored grandchildren, Alisha Chung (Jason), Michael Allan, and Mikaela, and her precious great-grandchildren, Khai, Jaylan, and Lyric. She is survived by her loving siblings Sydney (Lynette), Leslie, and Victor (Margaret), and dear sisters Jean and Joan (Jocelyn), as well as numerous cherished nieces and nephews. Gemma is also predeceased by siblings Edwin (Rita), Andrew (Nathalie), Jacqueline (Stuart), and Arthur.

Known for her unwavering strength, compassionate heart, and gentle spirit, Gemma dedicated herself to her family and friends. She loved welcoming others into her home with a warm smile and was celebrated for her cooking, baking, and sense of humor. Her love for conversation and hospitality will be deeply missed.

Family and friends are invited to honor Gemma’s life at her funeral service on Tuesday, September 10, 2024, at 1:00 PM at Morris Funeral Chapel Ltd., 4 Division Street, Bowmanville, ON L1C 2Z1. Visitation will be held from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM on the same day. Burial will follow at Bowmanville Cemetery, 1330 Haines St, Bowmanville, ON. A reception will be held after the burial at Morris Funeral Chapel Ltd.

The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the Lakeridge Health team for their exceptional care and support. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Gemma’s memory to the Alzheimer Society of Canada. Donate Here.

For those unable to attend in person, a livestream of the service will be available on the Morris Funeral Chapel Facebook page, beginning a few minutes before the service time.

May her soul rest in eternal peace.
