Julie (Mary) Gilby

September 28, 2019

It is with heavy hearts that we, the family of Julie (Mary) Gilby (formally of Orillia, Ontario), announce her passing on Sept. 28 2019 at the Lakeridge Hospital in Ajax Ont. Born Sept 11, 1945 in Dalhousie, New Brunswick, she moved to Ontario as a young girl, and there she stayed; she always said that she left a piece of her heart “down east”. Julie spent many years in Orillia, enjoying visits to Casino Rama and spending quiet time with her partner and beloved pets. Julie was known for her being blunt, and having a great sense of humor. She will be missed by all that knew and loved her. Julie was a loving mother to Treena, Michael (Brie), and Matthew; and the proudest Nanny to Kodi, Xander, Jesse and Avalyn. She was predeceased by her sister, Patricia; and her partner David Campbell. She will be missed by her sisters Jacqueline, Dolores, Elaine, Marie and Linda; and by her life long friend, Heather. She was a resident at Winbourne Park Long Term Care in Ajax,where she made many friends whom she adored. Julie will return home with the help of her beloved sisters and finally be at peace. She is deeply missed. Cremation has taken place and interment will take place in 2020 in Dalhousie, New Brunswick.
