GOLBOURNE, Daphne Sylvia Golbourne
October 17, 1930 - March 28, 2022
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our One in a Million, Daphne Sylvia Golbourne who, with family by her side, transitioned from this life at 4:30PM on Monday March 28, 2022 at the Seven Oaks Long-Term Care Home in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada.
Affectionately known as Daph, Mrs. Daph or Aunt Daph, she was a loving mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, church sister and dear friend to many.
She is survived by her devoted sons Radcliffe (Nydia) and Wycliffe, as well as her grandchildren: Edana and Aaron Joseph.
Also left to mourn her loss is Daphne’s only remaining sibling Hope (George), along with countless nieces and nephews here in the Greater Toronto Area, Manitoba, New York, Florida, Cayman Islands, UK and of course Jamaica (West Indies), her place of birth.
A strong, independent woman, Daphne spent her career working in the service industry as well as being the owner of two different businesses - one in Jamaica and one in Canada. She was an avid gardener and a talented and creative seamstress.
In fact, she was a jack of all trades as she was able to observe, assess and fix most things in her environment. For this, she often credited her father who was a carpenter. Throughout her life and career God was always at the centre of it all. Now she’s with her Heavenly Father.
Daphne is predeceased by her late husband Neville Golbourne. Siblings, sisters: Roslyn, Mavis, Dorice. Brothers: Hugh, Ivan, George, Llewelyn Sr. “Jackie” and finally Joseph “Bill” who passed away one day prior to the passing of Mrs. Daph.
Our family’s irreplaceable treasure will never be forgotten and will live within our hearts forever. Heaven has received an angel!
Offering and donations will be collected and gifted in Daphne Golbourne’s name to support Health Care and Long-Term Care Facilities which have been instrumental in her care during the final phases of her glorious life.

Gail Norma Wentworth
Our beloved Gail, known for her selflessness, infinite love and compassion, passed away after a sudden and unexpected illness with her family by her side.
Gail is a loving and adored mother and rock of Linda and her husband Rob.
She is also the cherished “Grams” of Bradley, Nicole (Jesse) and Erica (Michael) who proved to be her entire world.
Daily (and endless) phone calls and giggles were never failed to be had with her beloved sister Allison (Laurie) who she also had the pleasure of travelling (a lot) of the world with along with her beloved sister-by-choice, Marilyn.
She is also a loving sister of Pat (Mike) and Joan (Mike) and will be remembered dearly by her nieces and nephew. She will also be dearly missed by all of her “fur-babies”, Bailey, Skye and Kali.
Gail was a special and one-of-a-kind-human who dedicated her life to travelling the world and taking care of her people.
Her strength, resiliency and positive outlook on life are truly inspiring to all those who had the pleasure of loving her back.
Her active and dedicated role as a Mother and Grams will leave her family forever missing her and appreciating all that she was to them… a light that shined brighter than the sun and the moon combined.
