Diana Geary
July 15, 1965 - February 10, 2024
Diana Lee Geary of Uxbridge, Ontario passed away suddenly but peacefully at home, on February 10th.
Loving wife of Doug Geary, exceptional mother of Hillary Geary, beloved daughter of Carol and the late Paul Wilson, dear sister of Eric Wilson (Lianne Wilson), Sue Rhodes, predeceased by her brother Grant Wilson.
Diana will be lovingly remembered by her nieces, nephews, family, and numerous friends.
Diana was a family first person, and put everyone’s needs in front of her own. Although Diana had only been in Uxbridge for 8 years, she loved the town dearly.
She was proud to support small local businesses; be it for fresh flowers, the farmers market, brewers and cideries, the movie theatre, music hall, and all the local shops in town. Diana's passions evolved over the years. At 24, she earned her pilot's license, and logged many hours in the sky while working at Peterborough and Buttonville Airports. Diana was also very devoted to her work.
Over 23 years, she climbed through the ranks from Business Analyst at Financialinx to VP of Operations at GM Financial, and was often the first (and sometimes the last) person in the office.
Relatives and friends are invited to call at Low & Low Funeral Home (23 Main St., S, Uxbridge) on Tuesday February 20, 2024 from 2 - 4 & 6 - 8 PM. A Celebration of Diana’s life will be held at the funeral home on Wednesday February 21, 2024 at 1:00 PM. Reception to follow.
In memory of Diana donations may be made to Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada or Uxbridge Loaves and Fishes Food Bank or the Uxbridge and District Curling Club.
