GARRY
ALMAS
Peacefully, after a
difficult and complex illness, Garry went home to his Maker on Friday, January
10, 2014 at the Health Sciences Centre, at the age of 64 years.
Left to sorely miss Garry are his wife
Katherine of 24 years of marriage; in-laws Lois and Wallace English of
Peterborough, ON; dear family and friends from both Canada and the USA; and
many of his students. He was predeceased
by his loving grandparents, Bertha and Carl Brown of Bothwell, ON.
Garry a high school
teacher from The Pas, MB, formerly from ON, enjoyed travel and teaching with
Katherine. History buff, avid reader and thinker, he was interested in many
current issues, and loved to debate. Garry will be dearly remembered for his
joy for life, knowledge, humour, courage, generous spirit, outgoing good
nature, inspiration to others, and his faith in an Almighty God.
A Memorial Service will
be held in The Pas, MB later this month. Interment will take place in Ontario
at a later date.
Thanks to the
medical staff of The Pas Hospital, Riverview Centre, and the Health Sciences
MICU and GA medical ward for your care.

donations can be made to Garry's favourite charities, The International
Fellowship of Christians and Jews, P.O. Box 670, Station K, Toronto, ON M4P 2H1,
