In Celebration of

Diane Gazzola

September 3, 1956 -  April 8, 2023

On Saturday, April 8th, 2023, at the age of 66, Diane Gazzola passed away at Credit Valley Hospital, Mississauga. She will be greatly loved and deeply missed.
Diane was born and raised in Guelph, Ontario by her father Angelo (predeceased) and mother Elsa.
Shortly after her marriage to Rob, they moved to the GTA in 1980, finally settling in Mississauga where they raised their three boys. Diane worked as a legal secretary, full time mom and then an office administrator with RE/MAX Realty Specialists for almost 25 years. Diane was a volunteer at her boy's elementary school and active with their minor hockey and baseball teams. Her passion was reading, which she did in her spare time, evenings and on vacation, it wouldn't be unusual for her to finish a novel or two in a weeks' time. She also enjoyed travelling, especially to Italy.
Diane departed peacefully in her sleep, holding hands with her devoted and loving husband of 43 years, Rob. She is survived by her loving son’s Justin, Simon (Leah) and Brian. Cherished Nonna of Isabel, Kaiden, Kaylee and Madden. Predeceased by her brother John (Millie) and remembered by her brother David (Lisa), daughter-in-law of Romano (predeceased) and Ines, brothers-in-law Louie (Arlene) and Dino (Susan) and sisters-in-law Mary (Doug) and Nadia (Roberto) and all her nieces and nephews.

Diane and I grew up on the same street, our mothers were best friends, and Diane and I were co-workers. She was always down-to-earth, sincere, and had a very special laugh. We will meet again some day, and we will share our famous hug. Love you.

Rob, David and Elsa - Wishing your family peace, comfort, courage, and lots of love at this time of sorrow. Diane was a lovely person and I have fond memories with her (and the rest of the Garbuio family) when her brother John married my sister Millie. I am thinking of you and your family and sending caring thoughts your way to support you through this. xo
