November 25th, 1914 - November 19th, 2022

Having enjoyed an extremely long and healthy lifespan, Alice Gabel passed peacefully on Nov. 19 while in her 108th year.

She was predeceased by her husband, Earl, in 2001.

Alice was a remarkable woman having many talents. As an artist she received awards and sold many of her oil paintings. Her numerous other capabilities included working for a lawyer, investing wisely, being an expert seamstress and creating her own clothing. Alice was an avid card player, a self taught pianist, and served for many years as the accountant for her husband’s business. She will be greatly missed by all those who had the good fortune of knowing her.

Most saddened are her children, David (Anita), Bruce (Jean), Suzanne, Paul (Debbie), her 6 grandchildren (Rod, Todd, Leigh, Greg, Martyn, Jesse), her 4 great grandchildren and her brother Don.

Special thanks are given to those in the Rose Garden at St. Joseph’s Villa in Dundas, Ontario, who took great interest and care of her these past years. Special thanks also to Calvary United Church in Kitchener where she was a charter member.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date at Calvary Church.
