Warner, Pauline

In loving memory of our mother, Pauline Joan Warner (nee Hicks), who passed away peacefully on Tuesday, January 28th, 2025 with her family by her side at the age of 87. Pauline moved to Sudbury at the age of 21 and raised her four children with her husband, John Gifford (predeceased). Her parents were Sue Tuharsky (predeceased) and Tom Hicks (predeceased). Dear sister of Murray Hicks (predeceased)(Jenny), her twin brother Paul Hicks (Bob predeceased), and Hazel McLatchie (John)(both predeceased).

Pauline will be greatly missed by her children, Cheryl Rasi (Alan), Joanne Gifford, John Gifford (Dianne), and Robert Gifford (Charlene). All of her ten grandchildren: Catherine, Eric, Tracy, John Jr., Steven, Nathan, Leah, Charles, Abraham, and Lydia, and her ten great-grandchildren will miss her so very much. She will be missed by many nieces and nephews.

Pauline loved being with family, enjoyed spending time in the outdoors, loved campfires and music. She had a very strong connection with animals and all of her many pets. Her faith in God brought her much comfort. She took care of her grandchildren when they were young and loved them with all of her heart. Her smile was infectious and she would light up if there were babies or young children around.

The family wishes to thank Mom’s many friends who loved her like she was part of their family, saying thank you especially to Alice Harrington who could always cheer her up, to Bob Nichols, who kept in touch over the years and could make her laugh, and to Donna (her hairdresser) who always looked after her and make her feel extra special.

Thank you to Pioneer Manor, to all of the caring staff and special volunteers, who made a great effort to take care of our mom.

A celebration of life will be held on Sunday, February 16th, 2025 from 1pm to 4pm at 1873 Sunnyside Road, and all who wish to attend are welcome. In lieu of flowers, donations to a charity of your choice in honour of our mother Pauline are appreciated. Arrangements entrusted to Ranger’s Cremation and Burial Services, Ltd.
