COULTER, GARY KAYE – It is with great sadness that the family of Gary Coulter announce his sudden passing on June 16, 2024 at the age of 77, in London, Ontario. Gary was born on April 27, 1947 in Leamington, Ontario. Gary was preceded in death by his Father Carl Coulter and Mother Mary Poole (Davie). He is survived by his devoted wife Nancy, his son Jeff (Shawna), grandchildren Aiden, Leah and Meridith, Nik (Stephanie), great-grandchildren Holden and Olympia. He is survived by his loving sisters Diane (Bill), Susan (Joe) and Debbie (Wayne). After graduating high school, Gary went on to work at Bell Canada. During his time at Bell, Gary worked in Leamington, London and Toronto. It was in Toronto that he met his wife Nancy and retired from Bell in 1995 after 30 years of service. Gary had an amazing career at Bell and loved working there. He had many fond memories of so many people. Gary was an avid scuba diver and traveler and in 1995 he lived his dream of becoming a scuba diving instructor in the Caribbean. At the end of 1997 they moved to Tobermory where they lived for 20 years. Tobermory was Gary’s favourite place on earth.
