It is with a saddened heart that after a challenging struggle, God came and took Irene (Gaydon) Daviau, Home in His arms on Wednesday, October 20, 2021, at the age of 96.  She leaves behind her daughter Carol Gaw (Eldon) and son Ken (Josée). Predeceased by her husband Sylvio, son Roger (Danielle) and sister Joan (Ted).  She loved and was very proud of all her seven grandchildren and her ten great-grandchildren.

She had been in the Queensway Carleton Hospital fighting double pneumonia for two weeks.  She wasn't alone and went peacefully about 3:30 in the afternoon.  The family wishes to thank Dr. Arget and Dr. Bruni, and nurses, Pam, Tamara, Jenn, KC, Eddie, Martine, Sunny and others, for their special care and compassion.

Following her wishes, she will be cremated, and a Celebration of Life will be held Sunday, November 7, 2021 from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm at Pinecrest Funeral Home, 2500 Baseline Road, Ottawa. 

Donations to her favourite charity, the Ottawa Humane Society, would be appreciated.
