Peacefully, in her 66th year, Fay passed away at St. Michael’s Hospital, in Toronto, on October 23, 2014. She courageously underwent surgery for a brain tumour earlier this month and sadly, suffered complications from which she did not recover. Fay was a long time employee and manager at Bell Canada and later CGI. She is predeceased by her beloved husband, Tony Valente and is survived by her brother John (Kimberley); niece Tina; nephew Mike; sister Beatrice Channon; and nephew Jesse (Zuzana). Left with memories are her extended Ransom and Valente families. “Nana Fay” will be sadly missed by her step children and step grandchildren. Fay collected many close friends throughout her life and always enjoyed her excursions with them. She enjoyed volunteering and was an avid reader. For a number of years Fay was an active member of the Westminster United Church in Whitby. Special thanks are extended to the nursing staff at St. Mike’s Trauma ICU department for their compassionate care. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer Society of Canada or the charity of your choice.
