Gerald "Jerry" Markle

Sadly, on Thursday, October 24th, 2024, Gerald Edward Markle of Toronto, ON, passed away peacefully surrounded by family.  He was the husband of the late Carol Markle (Nickason), survived by his two daughters Cindy McIntosh & her husband Dave and Angela Markle and her partner Fred Cook, and granddaughters Danielle McIntosh and Heidi Preston.  He leaves behind many cherished family, friends and a beloved granddog.

Gerald was born in Huntsville, ON on March 30, 1942.  He led a simple but meaningful life where he had a strong passion for cooking and loved to share his dishes. 

"Jerky" was an avid sports fan with a true love for his Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Yankees.  He was always putting a smile on people's faces with his quick-witted sense of humour and comical mispronunciation of words.  He had a big heart and infectious laugh that will be greatly missed.
