We Remember

NERPIN, Gwendolyn Irene

November 2, 1961 — August 2, 2025

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Gwendolyn Irene Nerpin, who passed away peacefully on August 2, 2025, at the age of 63.

Born on November 2, 1961, in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Gwen was a devoted mother to Ansley Reynolds, Gwendolyn P. Nerpin, Andrew Nerpin, Brittany Wrixon (née Nerpin), and Holly Nerpin (d. 2023); a loving grandmother to Odin and Annika; and a cherished friend to many.

Gwen was known for her infectious laughter, her unwavering strength, and her boundless love for her family. More than anything, she devoted her life to her children. They were her purpose, her greatest joy, and her deepest pride. Through her resilience, kindness, and love, she made each of them stronger.

She dedicated her life to creating a warm and loving home, filled with cherished traditions, countless acts of kindness, and delicious meals — especially her famous spaghetti sauce. When her children were young, she always went above and beyond to ensure they had everything they needed, showering them with attention, encouragement, and support. Her passion for cooking and raising her family brought her joy, and she loved sharing that joy with those around her.

She spent her final moments surrounded by the love of her children, a reflection of the devotion that guided her life.

Gwen will be deeply missed by her children, grandchildren, extended family, and all who were fortunate enough to know her. Her legacy of love, compassion, and resilience will live on forever in our hearts.

A private family service will be held.
