Ctibor (Gerry) Heriban passed away peacefully at Brampton Civic Hospital on Wednesday, November 1st, 2017 at the age of 82. He was the beloved husband of Silvia, father of Kristie (Ted), Ivan (Anne) and Eric, and grandfather of Alex, Olivia, Angie and Serena, all of whom he is survived by. Gerry was born on January 6th, 1935, in Bratislava, Slovakia. He married Silvia on October 28, 1960, and after having two of their three children, they made the brave decision to move to Canada in 1969 to start a new life. Gerry worked hard to support his family for many years. In his spare time, he had a passion for photography, calligraphy and origami, and his art was always well-loved by those around him. After 82 long years, Gerry felt ready to discover what lies beyond life and was sent off with his family by his side. His family wishes he could have stayed longer, but understands that it was his time. His love and zest for life will always be remembered.

Condolences for the family of “Ctibor “Gerry” Heriban”
Dear Sylvia, Kristie, Ivan, Eric and Family,
We will miss Gerry, his impish humour and his beautiful cards with their exquisite calligraphy. We marvel at the skill and patience that went into his wonderful origami creations. As was said, it was a brave decision for him and Sylvia to emigrate to Canada with a young family, and he took great pride in the children that they raised. He was an intelligent man with a questioning spirit and he showed great courage in his final days.
We are so sorry for the loss of your husband, father and grandfather.
Marilyn Conway Jones
