Diane Elizabeth Stratford

The family of Diane Elizabeth Stratford (nee Blake) are saddened to announce her sudden passing on August 26, 2025. Diane will be deeply missed by her siblings William (Margaret), Robert (Donna), Frederick (Dana), Brenda (Phil), and Caroline. She is also lovingly remembered by her in-laws Gordon Stratford (Lyn) and John Stratford (Carolyn) along with many cherished nieces and nephews, adored great-nieces and great-nephews, and her treasured fur baby, Dustie.

She was predeceased by her beloved husband, Graham, and their infant daughter, Rebecca. Diane also joins her parents, Floyd and Elsie Blake, and her in-laws, John and Diana Stratford, in eternal rest.

Diane was, and will always be, our big sister — the one who always had an opinion, usually shared whether you asked or not, and who somehow managed to be both the boss and the heart of the family. Our family will miss her wisdom, her wit, and her wonderfully stubborn spirit. A longtime and faithful member of First Baptist Church in Brampton, Diane found joy and community in her church family. We take comfort in knowing Diane is now in the presence of Jesus.

The family extends heartfelt thanks to the Georgetown Police for their compassion and care during this difficult time.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Jones Funeral Home in Georgetown, Ontario. Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life will be held on Friday, September 19, 2025 at 1 p.m. with a visitation taking place before from 12-1 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations to the First Baptist Church in Brampton or the Charity of your choice in Diane's memory would be gratefully appreciated.
