In Loving Memory of Laura Gill

Words From the Team

Laura was part of the Florian Realty Team from the very early years. She and Andrea began working side by side around Andrea’s kitchen table — with laughter, their little ones playing in the yard, and big ideas taking shape. From those early days, Laura’s warmth, humour, and steady kindness helped shape the heart of who we are and those conversations and shared moments built the foundation of our team today.

Laura’s energy could fill a room. She wasn’t afraid to laugh out loud or reach out to someone in need. She somehow knew how to say hello in almost every language. She cared deeply for everyone she met — both personally and professionally — and she always remembered the small details. People felt instantly comfortable with her and opened up easily to her.

Laura faced her six-month battle with grace and strength, and even in her hardest moments, she found humour and light — always making those around her feel cared for. She was a classic beauty, inside and out, and she always led with her heart.

We’ll miss her dancing through the hallways, her gentle smile, her animated phone greetings, her laughter, and her love for dance music, peanut butter cups, ice cream, and all things sweet.

While we mourn her loss deeply, we’re so grateful for the privilege of having had her in our lives each day. We love you and miss you, Laura.

Our hearts are with Don, Eva, and Claire.

p.s. Thank you to everyone who has reached out by text, email, social media, or phone call. We’ve loved hearing your stories and feeling connected to her through you all.

March 27, 1975 – November 6, 2025

After a courageous battle with cancer, we are sad to announce the passing of Laura on Thursday, November 6, 2025, at Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital at the age of 50. Beloved wife of Don and devoted mother of Eva and Claire. The cherished daughter of Bonita King and Anthony (Patricia) King and treasured by her devoted sister, Rosalind (Mike) who helped care for her every day over the last six months. She will be so missed by their sons, Michael, Patrick and Thomas as well as by her mother-in-law, Betty and her sister-in-law, Debbie, who adored her. Laura will be deeply missed by her extended family and the many, many friends that she was always privileged to have. Laura will be forever remembered for her grace, kindness and glorious smile. She was magnetic and always left people better than when she found them. She will always be loved and deeply missed.
