June 24, 1962 – September 26, 2026
Marie Lise Denise Mowat passed away peacefully at home after a 12 year courageous battle with cancer. Beloved mother to Alex and Christian, daughter to Annette Mowat, sister to Martine Mowat, Vlad Bortnowski and Mirela Luca, aunt to Madeleine Mowat-Carmet and Maxim Bortnowski, predeceased by her father Frank Mowat.
Denise grew up in Toronto and attended St. Joseph’s Morrow Park High School. She graduated from Humber College as a Youth Counsellor and worked at Thistle Town and then Peel Region Catholic School for 30 years assisting young people in crisis. Denise was quick to laugh, humble and incredibly kind. Denise will be terribly missed by her circle of friends: Lillian, Jennifer, Caroline, Ilse, Stephanie, Siobhan and Laura. We will never forget her.
