With profound sadness, we announce the unexpected passing on of Egbert Gaye, editor-in-chief of the Montreal Community Contact. Egbert met his untimely demise on the evening of Sunday, June 4, 2023.
 
He was a pillar for the Black and Caribbean community across Quebec. Passionate and devoted to amplifying the voices of the voiceless and empowering his community. His loss leaves a void that will be felt by the entire community, especially his beloved wife, son and daughter-in-law. As well as his extended family, friends, and colleagues.
 
We extend our deepest condolences to everyone who loved and knew him. We share in your grief and request that you please respect the family’s desire for privacy during this time.

As she approaches another birthday on October 15th, her 109th, Mrs. Una Adams says these days she is less inclined for any big celebration.
“I’m really looking forward to spending the day with my family. That for me is as good as it gets.”
She says family is never far away, but having them around on that special day really means something, and is hoping also that one of her grandsons, who is currently in Nova Scotia, will be making the trip to see her soon.
As it has been when we spoke on her 105th birthday, Mrs. Adams was gracious, engaging and quick to laughter.
