(July 20, 1982 - April 11, 2022)
Our beautiful and loved Janelle passed away peacefully on April 11, 2022 at the age of 39 years, at the Royal Alexandra Hospital, after fighting a courageous battle with ovarian cancer.
Left to remember and cherish Janelle are her loving children Jackson and Mya; parents David and Shianne; grandmother Annastasia; uncles Murray (Godfather) and Mike (Janet); aunts Joan (Rick), Maryanne (Calvin), Connie (Gary), Grace (Dave), Louise (Godmother)(Daryl), Lenora (Dwayne), Yvonne (Darren), and Yvette (Duane); great-uncles Father Len, and Donald (Celine); great-aunts Theresa, Alvina, Angie, Doreen, Maggie (Marion), Liz, and Donna; many extended family; many cousins; and a circle of many, many friends.
Janelle was predeceased by grandparents Peter, Jean and Matthew; and numerous relatives and friends.
Janelle was graced with a beautiful loving personality, a ray of sunshine to all. She was so talented – showing amazing hair skills and her outgoing social abilities highlighted to all her customer service employments.
She loved participating and was truly involved in all of Jackson’s loves (baseball, etc), and Mya’s loves (dancing, etc).
Janelle overcame many struggles in her short life, showing courage and strength. Her passion for life continued ever so graceful and faithful – living every moment with complete passion, and to the fullest. Her last battle was fought valiantly.
Janelle will be remembered as “God’s gracious gift” so bright, so precious, so beautiful, so loving, and so loved.
