LORISSA ASHLEY BROWNE December 24, 1990 - January 22, 2019 It is with great sorrow that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved daughter Lorissa on Tuesday, January 22, 2019, at her home in Winnipeg. Lorissa was predeceased by her brother Jimmy. Lorissa leaves behind her mother Lori, father Jim, and sister Rhianna, as well as aunts, uncles, cousins and many friends. Lorissa was her parent's first child and grew up in East St. Paul. She loved to dance and took ballet and jazz. Music was one of her great loves and she loved to sing whether in a choir or with her friends when they got together. She loved her friends, they made her the happiest. Whether that was going out or sitting around, she truly loved to be with them. She loved the outdoors and had been enjoying our spot in Lac Du Bonnet with us as much as she could. She loved to snowboard and enjoyed trips to many mountains in Canada and the US. She also loved to escape to warmer destinations with friends or family. After college Lorissa became a successful salesperson. Her last full time position was Marketing Associate at Sysco. A service will be held on Tuesday, January 29 at 7:00 p.m. at Cropo Funeral Chapel & Crematorium, 1800 Day Street. For the past few years Lorissa had been battling anxiety, depression and alcoholism, and sadly she lost her fight. In lieu of flowers, we would ask you to support the Canadian Mental Health Association in Winnipeg.

Condolences & Memories (5 entries)

  • Words cannot express how deeply saddened we are to hear of Lorissa’s passing. Please know you and your family are in our constant thoughts during this difficult time. We have wonderful memories of Lorissa, dating our son in the high school years, watching them at graduation and how she would sing around the campfire at our lake while Curtis played guitar. We remember how our bottom step on our deck at the lake was too big of a gap for her to navigate so we quietly built an extra step for her, to this day we still call it Lorissa’s step. She could remember line for line of movies that she loved which would make us all laugh and enjoy. Her quick wit and sense of humor were things we all loved about her. Lorissa will always hold a special place in our hearts and she will never be forgotten. Thinking of your family with love, please accept our condolences.

  • I remember when you were still in your mommys' tummy and how proud your parents were. Remember the dad Moo moo honey called to let me know you arrived. Said a prayer and thank God you were here safe and sound. As I took care of Baba and saw you grow, I remember your beautiful hair and your quirky smile when you were having fun with poppa. You became your own little person. We remember "dancing" in circles at Poppa and Moo moo honey's 4 th and mom & I both pregnant! Me with Aimee and mom with Jimmy. Your were happy to be a big sister. I also remember the day mom held Aimee and I held Jimmy for the first time. And sadly the last time. I thought that was the darkest day in you parents and your lives. How you missed your little brother. Then a couple years later, you were a big sis again with the birth of Rhinna. Unfortunately now, she will feel the same as you did many years ago. She has lost a part of herself. The comfort to your family is now you are with your little brother Jimmy and will care for him until the rest of your family is together again. I know you fought hard and many do not understand what happens to people who have these "demons" until they deal with them everyday. I know, because I deal with it. Yes mom, dad and Rhianna are hurting now, but they love you and are glad you have no more pain. The world is quieter now because we have loss, the sound of your sweet voice and the sight of your smile, but Heaven is blessed with you now. Your family and friends will carry on and it may take a long time, but that's because you were loved so much. So smile sweet angel and sing to Jimmy, Poppa, Moo moo honey and Baba. Heaven has a beautiful star shining bright because of you and the love you brought with you. Rest now honey, you fought long enough while you were here on earth. I/we will remember you always! 😢💔🙏🏼❤️ - Posted by: Roy, Darlene and Aimee Stoodley (Friends, ( second family) ) on: Jan 26, 2019
