OLIVIA LOIS WADDELL
Date of Passing: Feb 19, 2012
Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryOLIVIA LOIS WADDELL It is with our profound sadness we announce the sudden passing of Olivia Lois Waddell on Sunday, February 19, 2012. With family and friends at our side, we welcomed our little angel into a world she left far too soon. Olivia was born at St. Boniface Hospital in Winnipeg on February 19, 2012, the daughter of Jared and Rebecca (Bence) Waddell. She leaves to mourn her parents and big brother Evan, Grandparents Duncan and Audrey Waddell (Newdale) and Barry and Clarice Bence (Winnipeg), Aunts and Uncles Aynsley and Neill Strocen, Sarah and Chris Katiniaris, and Jonathan Bence all of Winnipeg along with three little cousins Allie, Kayla, and Theo, as well as many wonderful friends and extended family scattered across the world. Although she was only with us for a short while, Olivia brought much joy to all of our lives and will be sorely missed. Fly, fly, our little butterfly. Special thanks to our friends and families, all of the doctors, nurses, and chaplains in the L.D.R.P. unit at St. Boniface Hospital for their compassion and support. Very special thanks to Chris, the nurse who oversaw our first evening with our precious little girl. You truly were an angel during our most trying moments. A special thanks to Pastor Michael Kurtz for being there when we needed you the most. We are also extremely grateful to the volunteers at the hospital for providing thoughtful keepsakes to remember our precious little girl, along with the tremendous support we have received from all of our family, friends, and co-workers. Your acts of caring, words of encouragement and personal stories have lifted us more than you could ever know. A celebration of Olivia's life will be held on Friday, February 24, 2012 at First Lutheran Church, 580 Victor Street, Winnipeg, MB. Viewing will begin at 10:30 a.m. and the service will start at 11:00 a.m. with a private family interment to follow. All are welcome. For those who wish, donations can be made through the family to sponsor a park bench in Olivia's memory to be placed in the butterfly garden at the Children's Playground at Assiniboine Park. Donations to the L.D.R.P. unit at St. Boniface Hospital, Plan Canada, or any other children's charity of your choice would be gratefully received.

I just saw the beautiful bench at St Vital park in memory of your daughter. I too have experienced the death of a child my baby girl was born almost 4 months to soon, I got to hold her in my arms when she left us. She too is a butterfly. Just wanted to say sorry for your loss and that I think the bench is a beautiful tribute to your daughter. May time bring you healing and may Olivia be free as a beautiful butterfly. - Posted by: pamela martin () on: Jun 22, 2013
