I met Vanessa this past April at our Compassionate Care course and our assigned seating had us sitting next to each other. Vanessa had an infectious smile and was easy to talk to that made feel comfortable. Although I knew Vanessa for a blink of an eye, I feel such a great loss at hearing of her passing. My heartfelt and deepest of sympathies to her daughters, family and friends. I will miss her and always keep Vanessa in my thoughts and prayers. My heart aches.

I met Vanessa in Calgary , I was a new young mom of 3. Vanessa and Tara were my neighbours. We talked over the fence. My 4 yr old twins went over to sneak cookies from the neighbours. When I had Tyrell that day just a week old and passed him over the fence for Vanessa to hold. I could never imagine that we would grow and eventually became family. I always admired Vanessa for her bright outlook on life. An amazing mom😊 Always a happy perspective change on any topic we discussed. My last visit in December, I was able to meet Courtney. Seeing Vanessa so happy and in love. They were Both here beaming with love ♥️ It was so beautiful to see Vanessa and Courtney so happy 😊 My deepest condolences to Gloria, you had an amazing daughter that always helped me and my now my (adult) children . Gloria please feel free to contact me if you wish. I have photos I’d love to pass on to whomever would like them 😊 My heartfelt condolences to you Courtney . I hope you are held in the arms of the angels, family, and friends. Please feel free to reach out anytime ✌️ My deepest heartfelt condolences to Tara & Lisa & Aubrie & Arianna.
