Louise Lemay Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Feb. 22, 2017.
Mary Louise Lemay
January 30, 1956 – February 21, 2017

It is with great sadness that the family of Louise Lemay announces her passing after a courageous battle with cancer at the age of 61.

Louise is survived by her parents Mederic and Mary Ellen Lemay, her sisters Debby, Teresa (Ray), Maureen and her brother Murray (Joelle), she is also survived by her children Stacey (Darrin), Sean (Brie), Christopher (Julie) and by the true lights of her life, her grandchildren Julian, Tegen, Emma, Kaine, Kamryn and Remington, as well as many nieces, nephews and a world of friends.

Louise was born and raised in Kenora. She loved life, her family and her friends. She was never happier than when she was surrounded by the people she cared for the most.

Louise spent most of her working career at the Royal Bank, where she met many lifelong friends, whether they were co-workers of clients. She was always known for her beautiful, warm smile and the incredibly classy way she was always dressed.

She will be forever missed by everyone who knew her.

A Celebration of Louise's Life will be held at 1:00 pm, Wednesday, March 1, 2017 at Brown Funeral Home & Cremation Centre with a luncheon to follow at the Minis Hall (Super 8 – 240 Lakeview Drive).

Immediately following the service the family will be attending a private interment at the Lake of the Woods Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society in Louise's name, or to a charity of your choice, would be greatly appreciated by the family.

Online condolences may be made at www.brownfuneralhomekenora.com

My sincerest condolences and deepest sympathies to Louise's family. I grew up with her children, and called her "Mom". She was my other "Mom", giving advice when needed, and a shoulder too. And when I needed it, a stern talking to about making good choices.
She was an amazing lady, and her spirit will now shine from up above to watch over her children and grandchildren.
Sending my love to her family, especially Stacey, Chris, Sean, and their spouses and children.
I shall always miss your mother, may she live on in all of you. XOX
