Melanie Jacobi Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 16, 2010.
JACOBI, Melanie Ellen It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to our dearest Melanie, who passed away at age 45 on March 11, 2010 after a courageous struggle with cancer. The pain she endured is no more. Melanie's family was fully supportive during her illness, and was at her side day and night during the final week. Melanie was predeceased by Kevin, Tyler's father, and her father Ed Jacobi. She is lovingly remembered and cherished by her son Tyler, Mark - her kindred spirit and knight in shining armor, her mother Doris, sister Laurianne, brother Lance, (Doris' nieces Ashley and Taryn), niece Tonya (Jim, Natalie and Emillie) her Godmother Pauline McLean, and all who loved her dearly. She will be sorrowfully missed. In keeping with Melanie's wishes, a private family Memorial will be held in celebration of her life. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Melanie's memory to the Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation Cancer Fund for children, 8440 112 Street, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 2B7. Condolences: www.serenity.ca Serenity Funeral Service, Leduc. (780) 980-3688. Your Community Owned, Not For Profit, Funeral and Cremation provider.

God saw you getting tired,
A cure was not to be.
So he wrapped you in his loving arms
And whispered "Come with me".
You suffered much in silence,
Your spirit did not bend.
You faced your pain with courage
Until the very end.
You tried so hard to stay with us
Your fight was all in vain.
God took you to his loving home
And freed you from all pain.

I will never forget you!

To Melanie's Family,
Your love and sorrow has filled my heart with saddness. My first memory of Melanie was when Auntie Dorie brought her over to our house shortly after she was born. I remember Melanie as free spirited and a happy soul. My love and prayers are with you all.

It was only last Thanksgiving that we had the opportunity to catch up with the Jacobi's. A warm welcome to the farm for dinner. I am shocked and saddened to hear of our loss and her passing. A strong woman and mother. I could clearly see that through her son Tyler. She will be in my prayers.

I came to Leduc on Friday and went right to the hospital and asked for her room number and was so sadded by the news I got. Gloria and I were going to see her on Saturday to have a little reunion and take her some black forest cake. My thoughts and prayers are with you all especially for her son Tyler and partner Mark and her mother Doris. She is at peace now. I will always remember her and staying overnight to join in on the fox trots.

Dear Jacobi Family: We are saddened and send our condolences as we learned of Melanie's passing. It has been a very long time since we last saw an energetic Melanie and Jingles running through the yard and house. What a joy she was to the family and all those who visited for Pony Club and other events. Our love and prayers go out to you all as you go through this difficult time.
