I was so shocked and saddened by Heather's passing. It still seems unreal that she is gone. I had the privilege of working with Heather at the LHIN in Port Hope ...I instantly liked her which is unusual for me lol...but she was an amazing human who fiercely loved and protected the vulnerable whether that was her patients her canines or her work buddies in her pod . I miss her as if I knew her a thousand years...that's the kind of person she was...I only got the pleasure of working with her 6 months...she was one of a kind. Heartfelt condolences to her family

So many wonderful memories. I have two that I would like to share.
One most recent memories was spending time with my sister at the pub having good laughs and listening to live music and having a couple of pints.
A funny memory I have that mom and I just had a good laugh about was when Heather took on a grooming position across from the farm. Our sheepdog dog at the time had matted hair really bad and Heather decided to give him a haircut. He came back to the farm shaved and looked like a poodle lol. This was done in all good intentions, but pops our sheepdog was not to excited about his new haircut and hid inside his doghouse for like a week, he was so embarrassed lol.
Lots of laughs that’s for sure
Miss you lots Heath

Lord, at the moment nothing seems to be able to help the loss I feel. My heart is broken, and my spirit mourns. I pour out my grief to You. I ask You still my anxious mind and calm my racing thoughts. Help me to find peace and give me light to guide me out of this darkness.
Surround the family and friends of Heather (turts) with Your love, that they may not be overwhelmed by their loss. Hear my prayer for those in anguish, when the days seems empty of hope. Comfort and strengthen those who mourn today. Keep them in Your care and help them as they grieve and struggle to understand Heather (turts) untimely death.
Lord, You do not leave us in this life nor abandon us in death. Heather (turts) was made in Your image and was valuable in Your sight. By Your grace she lived on this earth for _____43_____ years, but now her time here has come to an end. Lord, I ask you grant Heather (turts) rest and peace from her inner turmoil.
Jesus said:
My peace I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. John 14: 27
We ask this, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

I was Heather’s Team Assistant at the Central East LHIN and we hit it off right away. Heather and I shared the same sense of humour and potty mouth lol. She was real, hilarious, hard working, and fiercely loyal to her patients. I felt like I knew her for much longer than I did. When I moved out West we chatted and I asked her to come visit me, which she excitedly agreed to. Unfortunately that never came to pass. My heart is broken for her sweet pups who were her world…much like mine are to me. Heather was a fiery, beautiful person taken way too soon and she will be deeply missed. Love you, girl. Rest easy ❤️

You came into my life like a hurricane !!
Your hard nosed, no crap attitude! I loved you the minute you said “I call bulls#it”
You were loving, thoughtful, harsh, brash, sympathetic, eager, sexy, respectful, honest, supportive”. You were my number one cheerleader! We had plans!! I kept a wall up!! But you chipped away at it!! I loved you!! I held my cards close to my chest! I needed you in my life! We had plans! We talked of our future! I loved your boys, why did you keep apologizing for them running around my house? We had plans!
I miss you ! We pinky promised!! I loved you! We had plans !

I had the pleasure of working with Heather at GPL. I orientated her to our work her first shift and I felt like I had known her forever. People even asked, oh did you work with her before? No I hadn't. But Heather made everyone feel like she had known them forever. She had a way about making people feel important and heard. She made you feel comfortable enough to share things you might not with anyone else. I had also been her shoulder to cry on during some rough patches. And I was glad I could be there for her to talk to and support. I always admired her energy and outgoing personality, even when I hadn't had my morning coffee yet, lol. As a nurse she always looked out for her residents and fellow staff. She was an amazing person who will be truly missed. Work won't be the same without you and this world has suffered a great loss. I am a better person for having known you and this world was a better place having had you in it. Your infectious and beautiful smile is forever ingrained in my heart. Thank-you for all the laughs and rest in peace my friend ❤️ condolences to your family, your boys are surely missing you ❤️

My dearest Heather .. the most intelligent, passionate , loving and caring person to walk the earth. We bonded so quickly, like two peas in a pod. Sharing the love of our pups, our very similar opinions and horrible jokes LOL. From the moment I met you , I immediately idolized you. You’d always advocate for the right thing.. exposing facts and knowledge to back yourself along with your witty personality ( which I admired most about you :) ) You were such a strong and courageous individual. Always offering me your life advice, which I also took to heart even if It was brutally honest and too harsh for my sensitive self. I love you to pieces. I will miss you more than you know.. you most definitely have a place in my heart.. forever friend. Heaven is so lucky to have you. I’ll miss you bud ❤️❤️❤️ My condolences to your family and your boys. I know they’re missing their momma so much right now ❤️❤️

I can't imagine not seeing you again. You were such a good person & a great nurse and you always made me laugh. Such a good ear for all but at times had the greatest potty mouth. One never knew what was coming. Be at peace my friend. You had a huge impact on so many people, twice as much as people who have been around twice as long. Gone way too soon.

Turts, you have gone way too soon. Some of my best times working at BV was working with you. We had the best laughs, we had some cries, but most of all the we had an amazing time working together and getting to know each other. A fond memory I have is when you brought over you precious car so Mumzy (my Mom) could see it. You were both so excited..you sat with my Mom on our porch and chatted for a long time. She still remembers meeting you for the first time. She said who is that pretty girl and fell in love. She misses you very much. I could go on but for now I will say RIP pretty lady. That you were. You will be forever in our hearts. Shine your beautiful light Angel. I’ll feel ya!

I can hear you RIGHT NOW marching through my front door…”Hey Kells, whatcha doing”. You and I both know you didn’t say it like THAT! I can’t put in to words how much I’m going to miss you. Guess what? Celine is staying!! You would be jumping up and down screaming. I’ll keep Dylan in line AND your girl Clover sends sloppy Great Dane kisses. I love you girl. IFP.
