Nathalie Beauregard

In hospital, with family by her side and surrounded with love, Nathalie lost her courageously fought battle with leukemia, on Wednesday, March 11, 2015 at the tender age of 23 years. She leaves her life partner and best friend Steve Brousseau and their much loved infant son Luka. Her loss is also deeply mourned by her parents Jo-Anne and Aimé, loving brother Marcel, her mother-and-father-in-law Sylvie and Yves Brousseau, brother-in-law Jeff (Éliane), three nieces Josyanne, Lily Rose et Maely, her grandparents Alpha Beauregard, Annette et Gérard Mathews and Dalton Brown, dear friend – Valerie Petrin, many uncles, aunts, cousins and friends. A Memorial Service celebrating Nathalie's life will be held the Church of the Visitation, Gracefield, QC on Saturday, March 21, 2015 at 11:00 am. Nathalie and her family invite you to join them, following the service, for a reception at the Gracefield Community Hall and at Nathalie's last request "no more tears for me – please come wearing a smile and share stories of joy and laughter". The family wish to extend a heartfelt thank you to the staff at the Ottawa General Hospital, especially the team on 5 West for their tender and loving care, compassion and kindness shown to Nathalie and her family, the ICU for their professionalism, Lise and Keith Smith for their hospitality, Cécile and Robert Cormeau for such good childcare and to the communities and associations who so generously supported Steve and Nathalie. For those wishing a donation to Leucan, the Little Angels Blood Cancer Fund (Ottawa General Hospital) or a charity of your choice would be appreciated.
