Alyssa Diana Buddingh

Alyssa was vibrant, loving, caring, fun, and truly free-spirited. She had a light that could brighten any room and a smile that made people feel instantly at ease. She lived life fully and fearlessly, always making the most out of every moment she was given.

She loved figure skating, spending time with family and friends, going on adventures in her pink Subaru, laughing until it hurt, and creating memories that will stay with us forever. Alyssa had a special way of making people feel loved, accepted, and important. Her kindness and strength touched everyone who knew her.

Even through her illness, Alyssa fought with incredible courage, determination, and grace. She showed us what true strength looks like and inspired so many people along the way. Though cancer took her from us far too soon, it never took her spirit.

Alyssa was a beloved daughter, sister, granddaughter, niece, cousin, and friend. She leaves behind countless people who loved her deeply and who will forever carry her memory in their hearts.

Our angel is now free from pain, at peace, and watching over us always.

Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever 27. 🤍

Funeral arrangements entrusted to Gilbert MacIntyre & Son Funeral Home – Hart Chapel (1099 Gordon St. Guelph). A Celebration of life will be held at a later date. Memorial contributions in Alyssa’s honour to the Gunnar Heinrich Foundation would be appreciated by the family.
