Lolita Cheveallier passed away on April 15, 2021, peacefully in her home surrounded by her family who loved her immensely. Lolita was 57 years old, born in Vancouver and lived most her life in the White Rock/South Surrey area.
Lolita was a truly magnificent person, an unsung hero, the best mother, wife and friend one could ever hope for. She was always happy, never complained, and gave of herself endlessly. Lolita continuously did fun things with her children who she adored so much, road trips, adventures and supporting their activities. Lolita studied computer systems technology at Kwantlen College, and had a career as a software developer, but more importantly to her she spent 15 years as a stay-at-home mom, and was the centre of a wonderful family home in which she tirelessly cared for her family. She gardened, was a wonderful cook, played with her children, nursed them when they were sick, and was always loving.
In the last several years of her life she was declining with a terminal illness. Throughout she remained happy, smiling, laughing, dancing daily. To the end she said she was truly blessed, told everyone how much she loved them, and said don't cry for me. She was courageous, smiling and spreading love to her final moments, despite the severity of her illness.
Lolita is survived by her husband David (Cruickshank), her children Callie, Billy, Rianna (Cruickshank) and Liam (Cruickshank), her grandchildren Brooklyn and William. Also her mother Elke (Donschenko), father Fritz (Leutgeb), stepmom Wilma (Leutgeb), sisters Lorraine (Bullinger), Lisa (Redding), Michelle (Minchinton), Tanya (Donschenko), and brother Michael (Donschenko).
Those of us who were fortunate to have her in our lives, will be enriched for the rest of our lives.
