She enjoyed simple pleasures; countless walks with her beloved dog; dinners with friends; taking a drive to view the natural beauty that surrounded her. She was a remarkable person that impacted so many. Gone too soon but her memory will be treasured forever.

She is survived by her mother and father, Grant and Georgette Willett; her brothers Mathieu, Arthur, Gary, Marc, Michael and Allan Willett; and her sister Sacha Willett.
