elevated 0Ca5A Obituary

elevated 0Ca5A It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Lillian Marjorie Laporte on Sunday July 24 , 2022 at the age of 49 after a brief battle with cancer. Lillian’s friendships date back to her childhood, through high school and in the workplace- everyone described her as a kind and loving soul. Her infectious laugh and bright smile were her trademark, while her ability to always see the best in others kept her diverse friendship circles both wide and close. Many comment on Lillian’s love for socializing with friends; she was always ready to celebrate others with her signature laugh and long flowing curls. Lillian worked for 30 years at Rogers Communications, where she moved up the ranks from front desk receptionist to a Senior Manager. Her colleagues knew her as a generous and inclusive leader, always supportive of others both in their professional and personal lives. For several years she organized the company wide Family Holiday Party, bringing together friends and family for a joyous occasion.

elevated 0Ca5A Lillian gave birth to her life’s joy and happiness, daughter Alexandra, on March 10, 2016. She devoted her life to Alexandra, even overcoming her own fear of water to take Mom and Tots swim class! Her ability to easily connect with others is a key reason why a village of close friends remain steadfastly committed to keeping Lillian’s memory alive for her precious daughter. 

elevated 0Ca5A Lillian is survived by her daughter, mother (Lucille), her sister (Audrey), brother (Kevin), aunt (Sarah), nephew (Nathan) and a large extended family. She was predeceased by her father (Ralph).
