ARIELEA ASHLEY BRAUN

It is with deep sadness we announce the sudden and untimely death of Arielea Ashley Braun. She passed away on Thursday, June 18^th, 2020 at 1:20 a.m. in the care of the Health Sciences Centre intensive care unit at the age of 31 years.

She is survived by her mother Susan, father Mark and younger siblings; Anastasia and Mackenzie, along with her grandparents; Mary, Sara and Abe.

She is predeceased by her Papa Plouffe who she loved and missed very deeply.

Arielea was such a light in this world, her spirit was so bright, her heart was so big. She had such a love for nature and animals, she loved her dog Boss so much and loved to tend to her garden. She was so creative and artistic; she left a part of her everywhere she went. She will never be forgotten; her light will shine on forever.

Her memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. on Saturday, July 25^th, 2020 at The Grace Church on 137 Euclid Avenue. It will be attended by close friends and family.

Thank you to all who have been involved with the planning and arrangement of this service, we are forever grateful for you.

“Don’t think of her as gone away…
her journey has just begun.
Life holds many facets,
the Earth is only one.

Just think of her as resting from
the sorrows and the tears,
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.

Think how she must be wishing
that we could know today,
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.

And think of her as living
in the hearts of those she touched,
For nothing loved is ever lost…
And she was loved so much.”
