CHANTALLE FERGUSON It is with great sorrow and heavy hearts the family announces the passing of Chantalle Ferguson on August 18, 2013. Chantalle will be lovingly remembered and deeply missed by her mother Elaine, father Shane, sister Meagan, her grandparents, many aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and her beloved parrot Chipper. She was predeceased by her cherished Pepere and Uncle Lance. Chantalle was born on July 16, 1988 and arrived a beautiful, graceful, bundle of joy for her Mom and Dad. As a little girl, Chantalle had an adult sized passion for life. Always taking care for her little sister Meagan and younger cousins; she was expressive, affectionate, loving, kind and always ensured they were looked after. This gift carried on into her adult life. Chantalle's passion for life included her love of dance hip hop, jazz, and tap. However, none of these compared to her love of ballet. We have many fond memories of our bubbly, precious ballerina dancing throughout the house in her toe shoes. Chantalle was a creative soul who loved to read, sketch and write poetry. She loved the outdoors and looked forward to camping in the summer with her friends. Following her graduation from high school, she worked as a physiotherapy assistant. Chantalle's compassion, kindness and great sense of humour was the basis of many bonds she developed with the clients. A memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, August 23, 2013 at Glen Lawn Funeral Home, 455 Lagimodiere Blvd. I love you forever, I love you for always, As long as I'm living my baby you'll be. Sweetheart, just know you will always be with us. In lieu of flowers a donation may be sent to Osborne House. Family and friends may sign a Book of Condolence at www.glenlawn.ca.

  • very sorry to hear of your loss...our condolences, Dave, Petra and Family - Posted by: petra johnson (friend) on: Jan 10, 2014

  • Dear Elaine, Meagan and Shane. Being far away, and not much online, I only learned this past weekend about Chantalle's passing. I am so sorry that my comments reach you this late. She meant so much to me and the news hit very hard. Chantalle was the first person to welcome me when we moved to Eastmount in '95. She was also the last, but most important person that I hugged when we moved away in '97. The thousands of hours that I spent with her in your home, we danced, made videos, played games, enjoyed those simple pre-teen times. She was always exuberant, kind, and she was an amazing friend. Elaine, I will always be grateful for your "BSB, CNE, Diana" visit with us in 1998. My mom and I have such great memories of Chantalle from that trip - we all just laughed so much - she had a great sense of humour. And as I read all the tributes posted here, I can see that she touched so many people in a similar way. I know that I am so blessed to have been close to her, and I'll never forget her. As you danced in the light with joy, love lifted you. As you brushed against this world so gently, you lifted us. TC Ring - Posted by: Haley L. (friend) on: Dec 18, 2013

  • I went for physio today after being away for a few months, and had been looking forward to seeing Chantalle's smiling face. I was shocked to hear of her passing, and can only imagine that those closest to her must be suffering greatly and are missing her terribly. Her positive energy and great sense of humour were infectious, and it always brightened up my day when I saw her. She really was a special person, and sadly lost her life way too young. My condolences to all who were close to her. - Posted by: Alice (Physio. Client) on: Oct 31, 2013

  • Elaine & family, so so sorry to hear of your loss!! You're in my thoughts.......... - Posted by: Carol Cyr (Former co worker) on: Sep 09, 2013

  • I attended high school at Dakota with Chantalle. We were not fond of each other at first but later remained on good terms with each other. The last time I saw her I was looking for a job as a Health care aide at St boniface and she was very supportive of me. She was a very positive and uplifting person. My condolences to her family and friends. - Posted by: Shaun (friend) on: Sep 08, 2013

  • I went to junior high with Chantalle, and we shared the occasional dance class. We were friends once, but had not spoken in many years as often occurs over the ever changing teen years. I want to express my condolences to Chantalle's family and friends. I can see by the heartfelt writings of her that she touched many people and will be fondly remembered. I'm truly sorry for your loss. - Posted by: Kristin Klippenstein () on: Sep 07, 2013

  • I couldn't bring myself to put a comment here until now, I didn't want it to be true. I am always going to miss your constant chatter, your daily hug when you got to work and you telling me you love me. I loved you too, I loved you like a daughter, you made me laugh, smile, get angry and cry with you. I miss you so much Chicken Noodle, what am I going to do without you? I know you're safe now and not hurting, for that I'm grateful, you were one of a kind and I will never forget you. - Posted by: Lois (2nd Mom, friend, co-worker) on: Aug 31, 2013

  • For Chantalle's Family....Please accept my heartfelt condolences for the loss of your beautiful daughter. I was shocked and so saddened to hear of her passing. Chantalle was a friend of my kids and my granddaughter's mom (Sarah). I never saw her without a smile on her face, when she came to my home she always asked me how I was, she would sit and chat for a minute, and then move on to visit with my kids. And most recently she helped to arrange visits with my granddaughter, she was never too busy to talk to me when I called her, whether it was for a minute or an hour she always made time for me, and would always relay my messages, so I could pick up Aria. She was a beautiful girl with a beautiful soul. Again please accept my condolences. May she rest in peace. And may you one day find comfort in knowing she is at peace in God's arms. I am so sorry for your loss. Sincerely, Catherine - Posted by: Catherine Parent () on: Aug 28, 2013

  • Elaine & Shane: So very sorry to hear of your loss. May the warmth of your family and friends be an invaluable support right now. Very fond memories of being your neighbour and seeing both of those 'energetic' little girls grow up. And then one day having my own 'little girl' to introduce to you both. Anyway, my warmest thoughts and prayers to you both. Kevin. - Posted by: Kevin & Vicky deFreitas (family friend) on: Aug 26, 2013

  • Shane I am sorry for the loss of your precious daughter. The most beautiful gift in life is the birth of your children and the most devastating is losing a child. You watch them grow into the most beautiful creature God can make and when He takes them too young. you know He has something really big in store for them. She may not be here in body but she will always be watching over you spiritually until you meet again. - Posted by: Pam (Friend of Shane & Mika) on: Aug 26, 2013

  • Dear Elaine and family, My deepest sympathy for your loss. Words cannot make your sorrow any easier but they can show how deeply others care. - Posted by: Linda Ballance () on: Aug 24, 2013

  • I am so sorry to the family for your loss. Chantalle was one of a kind. She made you feel comfortable and it was easy to open up to her. I lost my 15 yr old 4 months ago and Chantalle drove me to the funeral. (Thank you for lending her the car. I heard about the craziness when she borrowed it for the concert.) After the funeral she continued to be supportive even though I didn't want it at the time. She was a big part of helping me face the loss of a child. I can never thank her enough except to let her mother know that there may be times when it hurts so bad and you might feel that no one understands I do share that pain and can offer the same advice Chantalle gave me. Get a diary or use your computer and put your thoughts into words so you're not overwhelmed. It helps to ease the pain and gives you something meaningful to read when you're feeling down. Again I am so sorry for all her friends and family. Chantalle you will be missed by so many. You are my friend and one of the best anybody could have hoped for. - Posted by: Chris Delaronde (Friend) on: Aug 24, 2013

  • Elaine - words seem inadequate to express the sadness I feel for your loss. I want you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

May the love and support of those around you help you through the days ahead. - Posted by: Theresa Spapens (former co-worker) on: Aug 24, 2013

  • Dear Family, my deepest sympathy with your loss. I knew Chantelle from the day she started as assistant, she was such a lovely person. We always had a talk together and joked sometimes.

My prayers are with you all. - Posted by: Nelly Spapens (Patient (Physiotherapist)) on: Aug 23, 2013

  • Shane - we were very shocked and saddened to hear of your loss. It is never easy to lose a loved one but we can't imagine the pain to lose a child.

  • Elaine & family – I am so very sad to hear of your loss. While it has been many years since I have seen Chantalle, I can tell from the tribute that she did not change as she grew up but became an even better version of the sweet, quiet and happy little girl in our catechism class. She was such a kind friend to her classmates and a thoughtful and wonderful sister to Meagan. May the knowledge that your love and support helped her to flourish and the memories of her dancing with joy somehow help you through your grief. - Posted by: Debbie Crease (former co-worker with Elaine) on: Aug 23, 2013

  • Beautiful words. I never had the pleasure of meeting your daughter, from the words expressed here, she sounded like a beautiful loving woman. Healing moves at its own pace. I know this is a difficult time. Be kind to yourself and take it one day at a time. I know your heart is aching and I am truly sorry for your loss. I know you are in amazing hands with your family. I hope I can also offer my support to you as you have always done for me and and all your coworkers. - Posted by: Kelly Greenaway (co-worker) on: Aug 23, 2013

  • Chantalle and I were very close during our high school years at Dakota. We did everything together with our friend, Michelle. People used to joke how all three of our names rhymed. She often came out to my cabin or just over to my house and she jokingly called me Dad her "Dad away from home". Sadly we drifted apart and I regret we didn't really talk all that often in recent years. My condolences to the family. They may not remember me but I remember them as nice people. - Posted by: Danielle (high school friend) on: Aug 22, 2013
