Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryTAWNIE AMBER BULA January 30, 1986 - September 2, 2012 Tragically on September 2, 2012 our beautiful daughter and sister was taken away from us at the tender age of 26. Tawnie will be sadly missed by her parents, Barb and Jerry and her brother, Brendan. Tawnie was a loving, mischievous little girl who was endlessly laughing and always had a smile. Tawnie had a profound love of animals and as a young girl aspired to be a veterinarian. She loved her pet dog, hamsters, lovebird and fish she kept throughout the years. Tawnie loved spending time at the Star Lake family cottage where we have many cherished memories of all the fun family times together. Tawnie loved to dance and was a creative artist. In her later years Tawnie was truly a free spirit. The girl with the beautiful, sparkling brown eyes, Tawnie had a kind and compassionate heart and always saw the good in people. Tawnie will be remembered and missed by uncles, aunts, and friends. She will be comforted in the arms of her Grandma and Grandpa Curtis and Aunt Carol. We love you Tawnie, we will be together again. Cremation has taken place and a private family service was held. We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, In death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, You did not go alone, For part of us went with you, The day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories Your love is still our guide. And though we cannot see you, You are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, And nothing seems the same. But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again.

Tawnie and I became friends while working at a telemarketing firm. We became fast friends. As time went on we became close but had a falling out. I regret that so much. I had the opportunity to be a better friend and I chickened out. She went through so much in her life. She was so much stronger than she thought she was. I admire that about her. I always will. Im sorry Tawnie. I know you your resting now. Love you girl. Be at peace. - Posted by: Torrie (Friend) on: Jun 14, 2016

My heart just dropped to my stomach and my throat just tightened. I can't believe this is true. Tawnie and I were very good friends around 2004 and even though we stopped communicating a bit after 2006 I never forgot her or our time together. I send my deepest, heart felt condolances to Barb, Jerry and Brenden. I pray that you find the strength to move on. This poor girl has been through alot and I hope peace finds her. RIP Tawnie, I dont think I'll ever forget you, even if I tried. Thanks for the memories. - Posted by: M.P (Old friend) on: Jan 02, 2014

I met Tawnie at the U of W, we had French classes together. Although our time in University was short we became fast friends and kept in touch throughout the years. I just found out today that Tawnie had passed last year. I am shocked and saddened. She was such a beautiful girl and was always there to lend an ear if you needed someone to talk to. Rest in peace girl. xo - Posted by: Hillary Gair (Friend) on: Sep 03, 2013

I was out of the country and just returned now. Today, I heard the news of my dear friend Tawnie. I'm in complete shock and disbelief. Tawnie and I went to school together and she even lived in my building. Her and I often hung out and talked about life. She always wanted to be loved by friend and family and after reading all these messages I'm sure she is smiling in heaven. She was about to meet my little baby girl but never got the chance. But I'm sure she is watching over her as an angel. I will really miss you Tawnie. You were a world of sunshine in my life! I love you. Bella - Posted by: Bella Haridy (Close friend) on: Feb 11, 2013

I have been away for 10 months and just got the news today...My heart is literally broken...Tawnie was the most amazing caring girl I ever met. I remember one time when I was upset and there was a group of us riding a bus...I got up and got off the bus to walk off my frustration...out of the whole group of people...Tawnie jumped off at the next stop and came to make sure I was ok and cheer me up....I can't believe I didn't get to say goodbye.. - Posted by: Matt Aquin (Friend) on: Dec 18, 2012

Can't believe it. I only met Tawnie a handful of times but she was such a gorgeous girl who had a smile from ear to ear each time I saw her. My heart hurts knowing that she is no longer with us. The world definitely lost a beautiful person inside and out. My condolences to her family. May you rest easy Tawnie. <3 - Posted by: Kerri () on: Oct 28, 2012

As the tears pour down my face, I am deeply saddened and distraught by the untimely passing of one of the sweetest persons I have ever met. Tawnie was the most beautiful girl inside and out, and my heart hurts knowing I will never get to hear her laugh again. Although she is in a better place, I can only thank God that I was gracious enough to go through life with the opportunity to cross paths with someone as wonderful as you. I’ll miss you and love you forever. God bless. - Posted by: nigel jackson (friend) on: Sep 11, 2012
