Joann Elizabeth Marnica
April 22,1960 - September 2, 2023

With extremely heavy hearts, we wanted to share that our mother Joann Marnica passed away peacefully on September 2nd 2023.

My mom was so kind and so loving and deserved better than the cards she was dealt, but we made the best of it.

She gave us everything she could, and I hope she felt that we did the same for her.

May she be able to rest in the sweetest peace, free from Huntington’s Disease.

We will be celebrating her life privately with our family and if she meant something to you feel free to honour her memory here:

Thank you,

Mike, John and Natalie.

P.s. if you’re calling or messaging me and I don’t get back to you for a while, please don’t take it personally. 🙏

Rest in Peace Mary 🙏

Mary was one of my longtime chair yoga students. I pretty much saw her every week for the past six years, aside from when I was off a few months for maternity leave.

While I was away, she was diagnosed with cancer, and it was very fast decline from there.

I was happy to be able to spend some time with her again, and bring Isabel when I got back.

She didn’t get out much, but she did come out to this event to see me and the baby. It was the last time I saw her.

I love my job teaching around different retirement residences, but it is really hard to say goodbye to so many people. when they don’t show up for class, I don’t always tell whether they’re out of the building or they’ve passed on.

I’ve learned over the years to not ask any questions until class is over, so I can avoid having to teach with a heavy heart and teary eyes.

I hope wherever she is, she’s not suffering anymore. Rest in peace, my friend. 🙏

Happy Mother’s Day!

From my family to yours 💕

Super grateful for these women!

This week Isabel and I had a visit with our midwife team from

I can’t express how much their care and knowledge helped me get through this pregnancy and birthing process!

If you’re an expecting mama & need some support, I highly recommend getting in touch with the West End Midwives team. We’re so grateful 💕
