Manon was one of the most caring and genuine individuals I've ever met. The world will sorely miss her presence.

Je viens d’apprendre ce matin le décès de Manon 😢 Elle a été ma professeur de coiffure en 2010-11 à Langford BC. Une personne douce et joyeuse 💕
Ma rencontre avec Manon fut brève le temps de mon cours, les discussions de coiffure et de la vie en général que nous avions étais très agréable. Je me souviendrais de Manon comme un rayon de soleil ☀️

Mes sympathies à tout la famille et amis💐

Chère Manon, je garderai une place précieuse dans mon coeur pour toi. Bien que le but de nos rencontres était ma coupe de cheveux, j’avais plus hâte d’aller passer quelques heures avec toi pour jaser et être avec toi. Tu étais tellement à l’écoute, rassurante, humaine, empathique et aussi facile à faire rire! Étant conjointe militaire francophone, tu étais un point d’ancrage pour nous, les conjointes francophones vivant dans un milieu anglophone. J’espère que tu connaissais l’importance de ton rôle.
Barett, I don’t know you personally, but she was talking about you with so much love in her eyes. My deepest condolences to you and your family. Véronique ❤️🕊️

I had the privilege to know Manon, her passion for her work and the love she had for her family, was undoubtedly immense. She was someone to be admired, as her kindness, compassion, and love was unmatched and very rarely heard of. She will be dearly missed, and never forgotten as her star shines ever so bright. Merci Manon, we will see you again.
