It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Félicité Kanzayire Murangira, on Monday, November 6th, 2023.
She is survived by her loving husband, Geoffrey Murangira, married for 40 plus years. She was a loving mother to Bruce, Linda, Robbin and Pamela, and an amazing grandmother to her six granddaughters, Alyzah, Olivia, Tamiah, Lea, Naomi and Kenza. She was also the dear sister to Esther (deceased), Thadée, Gaétan, Thérèse, Alexis (deceased), Alphonse and Josephine.
Félicité was the true definition of an angel on earth and she will always hold a special place in all of our hearts. She was a unique soul, a selfless woman who dedicated her entire life to serving others and making the world a better place. She deeply impacted the lives of many.
Félicité carries with her a long list of achievements and prestigious awards as a community leader and champion, but what meant the most to her was the on-the-ground community work that she tirelessly committed herself to everyday for more than 30 years. She had a heart of gold and gave generously of her time and efforts to her community. Despite achieving great success, Félicité remained humble. She was the kind of person that was simply too good to be true.
As a Mother that one could only dream of, she provided the utmost unconditional love and instilled great values in her children and grandchildren. Félicité, our angel, has been called home and will leave a painful hole in all of our hearts, but she would want nothing more than her legacy and community work to be carried out through all of the lives that she has significantly impacted. Félicité will live on forever within the hearts of those whom she has helped and through her loving family.
Visitation will be held at Beechwood National Memorial Centre 280 Beechwood Avenue, Ottawa, on Tuesday, November 14th, 2023 from 4:00pm to 8:00pm.
Funeral Service will be held on Wednesday, November 15th, 2023 at 1:00pm with burial and reception to follow. For those unable to attend in person, the 1:00pm Funeral Service will be livestream. Please click here to view: https://v2.forever.link/j/yt/07059

Ma Fely, oui tout a été dit…mais pour moi les mots n’arrivent pas à traduire et refléter correctement l’ampleur du vide immense que tu nous laisse. Ma seule consolation est que j’ai pu te voir et te parler la veille de ton grand voyage. Plus de quatre décennies d’une amitié forte et inébranlable…May your kind and lovely care for others be rewarded in heaven. Rest In everlasting Peace my special sister! I pray that God comfort the family in these tough times! Mukomere disi we!
With my deepest love, Thérèse
