Nathalie Louise Lalonde

Passed away peacefully in Ottawa on Tuesday, May 7, 2024; age 49. Loving mother of Maxwell and Noah Anderson. Cherished daughter of Denis and Bonnie Lalonde and beloved sister of Kimberly St-Laurent (David). Nathalie will also be missed by her nephews Caleb, Éli, Victor, Théodore and by her many relatives and friends.

Nathalie struggled with many ailments throughout her life, beginning with infantile juvenile arthritis, culminating in a stroke at the age of 45. She was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension and more recently COVID infection and pneumonia. These past few weeks she has been surrounded by her family, her parents, her sister and her two sons.

You are now pain-free, Nathalie.
