It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Shae Opal Jonsson on Friday June 2, 2017, in Winnipeg, MB at the age of 20 years.

Shae was a smart and beautiful young woman whose smile and resilient personality would light up the room and lift up everyone in it.  She was a very caring person who will be missed by all her friends and family.  Shae lost her long struggle with addiction which she battled for some time.  May she finally find some peace.
