Loving wife, mother, grandmother, and sister, Heather passed away peacefully at home in Ottawa on July 1, 2023, after a short battle with cancer. She was surrounded by loved ones. Born in Halifax on Nov. 22, 1961, Heather worked as a medical transcriptionist before retiring in 2018. She loved to play ukulele, sing, bike, and play tennis or pickle ball. Her favourite pastime was walking her dog Sophie (the girl she never had) in Stanley Park. Heather loved to cook and would occasionally meet her neighbours “at the fence” when she made extra. She also enjoyed long walks, philosophical conversations, and playing Thursday pool with “sister from another mister” Kathleen. Heather is predeceased by parents Austin and Shirley (Snow) and first husband Neil (Hesketh). She is survived by husband Chris, sons Ryan and Dylan (Hesketh), grandchildren Isabella, Maddison, and Samantha (Hesketh), brothers Brian and Gary, sisters Joanne (Parsons), Terri Lee (Arsenault), Michelle (Bland), and Danielle, and  pets Sophie and Big Bear. Cremation has taken place. In lieu of a conventional service, Heather requested close friends and loved ones join and walk through Stanley Park together in her memory (date to be determined). Donations in memory may be made to the Humane Society, Make a Wish Foundation, local food bank, or charity of choice.

Dear Chris, Ryan and Dylan & family,
We will remember Heather as being a kind soul, having a good heart, being strong-willed and independent-minded. When she spoke about all of you, she had a huge smile on her face. You made her very happy and very proud. Like you, we will miss her very much but know she has rejoined our family members whom she cared about and who cared about her. We know the heartache of her loss will never fully fade, but your many wonderful memories will carry you forward. You are all in our thoughts. Take care of each other… Gary & Margot

I am sorry Heather was taken much too early. She will live on in the faces of her sons, Grandchildren, memories and stories. It was always a pleasure to spend time with her when she came to visit Dylan and Amber and the babies. My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this hard time.

So sorry for your loss, Chris. I met you and Heather in Halifax when you were deciding to move to Ottawa. It looks like Heather loved Ottawa and made many friends there. Rest in peace, Heather.
