Passed away at her home in Ottawa on Thursday, November 28, 2024, at the age of 67. Cherished daughter of the late Allan Ablett and Harriet Ablett (née Albers). Loving sister of David, Brian, Don and Dennis Ablett. She is also survived by her beloved cats Iggy and Leroy and her three gerbils. Heather was born at the Montfort Hospital in Ottawa and lived in Ottawa and the surrounding area for her entire life.
