Pierrette Pretty

I’ve known your family my entire life having grown up around the corner on Ryder Street, going to Featherston PS with you, and even connecting in the past years. Your Mom was one of a kind. My heartfelt condolences to you all. Her light shines on in all of you. Cherish the memories. God Speed Mr Pretty and Marilyn, Jimmy, Donna and families. Hugs to you all.

Love from Beryl

My deepest and heartfelt sincere condolences. Growing up with Pierrette and Harold was like having a second family and that continued my whole life.
Not only did they visit us in Europe so many times, they were my go to on my travels to Canada. I will never forget Pierrette for her laughter, huge beautiful smile, and all of the hugs that I received from a young childhood, up to 19 September 2024 when I saw her and Harold the last time. I love you guys.
Please be strong, it’s going to be hard. But I know she’s not alone – she’s gonna have a blast with my mom and dad. Hugs and kisses from Northern Ontario. XOXO

She will be dearly missed. Rest in peace.❤️💕

A light ✨️ that will missed

Very sorry for your family loss.

Donna grief is the price we pay for love. And you are paying dearly now, we know. Our sincerest sympathy.

My heartfelt condolences to Jim, the family, and my partner, Grant. I only met Pierrette once, at their home, on one our visits to Ottawa. Her presence of laughter, joy, and unconditional love was completely disarming. Of course, I fell in love. I’m thinking of all of you as you relive memories and confront such a powerful loss.

My deepest condolences, Mr. Pretty, Donna, Jim, Marilyn & families. May you find peace & solace in the wonderful memories you shared. I have very fond memories of the times I spent at your house growing up.
Rest in peace Mrs. Pretty. 🙏🏻

Words cannot adequately capture the essence and the beauty that is Pierette Pretty, my other mother. I say “is” and not “was” because in my mind and in my heart she still lives full of love, life and laughter. Her kindness, her playfulness, her enthusiasm and creativity will never leave me. She is permanently etched in my heart. Every memory a blessing. I laugh when I hear her infectious laugh. I smile when she when she winks at me after saying something “risqué.” I relax knowing that I am loved by her for she loved freely and without judgement. She is not gone. She’s just in the other room. I can hear St. Peter laughing right now. Thanks Pete. I look forward to having you near me the remainder of my days.

Such a loving, vibrant and fun lady! I always admired the love she & Harold shared until the end! She was so proud of all her children & grandchildren and you all supported and cared for her in her battle with dementia. Hugs and prayers to you all as you mourn. A bright light has gone out in our world.
