Marc-Philippe Laurin, president of the CBC branch of the Guild, and his family are mourning the loss of Kelli Marilyn Simpson Laurin, who passed away on the weekend in Gatineau after a devastating illness. She had been ill since February.
Marc-Philippe and Kelli were best friends and partners in life. They were married 34 years ago and have two daughters, Genevieve-Renee and Erinne-Colleen.
A celebration of Kelli’s life will take place at 2PM on Friday May 25th at St. Stephen’s Presbyterian Church, 579 Parkdale Ave in Ottawa. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Canadian Cancer Society for liver cancer research, The Ottawa Food Bank or Les Grands Frères et Grandes Soeurs de l’Outaouais.
