La célébration de
Kathleen Louise « Katie » Leopold (nee Kelly)
15 février 1974 –
1 janvier 2018
Died peacefully at the Trillium Mississauga Hospital with her family by her side after a 12 month battle with Lymphoma. Until the end of her life, Katie remained resilient and tough in the face of challenging circumstances and continued to care most about the needs of others and most particularly, her family.
Katie leaves behind her husband Eric Leopold, and her three children, Emma, Mia and Harry, her father Gerald Kelly and siblings Kristie, James and Jonathan Kelly, 11 fine nieces and nephews, grandparents Nora and Wilf Reck and a supportive community of extended family, friends, colleagues and neighbours. Katie was pre-deceased by her mother Carol Kelly and her grandparents.
Katie lived in Canada’s biggest city but she was never far from the countryside of Ayr, Ontario where she was born and raised. She was a role model to her friends, family and colleagues and the principles of common sense, pragmatism, and honesty governed all that she did in her personal and professional life. Katie’s proudest accomplishment was to be Mom, advocate and chief cheerleader for Emma, Mia and Harry. She was also a very dedicated Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA, CA), and she enjoyed her role as the Chief Financial Officer of the York School.
Visitation will be held at the Turner & Porter Funeral Home, Peel Chapel (Highway 10 just north of the QEW) on Thursday January 4, 2018 from 6-9 pm Funeral Mass will be held at St. Clement Church, 409 Markland Drive, Etobicoke on Friday, January 5, 2018 at 10:00 am followed by a reception at the Markland Wood Golf Club at 245 Markland Drive.
