Obituary
BREE LYN TIFFIN
August 12, 1974 – November 3, 2024
Bree Lyn Tiffin left this world reluctantly, early Sunday morning, November 3rd at Kensington House Hospice. There was so much more she wanted to accomplish. Leiomyosarcoma extinguished a bright light, a free spirit, a loving daughter/sister, a great friend and vibrant, genuine human.
Born in Prince Albert on August 12, 1974, Bree, a first born child, felt she had to be responsible, organized and ambitious. She often teased her brother that she paved the way for his «easy ride».
Bree was funny, witty, with a crazy off the wall sense of humor that sometimes got her in trouble. When applying for Journalism school her interviewer wondered where the name came from. She quipped, «Oh, my parents named me after a prostitute.» (It’s true! We loved the name of Jane Fonda’s character in Klute) When the interviewer didn’t crack a smile Bree was convinced she had blown her chances.
Her first job in TV was with Utopia Cafe in Regina; then a plum internship with Discovery Channel in Toronto, which resulted in a job offer. Always a prairie girl at heart, she packed her bags, leaving the «land of the living skies» behind and headed off to the big city in her Honda Prelude.
Bree’s determination, attention to detail and work ethic resulted in her becoming an Emmy nominated senior media executive and innovative content producer. Among her many successes (Late Night Eats, Vintage Tech Hunters, History in the Making, Custom Built, Disaster Decks, Rude: Where Are Our Manners) she’s especially known for Beyond Corner Gas: Tales from Dog River (2005), Decked Out (2011) and Property Brothers Forever Home (2019).
In spite of the continuous rounds of drugs, chemo, radiation and endless appointments, Bree focused on positivity and gratitude. She was unfailingly kind and appreciative to everyone. She ate healthily, walked regularly, (especially cherishing time at the beaches), journaled, meditated and took art therapy classes online. Her aim was to get back to the job she loved at Scott Brothers Entertainment, to spend quality time with her family and friends and to grow old gracefully.
Bree was given a painting several years ago with the caption, «Sassy, classy and a bit smart assy!» That’s our Bree in a nutshell!
Bree will forever be in the hearts of her parents, Rick and Aileen Tiffin (Prince Albert Sk.), her brother Shawn (Ottawa), her favorite aunt, Anne BaYin (friend Geordie, Toronto). We truly cannot grasp life without her.
Also mourning her passing; her wonderfully supportive friend of 35 years Rob Lokinger (Suzanne), Elizabeth St.Philip (George), her «sister» for 25 years and newly found friend Susan Yoon; her lovely aunt Charlene Horseman (Garnet, Ft.Qu’Appelle), uncles Ian Logie (Delta, BC) Dennis Tiffin (Salt Spring Isl. BC) Gary Tiffin (Donna Saskatoon, Sk.) and many more friends, co-workers and cousins.
Bree considered herself fortunate to be under the capable, compassionate care of Dr. Abdul Razak, Maddy Phillips and Dr. Harleen Toor at PM/Mt.Sinai hospitals and more recently Dr. Ciara Whelan. Thank you all.
Her Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, November 30th at 1:30 pm at the Cardinal Funeral Home – Bathurst Chapel (366 Bathurst St.) with Rev. Nora Vedress (Prince Albert, Sk.) officiating.
