Melanie Joy Joudrey (Houlihan)
July 13, 1969 – September 29, 2022
Melanie Joy Joudrey (Houlihan)
Melanie Joy Joudrey, age 53, loving mother of two children, passed away in the evening of Thursday September 29, 2022 after a courageous battle with cancer. Melanie was born on August 13, 1969 in Port Alberni, BC and grew up surrounded by a large family of 5 siblings. After high school, she moved to Victoria BC where she met Blair Joudrey and they were married August 22, 1992. Once Blair completed University they moved back to his home province of Nova Scotia and they eventually settled in Hatchet Lake, where they raised their beautiful children, Tyler and Helene Joudrey.
Melanie’s passions included cooking, baking and most importantly being a mom. She had a smile that would light up every room and her laughter that will resonate in our hearts forever. She was known to always go out of her way to help anyone she knew and her kindness was felt by all that knew her.
She is predeceased by her grandparents Ivy and Eldon Ellis, her father Michael Houlihan, her sister Lisa Ruffolo (Dino) and her fur-babies Benson and Jasper. She is survived by her son Tyler Joudrey, daughter Helene Joudrey, her Mother Faye Robinson (Art), her siblings Quinn Houlihan (Telma), Sean Houlihan (Cindie), Naomi Johannessen (Derek), Rachael Westley (Jay), and numerous nieces and nephews. She will also be lovingly remembered by close friends, who shared many special memories with Melanie over the years.
Mom, Melanie may you now rest as you are reunited with your sister Lisa. Until we meet again.
