Elssy Villeneuve Obituary
Elssy Villeneuve
July 21, 2009 – October 28, 2024
It is with heavy and broken hearts we announce the passing of Elssy Villeneuve in Red Deer, Alberta at the tender age of 15.
Goodbyes hurt the most when the story was not finished.
Elssy will forever be cherished by her dad, Stephane Villeneuve; mom, Stephanie Martel-Vien; sister, Krissy Villeneuve; her large extended family in Quebec; and her beloved dog, Shadow and many friends.
Elssy was predeceased by her step brother, Michael Lachance and her faithful companion, Keisha.
Elssy was young and vibrant with a creative mind and a passion for life that touched everyone around her. Elssy was known for her crafting spirit, love of the outdoors, and adventurous pursuits, including fishing, hunting, and riding a dirt bike. As a good student and avid reader, it led to nurturing Elssy’s diverse interests, which included a deep appreciation for all music, anime, and cosplay.
Elssy had a remarkable ability to put others before herself, offering comfort and support to those in need. With a big heart and motherly nature, it shone through; in her willingness to cook for others and volunteer at an animal shelter, where Elssy shared a love for animals and a strong commitment to helping others.
Independent and self-driven, Elssy knew exactly who she was and embraced individuality with grace and courage. She loved her family deeply and respected those around her, a devoted daughter and a true “daddy’s girl,” embodying all the qualities of kindness and compassion, leaving a lasting impact on all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Elssy’s spirit will forever be remembered, and Elssy’s legacy of love, creativity, and kindness will continue to inspire those left behind.
In Elssy’s memory, donations may be made to donation made to an Animal Shelter of your choice.

I am so sad to learn of Elssy’s passing. She was a lovely young woman with a quirky sense of humour. I recall her speaking fondly of her sister. I will remember her love of reading; thanks to her enthusiasm, we were able to cover several novels in class. She told us stories about her cherished pets. Elssy had a natural sense of empathy and justice, and she always took the side of the underdog. At times she even empathized with the villain in our stories! Rest in peace, Elssy. You will be missed.
