AMBERLY TOLPA On this day we are sad to announce the passing of my Princess PoohBear. After a very long and very courageous battle with cancer, Amberly has left us, and is now at peace. Amberly was born on January 4, 1995 and ever since that day, she has been a blessing. She was always a happy child and a very quick learner. Amberly moved into the Oakbank area when she was three years old, she attended Springfield Tiny Tots, before starting Kindergarten at Oakbank Elementary. Amberly loved school and loved to read. In November 2004, Amberly was diagnosed and that is when this beautiful young lady's life began to change. She proved to us all that this was just a little glitch in her life; she managed to do chemo treatments and still continued on with her schooling. Up until the end of the school year at Springfield Middle School, Amberly was still able to make honor roll. Amberly had a beautiful voice, you could hear here sing at any time of the day. She had a talent for hearing a song once, and being able to know all the lyrics. During Amberly's four-year struggle, she still managed to play school sports, and attend school functions. She had many friends, not only from school, but also from clinic, and camps. She was loved by so many; she touched our lives in a way you wouldn't expect from a 13 year old. Amberly was very wise beyond her years. We as her family couldn't be more proud of her and she will be forever in our hearts. The family would like to thank all of those who had dealings with Amberly, during her battle. Special thank you's go out to Dr. Pachal, Dr. McCusker, Cathy (you were her favourite), Wanda, Jeannie, Dawn, Cindy, and the rest of the staff at Clinic 5, and for those on CK5 who knew her. Amberly leaves behind her mother Nancie (Verne), her brothers Anthony and Johnathon, her Nonno and Nonna Nardella, her Auntie Fran (Stan) Coral, Chelsea, and Charmaine, her Uncle Paul (Sheila), Emma and Noah. Also numerous other family members on both sides of the family. Amberly also leaves behind her best friend Abigale, who stuck by Amberly through all of this. A gathering of family and friends will be held to celebrate her life. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Amberly's memory to the Rainbow Society, 303-1 Wesley Ave. Winnipeg. Goodbye my Princess, we love you forever, until we meet again, I love you more! GLEN LAWN FUNERAL HOME 982-7550
