LISA MICHELLE FALLIS (nee HAMILTON) Peacefully at Grace Hospice in the early morning hours of Friday, May 7, 2004, Lisa Fallis, aged 37, passed away surrounded by her family. Lisa was born in Brandon, MB on August 18, 1966 to Gale and Ollie Hamilton and grew up in Heritage Park in Winnipeg where she made life-long friendships. Lisa was an inspiration to all. Her sense of humour, gentle kindness, strength and love carried all who knew her. After defeating breast cancer in September, 2003, Lisas cancer returned in her brain in early 2004 and continued to spread throughout her body until the time of her passing. Lisa leaves to mourn her husband, David Fallis, who she met while both were employed at the Grace Hospital. They enjoyed 15 years of marriage along with many special memorable times as a family. Lisas true pride and joy were her two children, Jaclyn (14) and Ryan (12). Driving and attending their activities, days at the beach, shopping trips and movies, all brought a smile to her face. Lisa also enjoyed walking, reading, spending time with friends and her many years as a homemaker and in retail. Lisa will be greatly missed by her husband, David; children, Jaclyn and Ryan; grandmother, Eileen Wright; her parents, Gale and Ollie Hamilton; special aunt, Noreen Templeton (Jeff) brother Brad Hamilton; sisters, Terry Wiens (Les, Jarrad, Dana), Kim Karlstrom (Darrel, Devin, Drew and Megan), Lorie Hamilton (Rory) sisters-in-law, Wendy Stewart (Donnie), Val Choquette (Denis) brothers-in-law, Larry Fallis (Linda), Delton Fallis (Linda), Doug Fallis (Sherry) a special niece, Marcy Platt and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and friends. The family appreciates all the love and support from their families and many close friends too numerous to mention. Also to the doctors, nurses, staff and volunteers at CancerCare, Health Sciences Centre and Grace Hospice. A celebration of Lisas life will be held at Sturgeon Creek United Church, 207 Thompson Dr., St. James on Monday, May 10 at 2:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Lisas memory to Salvation Army Grace Hospice, 260 Booth Dr., Winnipeg, MB R3J 3R5.
