Obituary of Alyson WOLOSHYN
Please share a memory of Alyson to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Alyson Leigh Woloshyn of Calgary, Alberta, formerly of Kitchener, Ontario, passed away peacefully at the Rosedale Hospice in Calgary surrounded by loved ones on May 27, 2012 at the age of 35 after a courageous and dignified battle with brain cancer.
Alyson completed her bachelors degree at University of Waterloo in 2000. She followed her partner, Jared, to Calgary in 2003 where she worked at the University of Calgary, most recently as the director of integrated client services. Since her diagnosis in May 2009, she advocated for brain cancer research, and raised over $50,000 for the Alberta Cancer Foundation that contributes to a cancer research fellowship in her name. In addition, a leadership award has been created in her name at University of Waterloo.
Alyson will be dearly missed by her partner Jared Long; her parents, Russel and Donna; her brother Cameron (Melani); as well as countless other family members, friends and colleagues.
A private family Funeral was held, and Memorial Services will be held in both Calgary and Kitchener at a later date. For more information visit: www.alysonwoloshyn.com.
