Michele Pleasance passed away on February 8, 2016 peacefully with her family by her side, at the age of 51. After a valiant fight with Breast Cancer in 2010, Michele’s battle resumed in October 2015 with Stage 4 Breast Cancer. Her strong will to live, unwavering faith in God, and the love and prayers of family, friends, and many supporters carried her through 4 more months of her exhausting battle.
Michele was born on June 26, 1964 in Welland, Ontario to Noreen Kehoe and the late Frederick Kehoe. Michele leaves behind her loving husband Peter, her children, Matthew & Amy Armstrong and Cameron and Amanda Pleasance. Michele also leaves behind her brothers, sister and their spouses; Brian (Susan), Shawn (Melanie), Colleen (Peter) and Eric (Kristy). Her oldest brother Stephen has been waiting in heaven for her for the last 3 years. Michele will also be remembered by her mother in law Judy, brother in laws Paul (Carol) and Phillip. She will be greatly missed by many nieces, nephew, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and co workers at HP, where she worked for 30 years.
Known for her ease in frequent conversation with even total strangers, some may be surprised to learn of the extreme shyness of her youth. Yet even as a child, she possessed a contagious smile and an entertaining sense of humor. Throughout her life she maintained a sweet and simple demeanor that won the trust and hearts of many. Her signature gift of joy, shown through her constant smiling, laughter, and joking around will never be forgotten.
