Courtney will be sadly missed by many many cousins and friends. She was a student a Seneca College, President of the Seneca Indigenous council, a student ambassador, a tutor, and a group leader. She always made time for people, especially if they were in need. She acknowledged everyone with her warm hugs, smiles, and a very contagious laugh. Throughout her life she suffered from arthritis, but in her own pain she always found light to carry on and she did. As she would say it “I’m a pro on crutches” – and that’s how she would show up no matter what. That’s who she was; always brought everyone together.” She will be sadly missed.
