Obituary of COURTNEY LAINE CLYDE
COURTNEY LAINE CLYDE
(nee Dvorak)
In the early morning hours of September 17, 2016 our precious Courtney Laine peacefully passed away cradled in the arms of God with her parents at her side. She had courageously and valiantly battled lymphoma for many months.
Courtney was born on February 14, 1982, a beautiful baby full of life and joy. As she grew she spread happiness wherever she went, she lit a room with her endless energy and free spirit.
Courtney was a kind, capable young mother and wife who always put the needs of others before her own. She was so much to so many people. She loved deeply and fully her children Jessica and Rylan, you could see the pride in her eyes whenever she was with them or she was speaking of them. All her energy and passion was spent caring for her family and her home. The deep connection she had with her children was beyond measure. She was a fierce advocate for children on the Autism Spectrum being involved in numerous advocacy activities.
She thoroughly enjoyed her work at Seven Oaks General Hospital, she had worked on the surgical unit, in the emergency department and on family medicine. She thought so highly of her colleagues and made many friends there.
The loss of our Courtney is incomprehensible. She was our bright light, our teacher, and our inspiration. The magic that was Courtney will live on in all of us forever.
Left to celebrate her life are, her husband Steven and their beautiful children Rylan seven years and Jessica four years. Her mother and father, Ken and Marilynne Dvorak, her siblings Christopher, and his wife Erica (Alex and Ethan), Dustin, Tyne, and her partner Brad (Leah), her grandmother, Muriel Dvorak, and numerous cousins. In- laws Gordon and Jeannette Clyde. Steven’s siblings Jason and wife Heather (Brody and Molly), Brad and wife Martha (Evelyn and Alistair). Many dear friends and colleagues.
Courtney was predeceased by their baby girl Abigail, grandparents, Gordon and Clemence Bowen, her grandfather Leopold Dvorak, her great grandparents Leopold and Anna Dvorak, Harry and Dorothy (Nanny) Ellison, Angelique and Anthony Ducharme, Charles and Lillian Bowen.
