BELANGER, Wendy

BELANGER, Wendy Charmayne (Hamilton) - In loving memory of Wendy Charmayne (Hamilton) Belanger, who passed away May 23rd. 2013, just as she lived, surrounded by the support and laughter of the love of her life, Claude Belanger, and her close family and friends. Claude loved Wendy at first sight and built a family together for 40 years. Born in Clinton, Ontario on July 11, 1953 to Connie (Bert St. Denis) and Gord Hamilton (pre-deceased). Raised in McCrea Heights, with brothers Chuck (Lisa Grespan) Hamilton of Vancouver and David Hamilton of Sudbury. An inspiration to her children, Robert (Yasmin) Belanger of Abu Dhabi (U.A.E.), and Michelle (Jamie) Brunette of Val Caron. Special “Gramma Honey“ to Luc and Mireille Belanger, and Malin and Nellie Brunette. Cherished daughter-in-law of Gaston and Lucienne Belanger, and sister-in-law of Fern Belanger (Joanne Chevrier), Yvon (Colette) Belanger, Pauline (Richard) Cayen, Monique (Guy) Boudreau, Andy (Jeannine) Belanger, Raymond (Lucie Cousineau) Belanger, and Nicole (Bernie) Robicheau. Surrounded, always, by the love and support of close friends who were like family, appreciating her unparalleled strength, resilience, easy smile and non-stop laughter. As a treasured aunt, confidante, coach, athlete, mentor, teacher, assertiveness trainer, children's rights advocate, Brain Tumour Support Group leader, and more recently Maison Vale Hospice resident, Wendy has positively impacted all she touched. She is clothed with strength and dignity and she laughs without fear of the future.
