Lisa Patricia Brittain
It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved sister Lisa Brittain. Lisa passed away peacefully with her boyfriend Jimmy and sister Shelby by her side on June 4th 2025.
Lisa was born in Saint John New Brunswick on September 4th 1967. Lisa is survived by her sisters Becky Tavernini (Eric), Debbie Shephard, Shelby Rowlinson (Kevin) and brother Sean Conrod, and son Mitchel Brandon and numerous nieces and nephews.
She had a special place in her heart for her boyfriend Jimmy Valcourt.
She was preceded in death by her mother June and her sister Krista.
Lisa was a kind and compassionate soul. Lisa loved to help others, she especially loved working with the elderly. Lisa enjoyed being creative by drawing and sketching in her spare time. Lisa attended church on a regular basis, this gave her a sense of community and belonging. She loved her little dog Brucie, as much as he loved her.
For everyone you knew Lisa, you gave your best. Now you are forever in the arms of the Lord, rest in peace our dear sister, you will be greatly missed!
A private family service will be held to celebrate Lisa and her memory.
My dear sister, you will be missed more than you know. We love you and are taking good care of your doggie Brucie. I love you ! 💕
Shelby
Missing you lots auntie Lisa! Luckily you are resting peacefully now and chatting lots with Grammy and auntie Krista…lots to catch up on <3
So Much love auntie I miss you.
Becky, Debbie, Sean, Shelby and Jimmy- I send you my deepest condolences. My heart has been aching since I heard about Lisa’s passing. I have been flooded with so many memories of our childhood. We experienced many “firsts” together. I loved Lisa. Lisa was my sister I never had when we were growing up in Red Head. We may of had disagreements or sometimes all out fights, but we always were able to make up and move on. Cause that’s what sisters do. I’ve never missed her more than I do right now! Lisa loved with all her heart. I loved that about her.
I need to share this memory of Lisa- she LOVED her baby sister Shelby! When I say baby sister I mean still can’t walk yet baby sister. Lisa would scrunch up her face and say how much she loved her sister and would hug her until she grunted. It was so endearing. It’s such a good fuzzy memory that only Lisa could stir up for me.
Rest in Eternal Peace
Katherine “Kathy” Little

Lisa – My Second Mom, My Friend, My Heart
Some people come into your life at just the right time, and for me, that was Lisa.
I met Lisa years ago in Lethbridge through Mitchell. She lived just around the corner, and would often stop by when my son Mason was still in kindergarten — he’s 17 now, can you believe it? Back then, I was a young mom just trying to find my footing, and Lisa became this incredible source of support. She’d bring over beautiful little gifts for my home and even help me keep things tidy when I was overwhelmed. She never made a big deal out of it — she just showed up, again and again, with love.
When I got sick, she was there — bringing Mason to school, volunteering in his class, doing what she could to ease my load. Lisa didn’t wait to be asked — she just knew. And she stepped in like a second mom, like a guardian angel walking around in yoga pants with a coffee in her hand.
We lost touch for a few years, as life tends to do that, but we found our way back to each other in 2019. I had moved to Edmonton and, to our complete surprise, we were living just a few blocks apart. It felt meant to be. We picked up like no time had passed — walking our dogs together, laughing about life, sharing stories, and watching her absolutely adore that little dog of hers. I’ll never forget watching the two of them share ice cream or a cup of coffee. It was hilarious and so sweet.
When I went through hard times again, Lisa didn’t hesitate. She opened her home to me more than once. She was the kind of woman who made you feel safe, seen, and loved — not with grand gestures, but with constant, quiet care. She made me do things I didn’t want to — like go to the doctor or get vaccinated — because she cared. She loved me in a way that only someone with a mother’s heart could.
And when I gave birth to my daughter Aaliyah, it was Lisa — along with Jimmy — who brought me to the hospital. It was Lisa who held my hand while Aaliyah came into the world. And from that moment, Lisa claimed her role proudly: Grammy. She was so proud to be Aaliyah’s Grammy.
At first, Aaliyah was stuck to me like glue and wouldn’t let anyone babysit her — not even Lisa. But Lisa never gave up. She told me I needed rest, and she would lovingly power through those early cries. I knew I could trust her. And as Aaliyah got older, I’d come home to little surprises — a new hairstyle, a smudge of makeup, and always, always, the telltale sign of chocolate. Whatever they got up to, it was magic. Because Aaliyah never wanted to leave.
Lisa was my go-to for everything. Shopping trips, fashion advice, vent sessions, moments of total breakdown — she was there. A soft place to land and a strong voice of reason. She didn’t sugarcoat anything. She told me when I was being ridiculous, but she never stopped cheering for me. She wanted me to love myself, especially when I didn’t know how.
Lisa was more than a friend. She was family. She was my second mom. She was Aaliyah’s Grammy. She was one of the most genuine, generous, and grounded women I’ve ever known.
I’m going to miss her more than words can ever explain. But I’ll carry her with me — in the way I mother, in the way I love, and in the strength I find in myself, because she taught me how.
I love you, Mama Lisa. Thank you for everything.
Lisa it’s just a good-bye until we meet again . You suddenly left us and it broke my heart . You will be always loved by everyone forever who are already missing your voice , kindness , smile . Protect and help your love Jimmy who’s missing your presence near him every day . Your family and also Mitchel . We lost a dear and special young woman and a wonderful girlfriend for my son . I met you many years ago with the same love for everyone. Now Lisa fly from a flower to another one little butterfly and spread on everybody all the seeds and sun you’re gone find on them in our hearts. Bye Lisa sweet Angel now in Heaven . Always will love you sweetheart. Charlene , Jimmy’s Mom
Lisa, we haven’t meeting many time but we have enjoy every moments. Rest in Peace ! 🌟 Up there you’ll probably meet Jimmy’s father and grand’father. We will keep you in our prayers and we will always remember you. You’re now Jimmy’s angel 👼, keep an eye on him.
Our deepest condolences to you Jimmy and all members of Lisa’s family. Be strong in these hard days, we will be thinking of you.

Ginette Valcourt and Michel Veilleux 🫶💐
To her dear family and to my brother,
My heart is with you during this time of deep sorrow.
Lisa was more than a sister-in-law — she was a light.
A loving, giving soul, always ready to help, always present with her full heart.
Her joy for life was contagious, her kindness unforgettable.
May we hold onto her smile, her laughter, and the countless moments she gave us.
Her spirit will live on in every act of love and joy we share.
I am grieving with you, and I am here — with all my love.
I’m deeply saddened to hear about the passing of my dear friend Lisa. We shared so many amazing memories together, our friendship was filled with laughter, tears and even disagreements. I’ll always cherish the time we spent together. Though we drifted apart over the years, I’m grateful we reconnected, and I’ll never forget her kindness, compassion, and infectious laugh. My heart goes out to her loved ones during this difficult time. RIP Lisa, you’ll be missed dearly.
