Obituary of Emily Lynn McKee

1996 - 2020

 

With great heartbreak, we announce the sudden passing of Emily Lynn Mckee on August 6, 2020.

 

Emily was born in Cranbrook, B.C., to parents Wendy McKee and Jamie McKee on June 12^th, 1996. She went to high school at Mount Baker Secondary and graduated in 2014. Emily enjoyed working as a server in the hospitality industry, because she got to meet great people.

 

Emily loved going for drinks with her friends, going out to hockey games, and making those cherished memories with family, that we will keep in our hearts forever. Emily loved doing gymnastics for many years. You could always find Emily in the water, she loved swimming.

 

Emily will be remembered for always making anyone laugh with her contagious outgoing, hilarious personality. Emily was a beloved daughter, sister, granddaughter, cousin, and friend.

 

Emily is survived by her mother Wendy, stepfather Wayne, sister Sarah, brother in-law Rob, cousin Chase and wife Kyla, and granny Penny.

 

Emily was preceded by her father Jamie and great granny Bernice.

 

Emily’s favorite quote that she had tattooed along her spine: “The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love and to be loved in return”.                                                          

 

We Love you Emily.

 

 

Memorial donations may be made in Emily’s honour to the Canadian Mental Health Association for the Kootenays 100-1000 21st Ave North, Cranbrook, B.C., V1C 5L9.
