Leanne Marie Avery
June 1, 1970 to September 24, 2023
Obituary
It is with great sadness that Leanne Marie Avery has passed away at 53 years old. Leanne was comfortable and lay to rest peacefully at her home with her family by her side.
Leanne has been fighting for the last number of years, starting in 2019, when she became quite ill, with a 5% chance of survival. Since then she has fought and worked tirelessly to become better until recently was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in August. Leanne filled every room she entered with her beauty, personality and her contagious glowing smile. Despite everything happening in her life, she always had a smile on her face and worried and cared about those who surrounded her before herself. Those who were fortunate to know her, heard stories or just crossed paths, knew the lasting impression she made on each and every person embodying what it meant to live, care, love and so much more. But Leanne’s greatest accomplishment were her children, Emily and Matt. She loved them more than words could describe, they’re the reason she pushed on so she could continue to raise, cherish and love them always.
Though Leanne is no longer with us, her stories, attributes and outlook on life will continue to live on through her companions, family and friends. Leanne is survived by her children (daughter) Emily McKim (Alan), (son) Matthew McKim (Leah), (partner) John Walsh and his daughter Ella, (parents) Roland and Beverly Avery, (siblings) Brent Avery (Lori) and Jane Davis (Brad), (nieces) Lauren, Beth, Sarah and Amanda, and (nephew) Nolan. Additionally, her former spouse and father to their children Andrew McKim. As well, leaving to mourn are her co-workers and work family at Regatta Dental.
Thank you to the medical professionals including Dr. Mike Hogan and the community health nurses that always embraced Leanne’s determination. We would like to especially thank Dr. Paula Walsh, Trudy Smith, April Adams and the whole 4NB nursing team.
Leanne will be laid to rest at Carnell’s Funeral Home, with a wake date of Wednesday, September 27th from 2pm-9pm and Thursday morning, September 28th from 9am-11am. A celebration of life will take place at Admirals Green, Pippy Park Golf Course on Thursday, September 28th from 6pm-10pm.
Leanne taught us all so many invaluable lessons that will stick with many for as long as they live. Her selflessness, attitude, determination, toughness and her ability to love was unmatched. The world is a better place having had her in it.

She was such a bright light as we had a great chat at the dental clinic last year as she was the same lovely soul.
My Sincere condolences to the entire family.

I was so sad to hear about Leanne’s passing. My sister was her friend and coworker and always spoke so fondly about Leanne. She was always greeted our family with such warmth and kindness when we visited the dental clinic.
We heard about her great strength and perseverance throughout the many challenges she had faced in the last few years. Thinking of all her loved ones at such a difficult time.
I was so saddened to hear of Leanne’s passing. She was not only my dental hydentist, but a friend as well. We would chat about our lives. She would tell me want was happening with her kids and I would tell her about my son. I could tell her anything and she would always have a positive thing to say to me. She fought her way back after her illness in 2019. She was indeed a fighter!!
My condolences to all her family! RIP Leanne!
Dear John – My sincere condolences to you and the family. I pray that Leanne’s soul rests in eternal peace. I pray for you to have the strength & courage to bear this great loss.

I’m very sorry to hear of Leanne’s passing. My sincere condolences to her entire family. We’ve known each other since we were teenagers and it was always so great running into each other or catching up at the dental clinic. I absolutely loved hearing updates on her beautiful kids which she shared with tremendous pride and love. She always remembered little details on my 3 kids from our previous conversations. Her warmth, smile and positivity were contagious. Leanne was very special and kind and I feel blessed to have known her.
I was so sorry to hear the news of Leanne’s passing. My heartfelt condolences go out to her family and friends. I spent many a visit in her chair and would request to be seen by her so we could chat, laugh, and talk about our respective families. She especially spoke glowingly about her children and was so proud of the young adults they have become.
I know how loved and respected she was by everyone that came in contact with her. I will truly miss her.

My deepest condolences to Leanne’s family. Leanne and I went to Harlow together and we were the only 2 in our group that didn’t have midterm backpacking through Europe plans so we teamed up and got a via rail pass and away we went.

We pray that her bright and shining example will be an inspiration for us all.

To Matt, Emily and the entire Avery Family,
I was so shocked and saddened to hear of Leanne’s passing. Leanne was my hygienist at Aberdeen Dental for many years prior to the illness that led to her leaving. We bonded over our mutual love of travel, theatre and our children; I always felt like I knew you, Matt and Emily, through all of the stories your mom and I shared.
Leanne was a beautiful soul with the brightest smile; heaven has gained a glorious angel. I know she went through so very much these past few years but she was, without doubt, a fighter and you two were her biggest inspiration. My heart goes out to you all…May she Rest in Peace!
To Leanne’s family – condolences on the loss of a beautiful soul, gone far too soon. She was a wonderful friend and role model to so many. She will be sorely missed by the many friends who’s lives she touched over the years.
Deepest sympathies,

Leanne was fun, loving and bright and I will always remember her smile. We spent many years together in elementary school and beyond and I am deeply sad to hear the news of her passing today. My heartfelt condolences to her family.
I was so sad to hear of Leanne’s passing. I first became friends with Leanne in junior high, and can still hear her easy laugh. I’m grateful that we were able to briefly reconnect last year. My heart goes out to her family and friends in this difficult time.

To Leanne’s family,
Leanne was my hygenist at Regatta Dental for many years. I would always ensure when I booked that it was Leanne I was seeing. She was such a lovely person. She was so warm and caring, as well as funny and genuine. And she talked about her kids and how proud she was of them ALL THE TIME! I felt like I knew Emily and Matt through her stories about their achievements and then her travels to see them.
She was so full of light and love. I can’t believe she’s gone.
She will be so missed by so many.
My deepest condolences.

A horrible shock… knowing Leanne since grade school, I recall her as a so very kind person full of joy and positive energy. I don’t know you but I send her entire family the biggest of hugs.
Reading through these messages of condolences portrays the loving, caring human that Leanne Avery was. I remember the early days at Xtreme hockey where the hockey parents would bond in between scrimmages, camps and power skating. It was there that Leanne showed us her true caring self. She has left a lasting impression. Thinking of friends and families of Leanne.

I was so saddened to hear the news today of Leanne’s passing, and also of her struggle in recent years. She was a bright light. I became a friend of Leanne’s in Junior High and we did have many fun times together. Although life took us in different directions and we lost touch, when I saw her at Costco a few years ago, she lit up, face like a shining star. What a beautiful energy she had. Sending strength to all her friends and family who love her dearly and still wish her here, although surely not suffering. Hoping Leanne’s light continues to find ways to reach you from where her bright spirit is now.
Emily and Matthew

Emily, Matt, John, and Ella, Andrew, Mr. and Mrs. Avery, Jane, Brad, Brent, and Lori-
Leanne was a childhood friend as you know, my dental hygienist and my neighbour. She always stopped by when walking the dogs or waved from the street- we often chatted and laughed about this and that and funny enough, we discovered each other at Winners more often than not. She was one of the most positive, loving, empowered, and strongest women I ever met. She was friendly with EVERYONE and she made everyone feel so welcomed and loved. She will never be forgotten. When it’s said, that we could all learn a thing or two from Leanne, this is so very accurate- if we all would live as she lived, the world would be such a happier calmer place. Pay it forward in her memory. RIP my beautiful friend. Till we meet again. ox
