  • Notes 
    • SNELL, Heather Ann (nee McRuer) "That's it - that's all - I'm goin' home" And on a snowy Saturday morning, February 12, 2011, home she has gone. Heather Ann Snell, born August 10, 1962 as Heather Ann McRuer, is the cherished wife and forever love of Bob Snell and loving mama of Ben and Alicia, Stu, Meghan and Rosa. Heather is the amazing "youngest" sister of Lynn and Bill, Mary and Pete, and Doug and Beth. She is the daughter of the late Barbara and Gordon McRuer, who are waiting with open arms. Heather is dearly loved by many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and in-laws. An inspiration to an entire community, Heather shared her love of life, and of family and friends with everyone she encountered. And with music in her heart, an incredible spirit and fabulous sense of humour, not to mention the occasional pair of killer heels, our fashionista taught us all lessons on how to live and love. She lived her life with a grace and style that is unmatched, while providing a continuing commentary to her family and friends which was founded in her belief that God is love - and answers about what to do are not too hard if you can remember that. And so, as Heather would have us do, we ask you to "pay it forward", be it with a random act of kindness or a donation to the charity most meaningful to you. We invite you to visit with Heather's family at the Ayr Chapel, Wm. Kipp Funeral Home , 183 Northumberland St., Ayr on Monday 7-9 p.m. and Tuesday 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. Funeral Services will be held to Celebrate Heather's life at Knox United Church (92 Northumberland St., Ayr) on Wednesday at 11: 00 a.m. Spring Interment Ayr Cemetery. Donations to Lyrical Lines would be appreciated. Online condolences or donations may be arranged through www.wmkippfuneralhome.com or by contacting Wm. KIPP 519-632 8228
