It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of our dear wife, mother, daughter and sister, Sydney Leigh Walpole on Friday, April 15, 2022 at the age of 35 years.
Sydney is survived by her loving husband, Daniel Walpole; daughter, Danni Walpole; son, Devon Robert David Tomach; mother, Linda Fox-Mellway; father David Mellway; brother, Kyle Mellway (Gabrielle Masciarelli) and their son Owen Mellway; biological family, Donald and Shawn Belisle, Robert Belisle (Mackenzie Belisle), Stephen Belisle (Elena Cope) and Jennifer Belisle (Adrien McAllister) along with numerous extended family and friends.
Growing up Sydney attended Lake Bonavista Elementary, Nickle School, Milton Williams Jr. High, Lord Beaverbrook High School and St. Mary’s University where she worked on her English Major. She also was an amazing basketball player as a child and later enjoyed playing softball. Sydney was a very hard worker but also loved her clients and owned her own cleaning company for 10+ years. She loved to read, music was her life, she loved being outdoors and was an avid attendee of the Shambahla Music Festival. Daniel and Sydney were married on July 28, 2012 in Cranbrook, BC and have been together for 17 years which shows above all, Sydney loved family more than anything else along with their dog, Pagoda. Sydney especially adored her daughter Danni, and was an excellent mother. They could always be found playing, reading and on outings together. We will miss her very much and she will live on in our hearts forever.
A Memorial Service will be held on Friday, April 29, 2022 at 2:00pm at Fish Creek United Church (77 Deerpoint Rd SE, Calgary).
