Obituary

It is with profound sadness we announce the passing of Leah Margaret St. Aubin (nee Bradley) on Saturday August 6, 2022, 11:55pm at the age of 71.


Leah was an avid gardener and could transform any landscape to a flowery paradise. She spent countless hours "playing in the dirt", a practice continued by her daughter and grandson. Leah was never one to boast, instead the health of the plants she tended to did so for her. She loved watching the northern night skies from her front patio and called the north home for 47 years.


She retired from a long career at Manitoba Telephone Service where she met many kindred spirits. She was a kind and empathetic person, a thoughtful friend, loving wife and an excellent mother.


She is predeceased by her son Michael Laurent, her mother Edythe Bradley, her father Gordon Bradley, sisters Penny Lariviere, Lindsay Wakelin, and her brother John Bradley. She leaves behind her husband of 48 years Laurent St. Aubin and many family and friends.


She is survived by her daughter Zoë (Ryan Shand) and grandson Zev, one brother and three sisters. Thank you to Thompson General Hospital staff and to the McLeod and MacDonald family for their support during her final days.


As per her request there will be no service. The family asks in lieu of flowers sent, to plant flowers or a tree in her memory.


Do not stand at my grave and weep


I’m not there, I do not sleep


I’m a thousand winds that blow


I’m the diamond glint on snow


I’m the sunlight on ripened grain


I’m the gentle rain


When you awake in the morning, hush


I’m the swift uplifting rush


Of quiet birds in circled flight


I’m the soft stars that shine at night


Do not stand at my grave and cry


I’m not there, I didn’t die
