We are asking our community to come together for a family we love deeply.

Alex Garneau tragically lost her life on Thursday August 20th, leaving behind her husband, Jordan, and their two children, Josie, and Jackson.

She was a wife, a daughter, a sister, a friend, and the hockey mom. Those titles only begin to describe who she was.

She was the kind of person who was behind the scenes of almost every team and activity her kids were part of. She made the drive. She organized. She cheered. She made things happen. Her children are both incredible people and hockey players, and she had big dreams for them and the lives they will lead.

Alex was the friend who always had your back, the person you knew would show up when you needed her the most. She had a way of making people feel like they belonged all while having so much fun.

For some of us, she offered something that is difficult to find: family. She didn’t need to have known you your whole life to make you feel like you belonged in hers. She made room for people, and she supported them.

Her loss has left an unimaginable hole in the lives of Jordan, Josie and Jackson, and they are now facing a future none of them could have imagined.

We have created this fundraiser to surround them with love and practical support as they navigate the days, months and years ahead.

The funds raised will go directly to Jordan and the kids and will be used at their discretion for their immediate and long-term needs.

We can show up for them the way she always showed up for everyone else.

Please consider donating if you are able to support the Garneau’s.

Other ways to help: sharing this fundraiser, sending a message, bringing a meal and simply keeping this family in your thoughts.

She was fiercely devoted to her family, and she will be forever missed and remembered.

Let’s take care of Jordan, Josie and Jackson the way Alex took care of so many of us.
