GIACOMELLI _ Lindsay Rachel 1984 - 2005 Lindsay
Rachel Giacomelli (Lins) passed away at the Foothills Hospital ICU on
March 18, 2005 at the tender age of 20 years 9 months. Lindsay was born
June 18, 1984 in Red Deer, Alberta, the eldest daughter to Leslie and
Gerald Giacomelli, sister and dear friend to Nicholas (Nick, age eighteen)
and Stephanie (Steph, age fourteen). She was enrolled at the University of
Calgary in the dance program, and was pursuing her dream of dancing. She
started dancing at the young age of three, and aggressively pursued it.
Such a lucky person, to be going to school and pursuing a career in the
area of her love and keen interest. Lindsay was so dearly loved and the
pain of her passing is devastating. We are such a tight family, with so
many future plans and dreams in the works. There are no regrets to
Lindsay's life, no missing words, and no missed opportunities to hear "I
love you". She was strong to the very end, and only left us once she knew
we were going to be OK. One of her greatest dreams was to dance for
Disney, with an audition scheduled for April 6. Her future was all planned
out from travel to marriage. She leaves behind her soul mate Tyler Sande,
and their future plans together, including a wedding at the Wedding Chapel
at Disney World, and a ride to the Chapel in Cinderella's carriage. Her
smile and attitude was contagious. She brought joy and happiness to
everyone that she touched. Funeral Service will be held at Southwood
United Church (10690 Elbow Drive S.W.) on Wednesday, March 23, 2005 at
1:00 p.m. with the Rev. Drew Strickland officiating. Cremation to follow.
