It is with profound sadness our family announces the peaceful passing of Nely Pereira, after a short but heroic battle with cancer, on Thursday, May 2, 2024, in her 55th year. Cherished daughter of Germana and the late Jose Pereira. Much loved sister of Isabel (Liz) and Sandra. Nely will be missed by so many for her smart, funny and compassionate spirit. Nely brightened so many lives with her positive and loving nature. Even during her illness, she made everyone around her smile. Her generous and committed soul connected closely with nature and all of its animals and creatures, both great and small.

Friends may call to celebrate Nely’s life at the Turner & Porter Butler Chapel, 4933 Dundas St. W., Etobicoke (between Kipling & Islington Aves.) On Saturday, May 11, 2024, from 2-5 p.m. For those who wish, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society, the Daily Food Bank, or to the Nature Conservancy of Canada.
