It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our precious daughter Lori Brix, resident of Grande Prairie, on Sunday, March 10, 2019, at the UofA Hospital in Edmonton, AB, at the age of 49 years.
Lori was born in Grande Prairie, AB, on May 16, 1969. She graduated from Grande Prairie Composite High School. She went on to pursue her nursing career. For the past 26 years, she was employed at the QEII Hospital as an RN, advancing to Clinical Coordinator. She was a very kind, loving person with a beautiful smile. She was great at organizing family events and she loved entertaining.
Lori will be sadly missed by her loving husband Arnold; sons Evan and Ian; parents Bernie and Kerry Chmilar; brother Gerald (Monica) and their children Thomas, and Hayley, Reanna; brother Steve (Ingrid); and her little dog Jack.
A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, March 23, 2019, at 1:00pm, at Grande Prairie Alliance Church (15502 102 St.).
Memorial donations may be made to The Lung Association (Box 4500 Stn South, Edmonton, AB, T6E 6K2).
Just thought I'd leave a note as it's 3 years today you've been gone. I still think about you, Lori - I wish we had gotten to have more time with you here with us. You may be gone, but you are far from forgotten. Thank you for being such a wonderful person.

May the good Lord surround you with his presence, guide you through this hardship and know he is with you.
I met Lori at the QEII, Iâ??ve only known her just shy 2 yrs but she sure impacted my learning experience in the medical field! Just her presence was calming & soothing. I went to Rapid Rounds because of her! Always smiling always happy, but you knew her â??momâ?? voice!
My prayers are with you and I know she is dearly missed ❤️

Lori was such an unforgettable person. My first position as a new SLP was at the QEII for five months, and when I came back a year and a half later in a permanent position, Lori was one of the people who I recognized immediately. Who could forget her incredible hair! When I thought of 3N, I immediately thought of Lori. She was my go-to person whenever I was on that floor - if she didn't know it, no one would! Rapid rounds were never rapid with her, but they also never felt excessively long. I appreciated how each patient was given enough time and attention from her, every single day. I miss seeing her on 3N and at stroke rounds - the corner of the conference room feels very empty without her there. I'm so incredibly sorry for your tremendous loss, but I have absolute confidence that Lori is already sitting up in heaven, and that she's immensely proud of her family and friends, and the beautiful celebration of life you held in her honor.
