The Ottawa community is grieving the heartbreaking passing of Makena White, whose life was tragically cut short. Her death has left family, friends, and loved ones in deep sorrow, struggling with the loss of someone so young and full of promise.
SUPPORT THE FAMILY - GOD BLESS YOU
Makena was remembered as a kind, intelligent, and compassionate soul, known for her radiant spirit and ability to uplift those around her. Friends describe her as someone who lived authentically, offering support and encouragement to anyone in need.
Born and raised in Ottawa, she had a love for the outdoors, creativity, and self-expression through art, music, and writing. Her gentle presence left a lasting impact on everyone she encountered.
Although she faced private struggles, her family hopes her story will inspire open conversations about mental health and encourage those in need to seek help.
Makena’s absence leaves an irreplaceable void, but her memory will live on through the countless lives she touched. A memorial service will be held in her honor, with loved ones gathering to celebrate her life.
In lieu of flowers, the family encourages donations to mental health and suicide prevention organizations to support others facing similar challenges.
