Warrior Wall

Coleen Cunningham, May 18 2019, Coleen was a true fighter who battled Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) with incredible strength and courage. Despite the challenges she faced with PSP, Coleen remained a loving and caring woman who always put others first. She was a dedicated wife, mother, and grandmother who cherished her family and friends. Coleen's kindness and compassion touched the lives of many, and her memory will continue to inspire us.

Coleen's resilience and determination in the face of PSP were truly remarkable. She refused to let the disease define her, instead choosing to live her life to the fullest and make the most of every day. She was a role model to many and a source of strength for her loved ones.

Coleen's legacy is one of bravery and love. Her strength and fighting spirit continue to inspire us all as we work together to raise awareness and support for PSP research. She was a remarkable woman who embodied the best of what it means to be a fighter and a loving person. Her legacy will continue to inspire us all to never give up hope and to cherish the time we have with our loved ones.

Doug Murphy- On Tuesday, April 6, our beloved husband, father, brother, son-in-law, cousin and friend, left this world peacefully on his own terms, with his wife Lynn, son Sean, and daughter, Julia by his side and surrounded by the love of his family and friends.  Doug lost his speech early on from Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA) and then was later diagnosed with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) which affected his speech, walking, balance, eye movements, vision and swallowing.  Throughout the 8 years he battled these brain disorders he never lost his sense of humour, the twinkle in his eye or his ability to show his love through his eyes - a very brave feat for someone going through this debilitating disease. He decided that since he had so little influence over the everyday events of his life, he could at least control his end of life experience and made the courageous decision to leave this world with the assistance of MAID.

Camille Joseph Côté, In 2019 he was diagnosed with Primary Progressive Aphasia. In 2020 he received the devastating diagnosis of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP). Throughout the last few years, he continued to navigate these insidious illnesses with strength, humour, faith, and the love of his family and friends.
