Amie left us tragically and suddenly after a very short, acute illness. Survived by her loving and devoted husband Tristan and their precious 14-month-old son, her pride and joy, Jordan.
Amie was predeceased by her mother Laura and leaves behind to grieve her dad and step-mom Frank and Jane Bourree, sisters Andrea (Dave), Vicki (Darrin), Jill, Lisa, Samantha, brother Tom (Pam), Mother and father-in-law Libby and Don Urquhart, sisters-in-law Sommer, Lesha and brother-in-law Marshall (Megan) Urquhart. Also, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews too numerous to mention but all who were also so important to her.
Amie was a one of a kind, optimistic and cheerful person with an uncanny talent for turning lemons into lemonade. She had a huge heart and loved openly and totally. She loved to sing and cook, sharing both with everyone. She loved her dog Chi Chi, often walking him along Dallas Road.
She had recently returned to work at the Victoria Fire Department, a job she loved, after her maternity leave. She also spent many happy years working with the Victoria School District (Monterey Middle School / SD #61).
Amie, your star will shine forever bright. Your family, friends and colleagues will miss your warmth, enthusiasm and sense of humour. We will honour your spirit by loving harder, laughing louder, and treating each other with kindness.
The family wish to thank, from the bottom of our hearts, all the staff of The Royal Jubilee Hospital for their professionalism and care while looking after Amie. We also are deeply grateful for the kindness and words of support we have received from others.
A Celebration of her Life will be held on Saturday, January 12, 2019, from 2:00 to 4:00 pm in the Sequoia Centre at McCall Gardens, 4665 Falaise Drive, Victoria, B.C.
Condolences may be offered to the family below.

Frank and Family,
We are so sad to hear of the loss of your young daughter Amie. There are not words to express the feeling of losing a child.
Please take some comfort knowing that you have lots of friends that truly care about you, and your family. Stay strong for Amies son Jordan, and her husband Tristan they will need you. Always remember the fun times, and make lemonade from lemons as often as you can, in memory of her.
If there is anything you need, please let us know.
