Kristi-Lea Kilpatrick (nee Ellison)
Obituary
Passed on
On February 7, 2026, Kristi suddenly passed away at the age of 46 years.
Kristi will be deeply missed by her loving husband Geoff, son Riley, daughter Emily, mother Stephanie, sisters Kim (Murray) and Keri (Mic), sister-in-law Cynthia (David) and brother-in-law Ian (Karin), many nieces and nephews along with many other relatives and friends.
She was predeceased by her father Wayne in 2007 “She was Dad’s little Tom Boy”
Kristi was born August 25, 1979 at Teulon Hunter Memorial Hospital and went to school at Teulon Elementary and Teulon Collegiate. After graduation, she went to Red River College and took the Computer Accounting Technician Program Course and then worked as a bank teller for a few years. Next, she took the Pharmacy Technician Course at Robertson College and worked at Shoppers Drug Mart at Selkirk and Teulon and then at Selkirk Mental Health Centre in the pharmacy department.
She was a devoted wife and mother. Spending time at home with family, playing board games, watching movies, and helping Riley and Emily filled her life with joy.
Her love of family also emulated her love of animals. The house always had cats and dogs. She and Geoff shared a deep love of their dogs Max and Thor.
Camping was also another family favorite and Kristi relished it. Planning and preparing without complaint, because she loved to sit around the campfire with her family making smores and just loving life.
She had many close caring friends in the community and through her work.
Cremation has taken place and a private family service will be held. Celebration of Life will be held at a later date this summer for family and friends.
Special thanks to all the EMT and Life Flight First Responders for trying so hard to save her and Ken Loehmer for his care and professional assistance.

My deepest condolences to Kristi's family. I am so shocked to hear of her sudden passing. I have known Kristi for about 25 years where I first met her working at CIBC in Stonewall. Kristi has always been so kind, sweet and even introduced me to her beautiful mother. I would see Kristi at the Olive Garden with our good friend Marlene and she would update me on her family and mom. She was so proud of her children and loved her family so much. You will be so missed Kristi-Lea!!
