Tessa’s heart continued to beat until 11:07 pm on February 21, 2019. She continued to give so unconditionally, going on to save the lives of six people.

My dear friend Heidi, our heart breaks for you and you are in our thoughts. Love you ❤️
Gregory, Isla-Faye and family, You are in my thoughts. Love Aunt Sheri and family
Praying God’s comfort and mercy surround you at this sad time. Our hearts break for you but rejoice in the fact Tessa’s legacy will live on in the people she so selflessly gave to and in little Isla Faye. Just know our thoughts and prayers are with you. Love you all.
I am so saddened to have lost one of my very best friends. We were in grade 10 and she had just moved here. And since, she’s been a sister to me, and all the other girls in our close circle. We moved into the “Stockwell” house about 4 years ago together and lived together 2 and a half years. So many laughs, and great times, even travels together. She made the house feel like home and I still feel her there. She was such a bright light in everybody’s lives. And it was amazing to watch her learn yoga be everything she loved. And she conquered it. I miss her and love her very much. Until we meet again…
I can always count on Tessa to get me back in touch with Dan and Heidi after a couple years of losing touch she was my buddy for the couple days I would come visit could always count on her for that, I hold on to our memories Tessa 🙏
My friends Heidi and Dan – words seem so meaningless right now. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Tessa was a beautiful young lady – inside and out- and her memory will live on through everyone who had the pleasure of knowing her. Much Love to you all ❤️Jo-
my heart is with your family. May Tessa fly with the angels and watch over her daughter Isla. My condolences
All the hugs and love to you Heidi. I will be forever saddened that i cannot attend in person, but will 100% watching the broadcast from one of Tessas most loved places, Bali Indonesia. ❤ Thank you so much for doing that. Xoxo
May your sweet soul fly free Tess.
Thinking of you all during this difficult time

. I am so heartbroken. I had stayed in touch with Tessa over the last few years, I truly love her dearly and miss her everyday. I send all of my love to you and Isla. All of us girls, heather, Ashley, Tia, Kayla, Rachelle and myself are so devastated and can’t begin to explain how sorry and sad we are. I know I haven’t seen you in many years but if you need anything, never forget I am here, any day, anytime. You raised an amazing woman and mother. I will never ever forget my memories I have with her. My fondest memories of travelling to Langley when I was young was to be able to play with my cousin Tessa. I was always so proud and happy seeing all her wonderful posts of everything she accomplished in her life. I will miss checking for her instagram stories to watch her playing with Isla-Faye, made me feel connected to her and Isla. She was such a good mom and such a genuine soul. All my love to you all. Xoxo
I know there are no words, Heidi – just know I’m so very sorry, and my thoughts are with you and I’m sending all the love vibes I can.
Gregory, Abbey, Robyn, Isla-Faye and Tessa’s family and friends.
We were so heartbroken to hear of Tessa’s passing. You have all been in our thoughts over these past couple of weeks and we are sending our love to each and every one of you. I am sure Tessa still walks beside you and will always be a guidance as you carry on raising little miss Isla-Faye, the beautiful gift that she has given you. Cherish your memories and allow the happy times you had together be the strength that gets you through the difficult times. Sending our deepest condolences.
Sheila, Calvin and Kyle Deering.
I wish I had the right words to take away all of the pain that those that are close to Tessa and that loved her so deeply. Keep those beautiful memories tucked close to your heart. My condolence to all that loved her, and to you Heidi who must be holding on by a string, my heart breaks for you. May the memories help you through the pain. Much <3 to all. Leah
We are so heartbroken, cannot imagine the hurt in your hearts. Tessa was such a beautiful Angel in human form, touching everyone she met. Her spirit will always shine here, in Oxygen Kelowna studio. We miss her very much. We are sending our deepest condolences and so much Love to sweet baby Isla-Faye, dear Heidi, and the rest of family.

Heidi, I do not know what to say. Tessa was your world and your world is shattered. You are a wonderful mother who raised a wonderful daughter. I am so so sorry for your unbelievable loss. Thinking of you. Love Jane
Heidi, My deepest sympathies & I cannot begin to understand what you are going through. Tessa has departed from this earth but she never truly leaves, she is still alive in our hearts and minds. Through you and Isla-Faye, Tessa will live on and never be forgotten.
Beautiful and poignant obituary. Our sincerest condolences.
Sending our love and condolences to Gregory and family as well as the Hutton family on this difficult day. May your memories of Tessa always live on in Isla-Faye.
Thank you for broadcasting Tessa’s funeral. I was not able to make it today, but with the broadcast I felt like I was there. It was a beautiful remembrance service, and from the heart all who spoke. I thank them for their courage to speak at such a difficult time. I lit a candle for Tessa and for your family today as where Jesus said “where two or three are gathered in my name; I am there with you.”.. Much love and sympathy to all your family. After hearing the family describe Tessa and her love for the environment; bringing home everything to do with nature; I thought that is what I have I common with Tessa. We were a lot alike, but unfortunately I didn’t get to experience that with her. She was a wonderful soul, and she will lay up treasure in heaven for all that she has done on earth. My heart is truly broken with yours; and I offer my most sincerest condolences. With much tears for you all.

And now we also hear the good news that she has given you the gift of a beautiful granddaughter so her spirit will always be with you.
Sending our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time may she rest in piece loved always we will miss Tessa deeply she was beautiful in side and out. Love Marion and Jim
