<div itemprop="description">For 5 years, Nellie Vistan fought a long and hidden battle with breast cancer. Throughout this entire time, she kept it secret, choosing to focus on everyone else around her. From family to friends and customers, she always was there, smiling and listening and providing words of wisdom. Her entire life was dedicated to everyone she ever knew. Even in her passing, she chose to let the world continue making its course and let herself go into God&rsquo;s hands with only her son by her side. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />At the age of 61 and at Riverview Health Centre, she passed away peacefully on October 26th, 2015 at 4:00 a.m. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Nellie&rsquo;s legacy is continued by her son, Michael, who promises to be the best that he can - like she was. Even though her siblings and direct family are all located in the Philippines, she leaves behind an entire community of family and friends that all know how wonderful she was. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Her more recent life as a hairstylist was not just a job but largely helped define who she was. Not only was she fixing hair, but she was fixing the problems that everyone could easily open up to her about. Nellie&rsquo;s uncanny ability to have people confide in her is one of the many traits that no one could ever forget. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Lamay (viewing) will be held at 7:00 p.m. to midnight on November 7 and November 8, 2015 at Glen Lawn Funeral Home, 455 Lagimodiere Blvd. Funeral Mass will be held on Monday, November 9, 2015 at 10:30 a.m. at St. John Brebeuf Roman Catholic Church, 1707 John Brebeuf Place. Interment to follow at Glen Lawn Memorial Gardens. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />If friends wish to contact family, Michael Vistan can be reached at 204-230-9669. <br /> <br /></div>
