It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Miranda Dall’Alba on Saturday, June 24, 2023, at the young age of 52 years.  Miranda passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones at the Foothills Medical Centre after a long courageous battle with Lung Cancer.

Miranda was a remarkable young lady who touched many lives throughout her lifetime.  She was known for her intelligence, kind heart, and her incredible commitment to helping others.  She had an infectious smile and was an inspiration to family, friends, and colleagues.  Miranda excelled at everything she put her mind to, including achieving a Master of Arts Degree in Leadership from Royal Roads University.  She also cherished the time spent with her family. She loved spending time with her nephews and niece and was always there to support them in their endeavors. She will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her, but never forgotten.

Miranda leaves to mourn her long-time friend, Larkin Daniel Taylor of Calgary, AB; her sister, Lily Morgan (Sean Morgan) of Thorsby, AB; her nephews, Ryan Morgan (Melissa and Henry) of Thorsby, AB, and Scott Morgan (Jade Pui-Porretta) of Edmonton, AB; her niece Amanda Harris (Brayden and Brynson) of Thorsby, AB; and many great friends and colleagues in Calgary.  She also leaves to mourn many relatives in Northern Italy and Sweden.

Miranda was predeceased by her father, Odillo Dall’Alba in 2013 and her mother, Olga Dall’Alba (nee Marcante) in 2016.
