Obituary of Xie Lin Lim Kee Chong

December 18, 1975 – Port Louis, Mauritius

November 14, 2024 – Calgary, Alberta

 

Xie Lin “Celine” Lim Kee Chong passed away on Thursday, November 14, 2024, at the age of 48 years. A devoted wife, cherished friend, and radiant soul, Celine’s warmth and love left an indelible mark on everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.

 

Celine was born on December 18, 1975, in Port Louis, Mauritius, where her journey of love, laughter, and boundless passion began. She attended Loreto Convent of Port Louis and started her career as a legal assistant when she was 20.

 

In 2007, Celine and her beloved husband, Jean Marc, took a leap of faith to build a new life together in Canada. In Calgary, she continued her career path, which led her to Miller Thomson LLP.

 

Celine’s heart was full of life, and her passions were as vibrant as her smile. A gifted dancer, she embraced the beauty of Chinese dance from a young age, performed gracefully, and traveled to China for exhibition performances.

 

She found joy in the outdoors, her spirit soaring with every hike through Kananaskis and the Rockies. Nature was her sanctuary, where she found peace and wonder. Her kindness, intelligence, and tireless spirit inspired all who worked alongside her.

 

But Celine’s greatest devotion was to her family, especially her husband, Jean Marc. She was his rock, his confidante, and his greatest cheerleader. Her love was a steady, guiding light—a love that will forever shine in the hearts of those she touched.

 

Besides her loving husband, Jean Marc, Celine is survived by her parents, AhTee and Mando of Port Louis, Mauritius; and her brothers, Christopher (Saan), and Jeffrey of Port Louis, Mauritius.

 

Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Pius X Parish (2424 24 Avenue NW, Calgary, AB), on Saturday, November 23, 2024, at 11:00 a.m.
