It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that the Marshall family announce the loss of Brianna Marie Latimer on January 22, 2022 at the age of 33. Brianna had a kind heart. She will always be remembered as a proud caring mother, and for her thoughtfulness and generosity towards everyone around her. At an early age Brianna developed a love for spiritual travel, meditation and yoga, yearning for a deeper knowledge of oneself, the world and cultures around her. She was an equestrian rider as a child and returned to riding as an adult, taking inner solace visiting her horse Soxy. Brianna was a hard-working professional with an incredible work ethic. She began her career in Toronto as a successful junior producer working closely with her Aunt Lisa. Years later she joined the family business, helping to open Beach Street Station before becoming General Manager of the Park House. Brianna’s playful sense of humour and friendly banter made customers feel at home, filling their visits with laughter. She made an impact on those she interacted with; her smile and hugs will be missed by everyone who walks through the door.
Brianna is survived by her partner Justin Latimer, their two children Olivia and Jackson, the Latimer family, her parents Herb and Sherry Marshall, brothers and sister-in-law’s Jordan (Lauren), Tyler (Tahlia) and Adam (Hilary), her seven nieces and nephews, her dear friends Shanna and Jamie, and the people in her community whose lives were touched by her vibrant spirit.
Due to current pandemic restrictions, a private service will be held for immediate family, and a celebration of Brianna’s life will follow in the spring. Brianna will be in in our hearts forever and will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
Brianna was an advocate of mental health awareness and offered herself unconditionally to anyone in need. As expressions of sympathy, we ask that donations be made in Brianna’s memory to Alexandria Marine and General Hospital Foundation in Goderich, Canada. Specifically, their Psychiatric Services designed to provide resources and programs for those experiencing mental illness.

In the fall of 2018, my husband and I bought a cottage just outside of Goderich. Since then, we have come to the Parkhouse every Saturday night. Why? Well, in large part, it was because of Brianna. Right from the first weekend, Brianna and my husband and I connected. She let us know in different ways every single week that she remembered us, and would pick up a conversation right where we had left it off the week before. When I had my work colleagues out, I would make sure to take them to the Parkhouse, and of course, they loved the whole experience, including Brianna – and yes, they remember her even if they had only met her that one time.
It was just this past Saturday that I asked our server, where’s Brianna? We’ve been coming every week and haven’t seen her lately. The look on our server’s face told me everything I needed to know. Will we keep going to the Parkhouse? Yes. But I have to say, Brianna was the one person there who made an effort to connect with us on a personal level. She liked us and we liked her. She made us feel special from the very first week that we met her – like she liked that we were there… that she liked us. That’s a rare thing these days.
Well, I want you to know that we liked her too. And although we only had a small relationship with her, it was special to us.
We are so sorry for your loss.

Hi Adam,
Your sister’s passing was discussed on our En-Pro’s weekly staff conference call today and I just wanted to pass on my condolences. You were a great team member who I enjoyed working with. Our little firm has grown substantially since you left and I am still having fun at the ripe old age of 77.

Jenny Cooper
I am so shocked and heartbroken to hear of Brianna’s death. She was one of my first friends when I started working at Bensimon Byrne, and I was always blown away by how this young woman (4 years my junior!) was so elegant, cool and ahead of just about every trend. I was forever in awe of her style, grace and work ethic. She worked so hard and quickly gained the respect and admiration of everyone around her.
I also have Bri to thank for turning me into a cat lady by introducing me to the magnificent Tosh, who is still being loved and cared for to this day.
It isn’t fair she is gone. I am so sorry to Justin, their adorable kids and the Latimer and Marshall families… I can’t imagine what you are going through and you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Bonnie & Richard Prieur
Our deepest condolences to everyone.
Bri, Justin and the kids spent some time this past summer at the park. One of my favorite memories of Bri is watching her and the kids playing on the beach while the the sun was setting. It was so peaceful and beautiful.
Your beautiful smile will be missed but never forgotten.
Donna Garland
Brianna was just lovely through and through. I’m so, so sorry for your loss. I pray that her memory stays with you and cheers you through the darkest days.

Bri,
You never know when your going to touch someone’s life in such a way that it will stick with them forever.
Without even knowing, just a small sentence or gesture or act of kindness can make a difference in the life of another.
I don’t think you’ll ever know what your friendship did for me in a time of my life, I now know I needed it the most.
It’s been a long time since I have seen or talked with you, but that doesn’t matter to me.
You were meant to be in my life at the exact moments you were.
I didn’t know how to be a good friend then, and I will always regret that.
You were pretty much all I had, you always made me feel wanted. I love thinking of all the best times we had together, I feel so happy for that.
I’m so sorry I wasn’t a better friend to you. When I teach my children about how to be there for others, how to be good and kind to people in our lives, it will be because of the love and kindness you and your family showed me. Without even knowing, you taught me about love, respect and friendship.
I’ll never forget you ❤️❤️❤️
Love Noura

The Birds and all the Bettgers are completely heartbroken. We can’t imagine your pain. We have such wonderful memories of our fun conversations with Brianna at the ParkHouse. Our love and support to all of you.
Nicki Darbyson
My deepest sympathies to you all. Brianna was such a kind and thoughtful person.
This past summer when Jack was about a month old, Ben and I ventured over to the Parkhouse to have dinner on the patio with our new baby for the first time. As soon as our food arrived, Jack got fussy so Brianna came over and swung him in his car seat so we could eat together for a few minutes. Such a sweetheart. I’m sure there are many stories like that. May you hold those memories close at this most difficult time. ❤️

Hi Herb, Sherri and Family

Nancy and Don Grady
Don and I are both so distraught about Bri’s passing and for both the Marshall and Latimer Family’s loss at this terribly difficult time. Bri was classy, fun and a spiritual and radiant presence. All our family was Blessed to have known her both as a young woman, and a wonderful Mom. Many visits to Goderich were enjoyed over the years with highlights of Bri, Justin and the children on several occasions. Bri always gave extra attentive service to us when we came to enjoy annual anniversary dinners or birthday celebrations! Brianna will sorely be missed by the Grady Family in London.
Love Aunt Nancy, Uncle Don, Shawn and Nicole

Brianna was the most beautiful soul I have ever came into contact with. She was always there not only to make people smile but to help anyone no matter what it was. Her generous heart only cared about making everyone else around her feel welcome. My heart and thoughts are with her amazing family who I was lucky enough to work for. I am so grateful for these last few months I got the privilege to spend time everyday at the parkhouse doing the lunch shift with her, I knew as I would walk in and see her beautiful smile it was gonna be the best shift. Herb and Sherry I want u to know that I’m thinking of u everyday and know we are all grieving with you. 🙏 sending u love.
Michael Bennie
Cuz, I was always looking forward to getting to see you. You had the best smile (which you used all the time) and were the giver of fantastic hugs. I loved your sense of humour. I have been watching the promo videos that you made for the Parkhouse the last few days, love the roller skating ones…that’s the Bri I will always remember. Love you and miss you so much. XO
Nathan Koopmans
I would like to send my heartfelt condolences to both the Marshall and Latimer families.
Brianna was both beautiful inside and out. From the first day I started working at The Park House to anytime we crossed paths, she always made it a point to see how I was doing. She did that with everyone. She was the most caring and kind hearted soul. I will certainly miss the way she could light up the room and would have everyone laughing and smiling. Brianna, you have got your wings now, sweet angel. I know you’ll be watching over us.
We will miss you everyday,
Nathan Koopmans
Pennie and Mike Meadows
So sorry for your loss, it was always a delight to be Welcomed and seated by Brianna at the Park House!!
Lisanne Spataro
I was telling my sister in law a couple weeks ago about how where I grew up in Preston Lake the neighbours were more like family. We are all cousins, aunts, uncles etc to each other and Bri was such an important part to that family. I remember driving her to school in the mornings where we would share stores, laugh and listen to music. I will miss her always and her greeting me with a hug and that beautiful shy smile. Thinking of all of you at this time and know that we are all grieving with you xo
Judy Marshall
Ray and I would like to express our heartfelt condolences to Sherry , Herb and the family.

Dear Sherry, Herb and all of Brianna’s family especially today her twin Adam. We had the privilege of being in Brianna’s presence so many times at both Beach Street and the Park House. She was always engaging and warm and authentic. She cared and asked about you, and you knew she cared about your answer. She was interested in you, that was apparent and genuine. A light has gone out. We will miss seeing her around town and at the restaurant. But we will see her in you. Sending light and love and sympathy to all of you in these difficult times.
