Heather Mansfield was the daughter of Scott Mansfield of Colchester and Linda (Coolum) Ainsworth and David Ainsworth of the Shaw Road in Fletcher.  Her many aunts and uncles include Peter & Lisa Coolum and Lynn (Coolum) & Rick Gould of  Fairfax.  This is a very sad time for all of the family and friends.  We ask that folks keep Heather's family in their prayers during this very difficult time.

Heather was a 1998 graduate of BFA-Fairfax
