Amanda Marie Snell
February 18th 1976- June 7th 2025
It’s with broken hearts that we share the loss of Amanda, who passed away on June 7, 2025, at 49 years old.
Amanda was the strongest and most compassionate woman we’ve ever known. She was the kind of person who carried everyone, quietly, fiercely, and without hesitation. She understood people on a level few ever do. If you were lucky enough to be in her circle, you knew that you could turn to her with anything and she would show up. She always showed up.
Amanda had a strength that carried others through crisis, through heartbreak, through everyday life. She gave everything she had to the people she loved, without hesitation and without asking for anything in return. Her care was unmatched. Her wisdom was a gift. And her ability to make people feel safe, heard, and loved will never be forgotten.
She was the kind of mother every child deserves, the rock, the nurturer, the cheerleader, the protector. Avery, River, and Jamie were her world, and she raised them with endless love, laughter, and unwavering support. To her family and friends, she was the one you called when you didn’t know what to do. And she always knew.
Amanda was more than a mother, sister, daughter, or friend. She was the steady in the storm, the person who made you feel like you mattered. She held people through their grief, their joy, their chaos and she did it with a heart full of love and a kind of quiet wisdom that made you feel safe just being near her.
She leaves behind her loving children: Avery (Syd), River, Jamie, and special daughter Charly; her mother Lorraine; stepfather Remi; brother Nathan; sisters-in-law Connie, Roberta, Natalie, and Glenda; and brother-in-law Wilfred. her aunt and uncle Marilyn and Glen, aunt Linda, cousins Dan, Shaun (daughter Jessa), and Scott. Special friends Richelle, Christine, Stacy, Cliff, Jackie, and Heather were treasures in her life.
Amanda was predeceased by her husband Steven Dubois, her father Howard Snell (Bijal), her uncle Jamie Snell, her grandmother Marion Snell, her sister-in-law Marion Dubois, and her nephew Haven.
Her presence was a gift, steady, generous, and full of grace. She gave her love freely, without conditions, and it changed lives. It changed our lives.
We don’t know how to move forward without her, we just know that we will have to, because Amanda would want us to. She believed in all of us, even when we didn’t believe in ourselves.
Amanda, we will carry your love with us, always. We’ll never stop missing you. And when we smile, even through our tears, we’ll think of you smiling back at us, just like you always did.
A celebration of Amanda’s life will be held at the Eastview Community Centre, 615 6th Avenue, Regina, Saskatchewan, on Tuesday, June 17 from 1:00 PM until 4:00 PM. All are welcome to join us in honoring her memory.

Dear Avery, River and JamieI have such wonderful memories of the time Amanda worked with us at The Caring Place. She loved the three of you so much and everything she did centered on being the mother and guide the three of you needed in your lives. I hurt so much for you all. May you find peace in the loving arms of Jesus - who was also a man of sorrows and aquinted with grief. He hears the cries of your hearts. Blessings on you as you travel this difficult grief journey ~ Gwendolyn Friedrich
I cant believe Amanda left us so soon everything her family wrote in her obituary was so true. I worked with her for a year - she trained me. Always patient and kind. I know how much she loved her family - they were everything to her, but still she had time for her friends and she had many. Everyone loved her, and enjoyed her presence. It was easy to see and feel. And she did have an inate understanding of people with a kindness that drew people to her. She had many words of wisdom and was a great support through my divorce. I'm grateful I had you as a friend and spent a year working closely with you - you touched my life greatly and I will miss you. Prayers and hugs for Avery, River, Jamie and family. ~ Tracy rodrigues

I was very sad to hear of Amanda’s passing. She and I spent a lot of time together growing up and I have many happy memories....Walking home from school together and then one of us immediately calling the other (because obviously so much had happened between my house and hers), working at the Regina Exhibition in our matching yellow jumpsuit uniforms, getting a Sears portrait photo (one of us had won the photo sitting, but I can’t remember which one of us it was), tagging along on countless trips with her family (thank you Lorraine and Remi) to Lemberg and a camping trip that started on the SK/MB border and ended in Banff, going with her for sleepovers at her dad and Bijal’s, walking to her grandma's during school lunch breaks for homemade buns and cookies. And countless others. My deepest condolences to Amanda’s family. ~ Claire Sisco-Guthrie
