ShaunaLeBlanc

A life of love, laughter, and hard-won success — and a testimony of faith and restoration in Jesus Christ.

Where it began

Born in 1962. Married in 1981. Still in love.

Shauna married Richard LeBlanc in 1981 — the love of her life and her partner in every chapter since. Together they raised two children, Jenna (1984) and Justin (1987), and built a life and a career on the same foundation: people first.

Tiger lilies and the colour green have followed her all the way through — wild, resilient, and always coming back.

A career in excellence

One of the very best in the industry.

From her first management role in 1982 to owning her own store, Shauna spent decades developing people, rebuilding restaurants, and setting the standard others followed.

Love & laughter

The people who make the story.

Awards line the shelves, but the real measure of Shauna's life is the family around her — a marriage that has lasted since 1981, two children, and a home full of laughter through every season.

Her testimony

“They found no cancer.”

Hello everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve been on here but I wanted to share some good news. I was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in September 2022. So I’ve changed my diet and done various things. I went to Mexico for immunology and vitamin C injections. I didn’t want to follow the traditional route. God has blessed us with an amazing body.

They found a 4x6 tumor near my colon when I had a CT scan. I had a total hysterectomy yesterday and the doctors and nurses were amazed that my tumor was gone when they opened me up. I’ve been guided by Christ and with prayer I have such great results. They found no cancer.

So I wanted to share the power of God and the power of prayer. Bless you all.

— Shauna LeBlanc

“God has blessed us with an amazing body — and prayer with an amazing God.”
