Rebecca Contois, age 24, was a member of O-chi-Chak-Ko-Sipi First Nation. She was a bright and friendly mother and loved ones would describe her as having a good sense of humour.
Rebecca was one of four indigenous women believed to have been murdered by an alleged Winnipeg serial killer in 2002. She is believed to have been his last victim, however her remains were the first to be found.
