She was predeceased by her first husband Walter and second husband Jay, as well as her parents Anton and Hilda and sister Dorothy.
She is survived by her only child Sonya (children Nicholas (Nicole), Victoria and Alexander) as well as her children by marriage Debbie (children Trevor and Nathan), Brenda and Darell (Leah) (children Hailley, Todd, Mylee and Vanessa). She is also survived by her brother Gerald and sister Sharon, as well as the Bartsch, Holmquist, Westhoff, Hills and Myers families. Mom was a beloved part of a very large blended extended family.
Many thanks to Dr. Peter Barnsdale and the entire staff of the Cherry neighbourhood for taking such excellent and attentive care of Mom.
It was Mom’s wish to be cremated and her ashes will be interred at the Holmquist family cemetery (Lakeside) in Clearbrook Washington. All arrangements have been entrusted to Woodlawn Funeral Home in Abbotsford.
When COVID restrictions allow, a memorial service will be held at the Abbotsford Church of the Nazarene.
If you so choose, donations can be made in Mom’s name to B.C. Children’s Hospital.
