Betty Naoe Shimoda

It is with deep sadness that we announce the loss of Betty Naoe Shimoda. A loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend, Betty will always be remembered for her zest of life, strong presence and love of people. Even in her 90s, she led an active life, sung in a choir, played mahjong and made her social rounds every week in her perfectly coordinated outfits. For her 90th birthday last year, she was surrounded by so many of her friends and family who will always love her and will miss her dearly.

Betty is predeceased by her husband Nick and survived and forever loved by Ron, Kyoko, Gail, Gordon, Stefanie, Sarah, Sayuri, Sherwin, Charlie and Bentley.

In lieu of flowers or koden, a donation to BC Cancer Foundation, Nikkei Place Foundation or Heart and Stroke Foundation in her memory would be very much appreciated. Given the COVID-19 pandemic, we will be holding an intimate memorial service for family and will have a celebration of life at a later date. For information regarding memorial services, please call Stefanie at 778-558-337.
