Just returning from extended trips to Cranbrook and Edmonton, and sadly missed Maureen’s Celebration of Life. My

person, with a sharp sense of humor. She will be greatly missed by all whom know her!

We would like to offer you our sincere condolences Wayne to and your Family for your terrible loss, we remember Maureen as a very nice & friendly young lady when you worked with me. May your many fond memories of Maureen help give you strength to carry on.
My memory of Maureen goes way back to my early childhood. I once and awhile remember Maureen and Wayne’s home on Hatzic lake, the willow trees and the vast green grass property to run around. The memory is always a warm and calm feeling but now that I’m an adult I realize that the warm and calm feeling was obviously from Maureen herself. Thank you for those memories and your kindness.
My condolences Wayne
Visiting Salmon Arm will not be as enjoyable with Maureen not there. Maureen made me feel welcome and treated me like an old friend. When I remember Maureen I remember her out in her yard planting, pruning and weeding, making her yard the envy of her neighbors. Maureen would make us feel welcome by sharing her excellent baking skills. Maureen was the definition of a good person.
Maureen will be extremely missed by all who knew her.
Heartfelt condolences to Wayne and everyone who is going to miss her.
