Mike Puhallo
Mike passed away on Thursday, June 24, 2011, at the age of 58, after a short battle with cancer. He was surrounded by love as he wrapped his legs around Pegasus and cut a trail for God’s Arena.
Mike was born and raised in Kamloops. He was the fourth of five children for Kay and Steve Puhallo. He married the love of his life, Linda, in 1976 and the couple raised two children, Paul and Sharlene. He was predeceased by his mother Kay and his brother-in-law, Terry Hand. Mike is survived by his father, Steve, and his siblings: Sue (Jim), Pete (June), Patti (Gerd) and Gord (Diana), and many loved nieces and nephews.
Over the years, Mike has meant so much, to so many people. Above all, Mike was a man of integrity and a chaser of dreams. He was a rodeo cowboy, a cattle rancher, an artist, a cowboy poet, a horse trainer, a truck driver, a pilot, a historian, a philosopher, husband, father, son, brother and friend who was there when you needed a hand and lifted you to be your best.
Mike was a founding member and the President of the B.C. Cowboy Heritage Society. The preservation of western heritage and culture was one of Mike’s greatest passions, second only to working with his horses. He always said he’d rather ride than drive.
Mike will always be remembered as a Cowboy Poet. Mike is Canada’s most published cowboy poet. Two of his books received the Will Rogers Medallion Award for Excellence in Cowboy Poetry. All three of his CDs were nominated for Cowboy Poetry Album of the Year and in 2009 he was named the Academy of Western Artist’s Cowboy Poet of the Year. Mike received the Queen’s Golden Jubilee Medallion in 2003 and in 2006 was one of the nominees for Canadian Parliamentary Poet laureate.
Mike’s legacy as a Cowboy Poet is a testament to his courage to take his own advice in life, that you can be whatever you choose to be.
Those who achieve success are those who take a dream and make it come true.
The family would like to thank the amazing staff at the Marjorie Willowby Snowden Hospice for their gentle care.
There will be a Celebration of Life for Mike at the Calvary Community Church on Thursday, June 30, at 1:00 pm. Arrangements have been entrusted to Kamloops Funeral Home. Condolences may be emailed to the family from www.kamloopsfuneralhome.com
Mike believed in education and sought to support others in realising their dreams. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the B.C. Cowboy Heritage Society scholarship fund. www.bcchs.com

SUSAN LOUISE BEPPLE
June 19, 1944 - July 14, 2011
Susan Louise Bepple of Kamloops passed away on July 14, 2011 at 67 years of age.
She is survived by her loving husband and soulmate Terry, daughters Leslie (Paul) and Christine (Mike) ; grandchildren Avery (Landon), Allan (Colette), Cassie and Mitchell; great-grandchild Tristen, brother Dave, sister Stephanie and an extended family of nephews and nieces, in-laws, dear friends and kindred spirits.

At the age of 2, her family returned to Vancouver and Susan’s early years were spent in Vancouver and Victoria. Her father renovated and sold numerous houses as a sideline to his job with a national supply company. By the time Terry and Susan built their dream home in Rayleigh, it was the 50th house she had lived in! The house and garden were her design and every detail showed her meticulous planning. More remarkable is that she could recall the layout and floor plans of every home she had lived in. No surprise that she briefly had a career in real estate. She excelled as a wife, mother, businesswoman, home renovator and all purpose event organizer. No one was safe from the wise counsel and advice she offered. Susan was a lively, intelligent, engaging and loving person who remained young at heart. Through years of difficult and complicated health problems, she remained optimistic about her future and full involved in the lives of her family.
Her family and friends were the center of Susan’s universe.
Susan’s life will be celebrated with a Funeral Service at 2:00 pm on Saturday, July 23, 2011 in St. Paul’s Anglican Cathedral, 360 Nicola St., Kamloops, with Reverend Isabel Healy-Morrow officiating.
