She enjoyed photography, especially while hiking or sailing at the cabin.
Connie was the cornerstone of the family, keeping up with the news of her extended family and keeping everyone connected even when we were geographically distant.
Many thanks to all the staff at Evergreen Wing of Overlander, who helped make our mother happy and content in her last years. You are true angels!
We love you Mum, and we will miss you!

In her younger years she loved to curl, was the Commissioner for the Girl Guides and then a long time member of the Trefoil Guild. After Ken retired they spent their summers in the Trailer on Tunkwa Lake where she enjoyed fishing and watching her beloved birds. Blondie had a beautiful singing voice and was a member of the St. George’s Church Choir and the Happy Chorister’s Choir for numerous years. She also spent a great deal of time knitting baby clothes for the Hospital Auxiliary and always has a fondness for, “Little Ones.”
Blondie will be remembered as a kind hearted, compassionate woman who showed outstanding strength and dignity in her last years. She will be sadly missed by all who were fortunate enough to have known her.
“Be like the bird in flight…pausing a while on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, yet sings knowing yet, that she has wings.”
Special thanks to Dr. Burris, High Country Health Care, and the entire staff at the Kamloops Seniors Village.
Viewing will take place from 7:00 to 9:00 pm on Tuesday, January 4, 2011 in the Rosewood Room at Kamloops Funeral Home, 285 Fortune Drive.
