It is with heavy hearts that we announce that our loving wife, mom, grandmother, sister, aunt & friend passed away suddenly on October 11.  She was surrounded by her husband of 50 years Evan, her son Todd and his wife Marion, her daughter Stephanie and her partner Debra.  She also leaves behind granddaughter Catriona & grandson Trevor, her brothers Terry & Jim along with Jim’s wife Shirley & her niece Shawna & her partner Greg.  She is predeceased by sister Evelyn & brother Sidney.

Deanna will be remembered for her love of laughter, music & entertaining. Her kindness, generosity & loving way touched all who knew her. She will be missed dearly by her many friends especially those she met volunteering at YVR in the Green Coat Customer Care Program.

A service to remember & celebrate Deanna’s life will be held in the Garibaldi Room (31st floor) at Blue Horizon Hotel at 1:30 PM on November 9, 2019 with a reception following the service.  In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made in her memory to the Union Gospel Mission, the Heart & Stroke Foundation, BC Cancer Foundation or the VGH/UBC Foundation.
