Born In: Barrhead, Alberta, Canada

Passed in: Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada
Passed on: October 9th, 2013


It is with great sadness that Tillie's family announce her passing on October 9th, 2013.

Mom was born July 10th, 1930 in Barrhead, AB, to Rudolf and Ernestina Timm. She was the youngest sister to Natalie, Herb and Elsie. The family homesteaded on 160 acres between Barrhead and Westlock until they moved to Kelowna when Tillie was 10 years old. Mom had many fond memories of her youth in the Okanagan, including ice skating on the lake, working packing fruit in the packing house, and at age 16, going with her sister Elsie and some friends to work in Banff for the summer.

Mom moved to Kamloops with her parents in the late 1950's. It was while working at the Tranquille TB Centre, she met Bill, and they married on February 2nd, 1958.

While Tillie will be reunited with Bill, her parents, siblings and countless other family and friends who have gone before her, she leaves many here to cherish her. She is forever in the hearts of her children Lorie, Gail, Gerry and Terry, grandchildren Ryan and Kate, Brandon, Heather (Justin), Spencer and Danika (Paul) and great-grandson Theron.

A Celebration of Life for Tillie will be held at the Kamloops Funeral Home at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 15th, 2013 with interment at Hillside Cemetery to follow.

Many thanks to Dr. Van Zyl, the hospitalists, and the 6 South nurses for Mom's care.

Also, thanks to Emma, Florence, Grace, Pat, Al and Lynn. Mom appreciated your friendship and spoke fondly of you all.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice House would be appreciated.
