MARGARET TITCOMB
Passed in: Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada
Passed on: June 21st, 2013
Margaret 'Peggy' Titcomb (nee Tomkins) died peacefully on Friday, June 21, 2013 at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops following a brief illness. She was 91.
Peggy was born in Rugby, Warwickshire, England in June of 1922. She married the love of her life, Geoff Titcomb in 1945 and they were together for nearly 60 years until his death in 2005. Through Geoff's work as an educator they lived all over the United Kingdom. After retirement Peggy and Geoff immigrated to Canada in 1988 to be near their daughter Jill and her family in Winnipeg. Ten years later they relocated to Kamloops.
Peggy and Geoff were active members at Kamloops United Church and in particular the choirs. Peggy also made friends as a member of the White Cane Club as a Mall Walker at Aberdeen Mall and during her two very happy years living at the Ridgepointe.
Peggy volunteered with various charities and churches in England and continued as a volunteer in Canada, most recently at the Kamloops Seniors Village. She enjoyed knitting, reading, letter writing, sewing and loved listening to books on tape.
Extremely proud of her three children, Jill (Gillian), Patricia and Paul, Peggy was also a beloved grandmother and great-grandmother. She will be greatly missed.
A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, June 22 at 2:00 p.m. at Kamloops United Church.
The family wishes to thank the amazing staff at Royal Inland Hospital, particularly those on ward 5 North, for taking such good care of Peggy in her final days.
In lieu of flowers, it is requested that donations be made in Peggy's name to the Royal Inland Hospital Foundation (www.rihfoundation.ca)
