Eileen Douglas of Kamloops passed away on Thursday, April 25, 2019, surrounded by family, at 88 years of age. She is lovingly remembered by her son Craig (Brenda) Thomson of Kamloops, BC, grandchildren, Trista (Chris), Kara (Jeff), Caitlin, and Pearce (Brooklyn), great grandchildren, Carter, Logan, Carson and Brynn, and other relatives, Pauli (Gregor) Gabb, Eric (Doris) Woodward, Judy (Greg) Clark, Ken (Carla) Woodward, Chelsea and Alex Woodward, and Sarah and Evan Walker. Eileen was predeceased by her husband Jack Douglas and son Derek Thomson.

Eileen was born and raised in the Vancouver area. She married Gordon Thomson and together they had two loving sons. Though they parted ways, they remained close friends. Eileen then married the “love of her life,” Jack Douglas. Eileen had a passion for her work at Purdy’s Chocolates but eventually her adventures took her to West Kelowna. After many years there, she finally settled in Kamloops with her son and her beloved dog. Eileen loved staying close with her family through coffee time, TV time and “Happy Hour.”

A private family gathering will be held for Eileen in the summer. The family would like to offer a special thank you to all the fine Caregivers of Unit 2B at Kamloops Seniors Village.
