Helen lived life fully; her loved of camping, sailing, and travelling made her life a true adventure.

Helen made a difference in everyone’s life she touched. She will be forever remembered by her devoted husband Ken and her family.

A Celebration of Helen’s Life will take place at a later day. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Kamloops Hospice Association.
