Edith Jean Kassiones 1927 — 2014

Edith Jean Kassiones

February 20, 1927 ~ March 24, 2014

With profound sadness we announce Mum’s passing. The second child of Isaac and Anna Boyd Mum was born, raised and lived most of her life in Kamloops.

Mum is survived by daughters Carolyn (Warren) Bepple, Cherie (Hans Verhagan) Mansell, son James (Chris); grandchildren Shen, Ki, Kendra; sisters Hilda Sinclair, Marguerite (John) Burke, Dorothy (Bob) Grubb, Carol (Roy) Garby; brothers Bob (Audrey), Johnny (Helen Goronuk), Billy (Olive Brown); many nieces, nephews and cousins. We are a close-knit family and Mum cared for and gave her unconditional love to all and received much love in return.

Mum was a trail blazer for her family. She started to work in the kitchen of the Commodore Cafe in 1941 at age 14 doing dishes then peeling vegies. Eventually all her brothers and sisters at one time or another worked in either the Commodore Cafe or Alex’s Bar BQ. The Commodore is also where she met her husband Alex Kassiones who died in January 2005. After 40 years Mum retired from the Commodore and worked in dietary at Ponderosa Lodge for 10 years – a very enjoyable time for her.

Mum couldn’t wait to sign up for military service and persuaded her older sister Hilda to wait for her so they could join together. February 26, 1945 was the day!  Mum was later assigned to Canadian Army Shows and was in Rhythm Rodeo from August 1945 to November 1945 performing for recovering servicemen in England who were waiting to be shipped home.Read More & Leave Condolences »
