KENNETH CHARLES CHURCHWELL 1946 — 2023

KENNETH CHARLES CHURCHWELL

It is with deep sadness that I inform our friends and family of the sudden passing of Kenneth (Ken) Churchwell on January 15, 2023. Kenneth spent the majority of his working life employed at B.C. Corrections, KRCC, and Rayleigh Camp. After retiring, he met his good friend, Al Tellier, who taught him to play the guitar. They were called “The Alkenolics.” Al passed away a year ago and that was very hard on Ken. I affirm they are playing guitars and singing together right now. Ken leaves to mourn his wife, Carol, his sister Kathy in Edmonton and his two brothers, Keith and Garnet of Saskatoon, as well as his nieces and nephews .  Ken, you’d better be there to meet me when it’s my turn. I love you.

JOANNE MARIE VIGNEAULT 1948 — 2023

JOANNE MARIE VIGNEAULT

JoAnne Marie Vigneault (née Seems) was born in Dalhousie, New Brunswick on Dec 12, 1948.  She passed away on Feb 26th, 2023 in Kamloops BC.  JoAnne was the last surviving child of parents Frank and Celia Seems and leaves behind two Children, Luke and Lise  and  one  grandson, Miles.

JoAnne grew up in a large family in New Brunswick. Completing her post secondary education in Fredericton, she moved around the Maritimes and Quebec before meeting Wilf, with whom she married and had two children. In 1993 the family moved to Kamloops where she  remained.  Following a separation from Wilf, JoAnne met her longtime partner Garry, with whom she stayed for more than 20 years.

In life, JoAnne was athletic; excelling at tennis and always finding new ways to keep fit.  She at times had a sharp wit, which she held onto until her final days.  JoAnne was a voracious reader and loved crosswords and games.  Almost to a fault, she always saw the best in people. She valued a good sense of humour and a love of music.  She was a lovely woman who was admired by friends and family.

There will be no service for JoAnne. The family asks that donations be made to an Alzheimer’s organization of your choice.                                           Condolences may be sent to the family from
