It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Mary Menagh on January 27^th, 2022. After a lengthy battle with Lewy Body Dementia, Mum died peacefully with her daughter by her side.

Mum loved and valued her family above
all else. Her legacy includes five children,
ten grandchildren and ten great grandchildren: Debbie (Terry) Long,
Tara, Daffy, Randee, Marlin and Maeve, Denny Chomyc, Jesy Bear (Jesse), Jared (Jackie), Selena, Jacob, Jaime, Jude and Lily, Lynn (Serge) Pelletier, Chantal (Alex), Jari Lee, Jayden, Loucas and Thomas, Butch Menagh,
Stacey Burgher, Dwight, Craig and Keath.

Mary excelled in many roles as a Mum, Grannie, great grandmother, sister and friend, including her four-legged friends Muffin and Puffin. She was the backbone of our family and passed down many traditions. Each of us has special memories and moments when she made us feel extraordinary and loved. Mum was always there if any of us needed her in any way.

Mary enjoyed family game nights, crib, card games (hands-down the champion card shark!), gardening, roses, vegetables, country music, dancing, beer in the afternoon, backyard pool parties, sewing blankets for all of us, crafting, baking (especially with her grandkids) and making each grandchild a personalized advent calendar.

A few of Mary’s favourite things included making ice cream floats, special birthday cakes (always with a candle race to follow), shortcake with raspberries from her garden, eating at Lotus, hot weather, gingersnap cookies and cheese, cucumber sandwiches, the colour red, blue eyeshadow, red lipstick, raven black hair and white shirts. All holidays were celebrated with special traditions including Easter bunny cakes and valentine’s goodies, but Christmas was Mum’s favourite holiday which started and ended weeks before and after December 25^th. The interior of her home was magical and the exterior spectacular enough to be included in the local newspaper’s drive by list. She always greeted us at the top of the stairs with a special personalized nickname and walked us out to the vehicle with leftovers, treats and big hugs. She always waved until we were out of sight.

We remember Mum as being quick witted, having a great sense of humor, being so caring and a great hugger. Her hugs made her grandkids’ hearts burst with love. She took great pride in herself, her home and her family and their accomplishments. Mary had a strong work ethic which she definitely passed on to us, as well as the ability to budget and make a penny go a mile. She always welcomed our friends into her home.

In the limited space we have here, no one could perfectly capture in words what Mum, Granny, Bow Wow, and GG was to each of us or explain what an incredible light she was. We are highly favoured and greatly blessed to have had such an amazing woman in our lives. She will be deeply missed and never forgotten. A private family service will be held. In lieu of flowers please donate to the SPCA.

With great sadness, we announce the passing of Ernani Consalvo on January 23rd, 2022, who passed away peacefully with his family by his side.

Ernani is survived by his loving wife, Sabia, of 62 years; two sons Tony and Mario (Anita); three grandchildren Rio, Taya, and Carel; brother Domenico; sister-in-law Ornella, nieces Maria, Tina, and Lorilee, and many other close friends. He also leaves behind many relatives in Italy.

Ernani was born on September 27th, 1933, in Casoli, Italy. At the age
of 24, he arrived in Halifax by boat; he made his way out west and settled in Valemount, BC. Two years later, the love of his life came to join him,
and they got married on July 11th, 1959. Their first son, Tony, was born, and six years later, their family was completed with the birth of their second son, Mario. The family eventually made their way to
Kamloops, BC. Ernani worked for the CN Railway as a foreman for 32 years before retiring at age 56.

After retirement, Ernani enjoyed fishing, gardening, making wine, building, renovating and creating new inventions to make life easier for those he loved. Ernani was not a man of many words, but he showed his love by helping others; he was always there for family and friends. He was a wonderful Nonno to his grandchildren Rio, Taya and Carel. Ernani’s favourite moments were Sunday night dinners surrounded by his family and friends. Even though he is not with us anymore, Ernani’s spot at the table will remain his forever.

A private funeral Mass will be held at Our Lady of Perpetual Help.

“Our Hearts are Broken”

God looked around his garden and he found an empty place.  He then looked down upon this earth and saw your tired face.  He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest.  God’s Garden must be beautiful, as he always takes the best.

With broken hearts we sadly say goodbye to Sheila Schock on January 20, 2022.

Leaving behind her husband Robert Schock, Shelley & Lee Oldham, Roberta & Doug Garraway, Dennis & Crystal Schock.  Grandchildren Kole, Dustin, Joshua,
Kaylea, Liam and Great Grandson Thomas.

We held her hand till the end…

Thank you, Aunty Gloria (sister) and Uncle Alan (brother), for helping us through this difficult time.

The family would like to thank Debbie Jolicoeur (RIH) for all her kindness, support and tenderness with mom we were blessed to have you!

Love you mom xoxo

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Kenneth Vernon Moffett on January 19th, 2022 with his devoted family by his side. Ken is survived by his loving wife of 56 years Pat, daughter Tracy (Mark), son John (Jamie), granddaughter’s Carsen and Sophia, grandson Ty, sister Janet (Andre) Arnould, sister-in-law
Donella Easter, brother-in-law
Gerry Chiulli and many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Ken was predeceased by his father John Moffett, his mother Nora Moffett, father-in-law Dave Chiulli, mother-in-law Eva Chiulli, sister Jackie Inglis, brother-in-law Bill Inglis, brother-in-law Raymond Chiulli, brother-in-law Barry Easter, and nephew Billy Inglis.

Ken was born on May 9, 1941, in Vancouver, B.C.  He spent his youth in Hedley, B.C. Nelson, B.C. and Uranium City, NWT.  When Ken was 20 years old he moved to Fort St. John, B.C. to play hockey for the Flyers. Ken was a fast skating forward and was known to be a tough opponent.  It was here he met the love of his life Pat Chiulli.  They were married on July 3, 1965.  The newlyweds moved to Kamloops where Pat was a teacher and Ken worked in construction.  He coached several minor hockey and baseball teams over the next few years. Pat and Ken settled in Westsyde where they lived for the next 56 years and raised their two children Tracy and John.

In 1968 Ken built his first house on Pine Springs Road.  This started his company K&P Construction which is still active today. He had a long-lasting and well-respected building career which included building many homes and developments in Kamloops and area.  Ken was honoured with a Lifetime Community Builder award by the City of Kamloops in 2014 for his visionary contribution to the housing industry.  He was always very proud to look up at the lights of Kamloops and know he had a hand in building many of those homes.

Ken lived an active and interesting life. He enjoyed many outdoor activities such as fishing, hunting, and hiking the hills around Kamloops. He kept his passion for hockey alive and played men’s league hockey and later for the Kamloops Old Timer Chiefs. Golfing also held a special place in his heart and he perfected his own unique golf swing. His favourite vacation spots were Hawaii, Palm Springs and the cherished family property on Kamloops Lake.

Ken was a proud husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and cousin. His family was everything to him and he will forever be missed.

Special thanks to Dr. Chip Bantock and the doctors and nurses who lovingly cared for him on 6 North at Royal Inland Hospital. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the RIH Foundation or the Canadian Cancer Society.

A prayer service will be held at 7pm on January 28th, 2022 at St. John Vianney Catholic Church and the funeral service will take place at 11am on January 29th, 2022 at St. John Vianney Catholic Church located at 2826 Bank Road, Kamloops B.C. with interment to follow at Hillside Cemetery.
