Wally was born November 9, 1931, in New Sarepta, Alberta to Adolf and Martha Klingspohn who immigrated from Poland in 1928. Wally was a proud Penticton resident of more than 50 years. She retired from the Penticton Regional Hospital in 1994. Her golden years were filled with trips to spend time with family in Prince George and California. Wally loved to travel, but her most memorable trip was in 2009 to Europe with her children where she was able to visit Germany, her ancestral home, and was given the opportunity to speak her first language. Wally spent her final years in Prince George at Simon Fraser Lodge where she was under the watchful eye of her daughters.
A funeral ceremony will be held on December 20, 2022, at 11:00 am at Providence Funeral Home, 1258 Main Street, Penticton, BC with Dirk Haiste officiating. Internment will follow at Lakeview Cemetery at 1:00 pm.
