Obituary
With joy for a life well lived and sadness for a treasured mother and grandmother who is no longer with us, we announce the passing of Betty Joan Nordlund on Friday, October 21, 2022 at the age of 91years. Betty now joins her beloved husband Lloyd Nordlund in heaven.
She will be fondly remembered by Don Williams (Anne) of North Vancouver, BC, Jeff Nordlund (Lee) of Whitehorse, YT, Janice Durvin (Brian) of Nanaimo, BC, and Dennis Nordlund (Maria) of Penticton, BC, and grandchildren Brad (Mel), Katie (Dan), Hannah, Torsten, Wynn, Annabella, Andreas and Mimi.
Betty was born in Lethbridge, Alberta in 1931, but grew up in Vancouver BC where she eventually trained to be a Registered Nurse at St. Paul’s Hospital. Betty loved her profession as a pediatric nurse and moved to Penticton in 1953 to work in the brand-new Penticton Hospital. Penticton is where Betty and Lloyd met and fell in love, and they were married in Vancouver in 1955. Off they headed to the rustic but gorgeous town of Vanderhoof, BC. Lloyd operated the Vanderhoof Pharmacy, and Betty devoted her life to supporting the family and raising the children.
In 1973, they sought a warmer climate and moved back to Penticton. Whether it was in Penticton or in Vanderhoof, Betty volunteered in many community events. She was a devoted Christian who spent hours teaching Sunday school and baking for fundraisers. Betty loved to swim in Okanagan Lake or at AquaFit classes, cross country ski at Apex or Nickel Plate, play tennis as a member of the Penticton Yacht Club, knit, bake, play piano, sing, garden, and enjoyed walking in nature.
Betty always had a smile and warm positive attitude towards everyone. She truly cared for people and made conscious efforts to touch peoples’ lives. Betty was generous and kind beyond description and was a very self-less person. She valued friendships, remembered everyone and enjoyed spending time in the communities of Vanderhoof and Penticton. She adored spending time with her 8 grandchildren and was immensely proud of their activities and accomplishments.
Thank you to all the staff who cared for Betty at The Concorde, Haven Hill and the Penticton Regional Hospital.
Donations in Betty’s name can be made to either the Penticton Regional Hospital or the BC Cancer Foundation.
A service celebrating Betty’s life will take place at a later date.

Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Betty Joan Nordlund July 6 1931 October 21 2022 (age 91)..
