Obituary
103 years. What a great life!!
Mary was born to John & Mary Troutman in New Westminster, BC.
Mary had a love for life. She always had a smile on her face and was game to try anything. She lived in Port Alberni, BC, Calgary, AB, Vancouver BC and finally in Penticton BC. Mary enjoyed traveling, visiting her family and spending time with her friends. She had a zest for life that brought joy to those around her. She always had a joke or a little ditty to make you smile.
Mary was predeceased by her husband, George Jeeves (1974); son, Douglas Jeeves (2002); husband, John Laurenson (2014); daughter-in-law, Ria Jeeves (2021); and grandson, Tyler Jeeves (2021).
Mary is survived by her son, Fred; daughter-in-law, Sabra Jeeves; grandchildren, Lisa Jeeves, Tara McMillan (Stuart Randall), Todd (Michelle) Jeeves, great-grandchildren, Ryan (Dusti) Semchuk, Brad Semchuk, Leanne Semchuk, Martin Jeeves, Elizabeth Jeeves; great-great-granddaughter, Jude Semchuk; and her best friend, Joyce.
Mary’s family extend great gratitude and love to her family at Trinity Care Centre, Penticton, BC for all the love, comfort and care that was extended to Mary the in last years of her life.
As per Mary’s wishes there will be no service. A private family Celebration of Life will take place at a later date.
In celebration of a life well lived, please pour yourself a glass of wine and make a toast!
As Mary would say…”I’ll drink to that.”
