Irma Bowe, born in Liège, Belgium, on March 27, 1957, passed away peacefully on June 3, 2025, in Burnaby, British Columbia. A bright, bold soul, Irma lived her life with joy, laughter, and an abundance of love. She was known for her happy spirit, her loud and unapologetic laugh, and the warmth she extended to everyone around her.
Irma is now reunited with her beloved mother, Assunta Bigiolli, father Edoardo Bigiolli, brother Joseph Bigiolli, and husband Scott Bowe, as well as many cherished family members who departed before her on this journey of life.
She leaves behind a deep legacy of love through her devoted partner Gregory Ryce; her children Kristalina, Paige, and Dale Bowe; her son-in-law Shaun Gill; her precious granddaughter Amariyah-Lee Bowe; and her soon-to-arrive grandson Enzo Gill, whom she sadly did not have the chance to meet - but who will grow up surrounded by stories of her boundless love.
All who loved and cherished Irma are welcome to attend and honor her beautiful life and legacy.
We will forever miss you, Mama. We know you are dancing in the heavens above. We love you.
