Kathleen Margaret Jones

She was predeceased by her parents Herbert and Margaret Smith, her brother Allan Smith and daughter Sharon. She is survived by her husband of 70 years Lloyd; her daughters Carol (Chris) and Sheila (Tim); grandchildren Jonathan (Amy), Andrew, Ian (Vivian), Lauren (Connor), Patrick and Benjamin and great

grandchildren Jackson and Grayson.

Kay was born and grew up in Montreal. She graduated from Montreal High and worked for Sun Life until she married Lloyd. She was dedicated to her family and made the move to North Vancouver in the early 70’s and resided on the North Shore until her passing.

Kay was very active in her community. Early on, she was involved with the Eastern Star serving as a Past matron, President of the ACW at St. Catherine’s, Member of the Soroptimists, Tops and various other groups.

Her greatest joy came from her family and extended family. Her face would light up and she would beam with pride when talking about her “girls”, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was a very positive and considerate person who saw life’s bright side. She was a devoted friend to many and offered hope and help and understanding in any way she could.

The family would like to thank Dr. Marck Hudon, the nurses, doctors and care workers at St. Paul’s and Lions Gate hospitals, Vancouver Coastal Health and Inglewood Care Centre.

A funeral service will be held at St. Christopher’s Anglican, 1068 Inglewood Avenue, West Vancouver on Thursday March 16 at 11 am.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to the BC Cancer Foundation are appreciated.
