Margaret Diane Myers

Margaret was born on September 23rd, 1937 in Burns Lake, BC to James and Marion Spankie. She moved to Cherryville where she met her husband Arthur. They were married on September 24th, 1955. Margaret and Art moved around BC, following Art’s forestry career, and eventually settled in Vernon. They spent the last several years living in Armstrong on their son’s farm.

Mom’s greatest pleasures in life were: spending time with her family, feeling the wind blow in her face, singing country songs, gardening and watching a summer’s storm.

Margaret will be lovingly remembered by her children: Charolette (Bob) Hanaghan, Janet (Morris) Haugrud, Wanda (David) Coneybeare, Dale (Laurie) Myers, and Julia (John) Ruschienski; twelve grandchildren: Shelly (Jeff), Brent (Cassandra), Eliza, Amanda, Kailee, Amy, Reid, Broydon, Jacob, Samantha, Chelcie and Jessica; four great grandchildren: Sydney, Haley, Taylor, and Jayden; sisters, Eileen, Mavis and Brother Edwin; numerous nieces and nephews. Margaret was predeceased by her husband, Arthur, in 2012, her mom, dad and sisters: Nora, Stella, Isabelle, Rosie, and June.

The family would like to thank everyone involved in Margaret’s care at Vernon Jubilee Hospital, Polson Extended Care and Pleasant Valley Manor. Thank you for the kind and gentle care given to our Mother.
