It is with great sadness that the family announces the peaceful passing of our beloved mother in Kelowna BC.
Marjorie was born on a farm in north Lincolnshire England on July 01, 1923 to Richard and Charlotte Kendall. She was the sixth of ten children. The family immigrated to Canada to start a farm in Onoway, Alberta 1927. She often shared stories of life on the farm and had great pride in her parents and siblings. Most loved tales were stories about her favorite horse "Daisy". Our home was always filled with pictures of horses and loving stories of the Families. Oh! how we laughed! We grew up very happy.
Marjorie joined the Canadian Armed Forces in the nurse medical corps when WW2 started. There she met her husband Sgt George Smith. Together they raised 6 children. Mom did everything for her family, we were so very lucky.
She is predeceased by her husband George (1979), sons Raymond (2019), Monty (2020) and Lorne (2023). She is survived by her daughter Twila, sons Patrick and Vernon, along with daughters in law Jean, Heather, Sheila and Rhonda. She had 10 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren several great, great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.
Godspeed mom, you will always be loved, cherished and remembered by all the family and friends that remain. We will greatly miss you and cherish every moment we had. God bless and keep you.
