Sally Ann Roe

It is with great sadness the family of Sally Roe announces her passing on November 18, 2022 at the age of 83. She was born on May 11, 1939 in Courtenay BC. The island was her favourite place and where, as a teenager, she met Leo. The logging industry brought them to Prince George but she returned every summer to visit many beloved family members and friends who still live there. Although she couldn’t swim and hated seafood, it was the ocean and beaches that were home to her. Kye Bay is probably short of driftwood and shells thanks to mom’s collection. They went on to have four children. They built a successful road construction company and lived a good life.

Mom will be remembered for her sarcastic humor, contagious laugh and generous nature. She would drive across town for a dozen pastries and then show up at your door to share ONE with you. She loved to play bingo and go to the casino, as well as sit by a fire and tell us how to put logs on it. If you ever played cards with her, your skin is a little thicker from it.

She leaves behind three of her four children Michael, Ron (Michelle), Cathy (Nick); brother Laurie (Gerdie) Mathers; grandchildren Tara, Chelsey, Kandice, Kurtis, Amy, Rylei; eight great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews whom she loved dearly.

She is predeceased by her husband Leo Roe; grandson Ethan Blacker; son Dennis Roe; sister Judy Drouillard and several cherished family members.

A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, April 29, 2023 at the Hart Pioneer Centre 6986 Hart Highway from 1-4pm.
