Since retiring from a second career after family, Vi enjoyed spending time camping in the foothills, knitting hats for charity, spending time with the ladies on bus trips, walking in the neighbourhood and most especially spending time with her grandchildren. Vi passed away peacefully at the Foothills Hospital on January 8, 2012. Vi will be always remembered by her children, Donna, Jim (Michele), Janice (Mitch) and her two beautiful granddaughters Madalyn and Makenna. She will also be dearly missed by her brother Alec, several relatives, dear friends and special neighbours. She was predeceased by her husband Donald, her sister Nancy, her brother Steve and her parents.
