With sadness, the family of Margery Louise Riley (Weichel) announces her passing at the age of 75. She is survived by her husband of 52 years, Bill, her children  Tim (Lucy), Scott (Wendy), Chris (Diane), Danielle (Ted) and Honourary daughter Hélène (David), her grand-children Kendra (Anthio), Devin, Megan, David, Paige, Liam and Erica, her brothers Cliff (Diana), Dick (Yvonne), Ken (Zita), her furry companion Murphy and many relatives and friends, too many to count. Marge’s greatest achievement was raising her four children, who are fairly well adjusted.

She was an active member of Christ theKing Church and the Parish Craft Club. She also volunteered at the Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop. There was a special place in Marge’s heart for all of the children that shared her life over the years. She enjoyed gardening, quilting, baking and cooking for her family and friends. Marge’s family would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Dr. Mark Hamilton, Lynn the palliative care nurse, Shirley from Nurse Next Door and all of the staff atSouth Okanagan General Hospital for the wonderful care that Marge received during her illness. Funeral service will be held at Christ the King Church on Saturday, March 31, 2012, at 11:00 am, luncheon and orange floats to follow in the church hall. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the Oliver Food Bank in Marge’s name.
