Verna L. Cheramy

Passed away peacefully at Hospice on October 21, 2023 at the age of 79 years after a 4 year battle with cancer. She was the loving wife of Robert (Bob), Mother of Michelle (Nathan), Paula (Todd), and Jennifer (Ian); Grandmother of Ronan, Aline, Murray, and Nyla; Sister of Geri (Pat), Aunt to Lisa, Great-Aunt to Brooke and Justin; and friend to a large circle of people.

She is remembered as a loving wife, mother, friend and woman of faith. Verna's main focus in life was her family and ensuring everyone was happy and healthy.

On a professional basis she worked for many years with the local library system where she achieved great satisfaction in her work and made many great relationships.

Her faith was grounded in deep spirituality. Inspired by the charism of St. Margeurite Bourgeoise Verna was, for many years, a lay associate of the Sisters of the Congregation of Notre Dame, a relationship that was of great importance to her.

The family would like to thank the staff of the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Memorial Hospice Home, the cancer clinic at Royal Inland Hospital, as well as Nurse Practitioner Natalie Manhard.

A funeral mass will be held on Monday, October 30, 2023 at 10:30 am at Holy Family Parish, Kamloops BC. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Kamloops Hospice Association or the BC Cancer Foundation.
