Theresa Vandermeulen

It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Theresa on September 19, 2018 at Kelowna General Hospital after a brief illness. Theresa was born in Sydney Mines, NS on June 25, 1960, the daughter of Yvonne and the late Alexander Hartland Davis. Her favourite pastime was fishing. She was an excellent painter and had a very kind soul. She will be remembered by her family and friends for her faith, kindness and compassion. Theresa is survived by the love of her life, John VanDerMeulen; her three children, Joe Bonnar (Cathy Garland), Vanessa Bonnar and Jennifer Power (Chris). She will be missed by her stepchildren, Joel VanDerMeulen (Crystal Schultz) and Courtney Sweeney (Tom and their three precious children Kaysen, Kholson and Clarke). Also missing her will be her brothers and sisters, John Davis (Paula), Joan Nugent (Alvin), Darren Davis (Bernadette) and Kevin Davis (Joy), as well as many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her sister, Yvonne. We would like to send a special thanks to the management, employees and residents of Real Star Management who have offered endless support during our time of need. We will be forever grateful. “I’ll look for you among the stars And each dawn’s pastel sky, And whisper words of love to you But never say good-bye.” Cremation. Family Celebration of Life will take place in Nova Scotia at a later date. Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.springfieldfuneralhome.com.
