Josephine 'Jo' Mary Stark Topolewski

Posted Oct 16, 2025 | 8:50 AM

April 5, 1935 — September 22, 2025

Born April 5, 1935, Primate, SK. 

Called to Peace September 22, 2025, Kamloops, B.C. 

She will forever be loved and missed by her children David, Gary (Marla), Wayne (Tracy), Lana (Keith), Mark (Denise), Peter (Danica), and Patrick. And forever treasured by her grandchildren Milen (Garima), Noah, Jack, Lucas, Vincent, Joshua, Jaden, Jolene, Alysha, Ryan and precious great-grandchildren Dorothy, Rodger and Vera.  

Also left to mourn are countless lifelong friends and cherished extended family members, including her brother George (Pat) and beloved brother-in-law Joe. 

Predeceased by her true love forever, Peter, her infant son Michael, parents Anna and Lorenz, Peter’s parents Tekla and Harry, sisters Anne and Clare, brother Lorenz, in-laws Balzar, Nick and Jessie, Jack and Mary, Jennie and Metro, and most recently Joan. 

She died as she lived, with beauty and grace. The sweetest, kindest, gentlest soul, she loved us well and left us a legacy of faith and family. Her deep wisdom and unconditional love will continue to be our rudder and compass. How blessed we were to call you ours. 

Mom, our sorrow now finds comfort and our hearts feel joy knowing you are resting in perfect, deserved peace, back in the heart and arms of those who have been waiting for you. 

Private family prayers, a funeral mass at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, and burial at Hillside Cemetery have taken place. 

So Much Love. In Our Hearts Forever.

You may offer a message of condolence at Schoening Funeral Services for the Topolewski family.
