January 18, 1941 — September 10, 2023
Anna Evenrude (nee Wood) passed away surrounded by family on September 10, 2023. Born in Matheson, Ontario in 1941, her large extended family took a train trip west and settled in Delta, B.C. in 1943.
After high school Anna trained to be a nurse and worked in communities around B.C., finding her forever home in Kamloops in 1974.
In 1994 she met and married her beloved Kirk and her real adventures began. Traveling, hiking, biking and skiing with friends, her grandchildren or members of the Kamloops Outdoor Club – she was never happier than when she was off exploring this beautiful world with Kirk. Anna had life long friendships she treasured and a strong faith as part of the Kamloops United Church community. She most of all loved her family and was never shy to share how proud she was of us. Anna is survived by her son Marshall Gellatly and partner Liz Labby; her daughter Tricia Gellatly; her grandson Tyler Gellatly and granddaughter Kylie Kwasny and husband Kurtis and their children Kallie, Brailee and Luke.
Please join us in celebrating her life on Monday, September 25 at 11:00 a.m. at Schoenings Funeral Home, there will be a light lunch to follow.
In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory gratefully received to the Kamloops Hospice Society or to Myeloma Canada.
