Anne Obertowich
April 03, 1923 – February 17, 2020

It is with great sadness to announce the passing of our loving mother Anne Obertowich of Kamloops, BC. Born in Poland in April 1923 mom passed away at the Overlander Care Home on Monday, February 17, 2020 at 96 years of age and the last surviving of her siblings.

Mom is survived by her daughter Karen Obertowich (fiancé Jacques), son Ken Obertowich (grandson Jesse), granddaughter Mindy Bryan (husband Chris) and great Grandson Daegen. She was raised in Boyle Alberta and moved to Kamloops where she raised her children.

She was owner operator of the Kamloops Inn in the late 1950’s with her husband Joe and then bought the Lariette Motel in Valleyview in the early 1960’s.  After retiring she lived in her home on Valleyview Drive for the last 45 years. Mom was always admired for her many flower beds, gardens and fruit trees and would always take time to talk to neighbors and anyone walking by her home. To her family she was famous for her pyrogies, jams and fresh canned fruits and her great sense of humour.

A hard-working lady right until her last breathe. She fought Dementia for the last five years and is now pain free and without doubt growing flowers and gardens in heaven. Her family would like to thank the wonderful staff at Blueberry Lane for their love and compassion and a special thank you to Dr. Loland for his many house visits, care and attentiveness right to the end.

There will be a Celebration of Life for our loving Momma Bear in the spring when the flowers begin to grow.
