September 26, 1939 – February 25, 2017

On February 25, 2017, Jean Frilund passed away after a lengthy battle with Parkinson’s disease and cancer. Jean was surrounded by her family who adored her. Predeceased by her husband Ralph, parents Leonard and Maud Hutchinson, sister and brother-in law Patricia and Roy Linville and great-grandson Brylie Sagert. Jean is survived by her children Randy Frilund (Lori Chem), Bonnie Sagert (Cliff), Glenda Rodgers (Allan Trufanenko), grandchildren Tanner, Jaclyn and Jahonny Frilund, Tyler (Natalie), Ryan (Elysia) and Craig (Courtney) Sagert, Allysia (Tom), Becky and Stacey (Chris) Rodgers, great-grandchildren Cooper, Harper, Hayden, Amya, Cameron and Jordyn, also her nephews Harvey (Marlene) Linville and Ken (Chris) Linville. Born September 26, 1939, Jean grew up in Pritchard, BC and attended high school in Kamloops. Soon after graduating, Jean met Ralph and they married in 1957. Together they enjoyed bowling, bridge, golf and family time at Knouff Lake. Mom was the #1 fan for all her kids and grandkids. She was never one to miss any event involving her family. In recent years, Friday afternoons were well spent with her good buddies playing bridge. We are so thankful to the ladies who made this happen. Those who knew Jean couldn’t help but love her. She was a modest lady with an enormous heart. Selfless, devoted, strong, stoic and perhaps a little “stubborn” at times. Special thanks to Dr. Jeevyn Chahal for going above and beyond for our mother. Also to the incredible staff at Pinegrove who took remarkably tender care of mom in her final days. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Parkinson Foundation or Royal Inland Hospital Foundation are greatly appreciated. No Service by request. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, March 11, 2017 at 1:00 pm at the North Shore Community Centre “Oak Room”, 730 Cottonwood Ave., Kamloops, BC.

That soft breeze? That’s me kissing you. That feeling you always have in your heart? That’s me loving you.
