1936 – 2018

Arla Diane Mildred Hewlett, 83, of Kamloops, BC, died in hospital on the afternoon of October 26, 2018.

Born April 6, 1936 in Winnipeg, Man, she was the daughter of the late Marianne Chamberlain and Vern Newell.

She is survived by her son, Jason, daughter-in-law, Jessica, and grandson, Griffon.

Arla was predeceased by her husband, Frank, who passed away in 1991. He remained the love of her life until her final day.

A highly respected teacher for more than 30 years, Arla retired in 1996. Her love of teaching was recently reignited, when she helped Griffon develop a passion for reading and writing. An avid traveller, she enjoyed trips through the United States, Egypt and Italy during her retirement.

A Memorial Tea will be conducted from 1:00 to 3:00 pm on Saturday, Nov 10, 2018 in the Kamloops Funeral Home, 285 Fortune Drive.
