“Together Again” Wynne and Walter Robinson
Drawn from her devoted family home on the Birtle, Manitoba homestead, Wynne was enticed to the more than 47 years of romance with Walter and 75 years in Kamloops. With her chosen career in Nursing, Wynne ventured to Kamloops in 1945 to be with the sole, charming, man of her life as they married in 1946 at the Kamloops United Church.
In their years together they thrived through multiple family and friend relationships on River Street and in Prince Charles Park neighbourhoods. They each saw a few careers and many family and friend accomplishments. They thrived in their; loving relationships, music and the wonder of nature. Walter died March 8, 1993, with Wynne by his side. Wynne was predeceased by four siblings; Joe, Nel, George and Fred.
She is survived by son Wayne and Lesley of Parksville and grandchildren Kendra of Vancouver and Kurtis of Kamloops. Also daughter Tanyse Billas, Robert Starchevich and grandchildren Lauren and Robert Junior of BC. Wynne was survived by her dear friend Doris. After a 100 plus years of gracing our lives and making this world a better place, Mom has peacefully passed away on June 19, 2021, with family by her side. Thank you, Pinegrove staff and volunteers, for your care and comfort to Wynne, family and friends as they supported each other. Wynne will be cremated, and her ashes placed at the gravesite she chose at Neepawa, Manitoba, returning “home”. Mom said “a memory in the heart was enough” and requested no formal funeral.
