Therese went to be with the Lord on January 10, 2017 at the age of 90. Therese will forever be cherished by her seven surviving children: Roger (Frances) of Duncan, Albert of Duncan, Louise (Robin) of Williams Lake, Carol (Greg) of Kelowna, Diane (Bruce) of Kelowna, Marie (Rob) of Princeton, and Daniel (Wendy) of Williams Lake; 20 grandchildren, 27 great grandchildren, one great-great grandchild, and three siblings: Florence Stonehouse, Alice McCrea, and Leon McCrea.  Theresa was predeceased by her devoted husband Leo (2015), her third son John (2009) and by 10 of her 13 siblings.  Therese was born March 20, 1926 in Prud’homme, Saskatchewan to Clement and Augustine McCrea, the 9th of 14 children.  While growing up in Zenon Park, she met the love of her life Leo.  In 1943, Leo and Therese married in Victoria, BC and began their life together in Youbou, BC, Shawnigan, BC and eventually settling in Kelowna, BC.  Therese was a devoted mother and loving wife.  Therese and Leo, with their servant hearts, never hesitated to help family, church, and community.  Her joy in life was her family and serving God.  A special thank you from the Larmand family to Dr. Larry Bobyn for his care and dedication that always went above and beyond our expectations.   Thank you to all the staff and nurses at Spring Valley Care Home for all their kindness and devotion to our Mom, and for loving her like she was their own.  Prayers and viewing will be on Thursday, January 12th at 7 p.m. at Corpus Christi Catholic Church, 750 Rutland Rd.

    Sending my special thoughts and prayers for Theresa. She was a wonderful and giving person who truly made an impact on my life during my teenage years. She supported me with constant reminders that God is present in our lives regardless of our struggles and that has stuck with me to this day. I still carry a photo she gave me that was printed on Kodak paper of Jesus in the clouds. It was taken of the clouds from an airplane on Easter Sunday by friends of hers. She also gave me a plaque on my confirmation that said Have Faith. To this day, both remain inspirational. Thank you God for this wonderful person who was a gift to so many. I pray that she rests in peace with you. My condolescences to Leo and all those she has left behind.

    Regards,

    Jenny

Testimonials

They took care of me like family.

Judith Szabo

Everything was so organized and pertinent to what we needed. Everyone we met was kind, courteous and very helpful during our emotional and challenging time. Thank you so much.

Heather Mayne

They were so prompt on answering any questions and changing things. They were prepared and respected any religious decisions. The process was so seamless and made easy in such a high stress situation.

Tanya Kohar

In the past 2 years Springfield has helped us through the death of my Mother and my Father. Their response and help allowed us to focus on the remaining family rather than worrying about details of the funeral and all the notifications that are required upon a death.

Terry Eldridge

The atmosphere has been nothing but professional during times of grief.  After the passing of my mother, the staff coached me on the next steps and looked after filling in all the government forms that I needed to sign, which took a huge burden off my mind at the time.

Donald McClure

Everyone was so helpful and kind.  There was no pressure.  They provided exactly what we needed.

Diane Greenwood

From the time I called to the completion of all the services, I received compassionate, attentive and professional care.  There was a sense of caring from each staff member.  I was turning over my Mom to their care and I felt very comfortable with everyone.  I felt heard and never felt pushed into any decision.

Katherine Lewis

I have always found the team at Springfield Funeral Home to be VERY caring, kind, considerate and helpful.  I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone who asks which funeral home would I suggest they use.  No other funeral home I have dealt with even comes close to Springfield Funeral Home.

Ethna Tutt

Right at the onset, I was made very comfortable, there was no pressure.  I was made to feel as if I was the only one they had to serve.

Frances Baum

Everything that was arranged for us was perfect.  Our loved one, husband, father, brother was treated with respect.  Thank you for making this difficult time a little more acceptable via your staff’s obvious caring and respect.
