    Our condolences to Darleen’s family. She worked with us on starting in 2008 at APTECH and then at AVH Engineering. She was a fantastic friend to all of us and contributed to our small team like a family member of a family business. She will be missed and very fondly remembered.

    My deep and sincere condolences to Darleen’s family and friends. I had the pleasure of having Darleen in one of my classes at Okanagan College. Darleen was an exceptional student, and contributed much to our learning environment with her many experiences. She was curious, kind and a passionate learner. We shared many conversations about rocks; a passion we both shared. Darleen was very inspiring to many of her classmates and instructors. She will not be soon forgotten. Much love and light to you Darleen. I am glad I got to share a small part of your journey.

    I was fortunate to have Darleen as a student in Materials Engineering Technology at NAIT many years ago. She was a good student and well liked by her fellow students and instructors. My condolences to her family and friends.

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.
