We Remember

WISEMAN, Charlotte Sue

—

Passed away in Kelowna, BC on Thursday, April 3, 2014. Sue was born on April17, 1934, in Chillicothe, Ohio to Garnold and Ruth Uhrig.  She was predeceased by her husband, Robert Andrew Wiseman, and her sister, Lavonne Bowsher.  Sue is survived by her son, Jeff (Christine), of Wilmington, North Carolina, her son, John (Richelle), of Calgary, Alberta, her son, Joel (Melinda), of Kelowna, BC, her daughter, Diana Stanyer, of Calgary, Alberta, her brothers, John and David (Laura) Uhrig, and her sister-in-law, Olive Wiseman, all of Chillicothe, Ohio, and her sister-in­law, Carolyn Wiseman, of Fort Wayne, Indiana.

She is also survived by ten grandchildren and five great grandchildren.

At age 18, Sue married Bob on September 14, 1952, and within six years they had four children.  Sue excelled as a dedicated homemaker, wife and mother.  She and Bob left Ohio in 1967 for their great adventure to Prince George, BC.  Although she missed her family in Ohio, she kept in constant contact through cards, visits and letters.  For fifty years she was Bob’s constant companion, first mate and camp cook on many lake and ocean fishing expeditions, as well as hunting trips into the wilds of British Columbia.

Life was good to them, allowing Sue and Bob to travel extensively on business trips and vacations to all parts of the world, including Japan, Hawaii, Scandinavia, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Greece and North Africa, as well as most of the 50 states.  She had an enormous collection of photo albums and diaries which she enjoyed to her final days.

Although dementia colored Sue’s final years, it failed to erase her social and gregarious disposition.  The family is thankful for the kindness and care provided by Sun Pointe Village and Home Instead Senior Care, as well as the first responders.

A memorial service and interment for Sue will be held in Chillicothe, Ohio, later this spring.  In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Alzheimer Society of B.C. at www.alzheimerbc.org.  If you wish to send a condolence, post photos or share a memory, please scroll down the page to the area called “Share Your Condolences.”

    Goodmorning
    I read Sue’s obit in the PG Citizen this morning.
    It’s difficult to know what to say except you’re thought of in sympathy and friendship.

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.
