We Remember
BOURNE, Kathryn Ann
February 27, 1953 — March 8, 2026
With profound sadness, I announce the passing of our dear sister Kathryn Ann Bourne on Sun, March 8th, 2026.
Born on February 27th, 1953, Kathy was a shining light in our family and a best friend and confidant to many. She grew up working side-by-side with her family on a farm near Netherhill, Saskatchewan, and Kath participated in all of farm life’s challenges and joys. This is where she developed her love for all animals (except snakes) and that love continued throughout her life.
Kathy had a unique ability to connect with people on a profound level, leaving an impact on everyone she met.
Graduating with her RN, Kathy nursed in Saskatchewan at various hospitals and worked for the STARS program in Alberta. She, along with her mom, moved to Kelowna, BC in 2000, where Kathy continued her nursing career in long-term care facilities; she eventually moved into management positions.
Kathy’s humour was infectious and I can still hear her laughing after startling someone who was caught unaware.
Kathy was a constant companion and support to her nephew Jeffrey throughout his life and they developed a special bond.
She was predeceased by her father, Victor Bourne; mother Muriel (née Roach); and sister, Beverly (Bob) Reed.
She is survived by her brother Bob Bourne, and her nephews Jeffrey (Sarah) and Justin (Brianna); brother Tim Bourne; sister Maureen (David) Beauchesne, niece Bre (Cody) and nephew Dan (Yoshiko), and her grandnephews- and nieces; and by her niece Connie (Mark) Elliott; as well as uncle Barry (Janet) Roach, and many cousins who were a constant in Kathy’s life. She will also be missed by Janice, who was Kathy’s forever friend.
Her spirit will live on in our hearts forever.
