We Remember

FICHTER, Theresa

June 20, 1965 — January 31, 2026

Theresa “Terri” Fichter passed away suddenly after a lifetime of health challenges that she faced with remarkable strength, grace, and stoicism.

Small in stature but immense in spirit, Terri had a way of winning hearts wherever she went. Growing up with three older brothers and a sister, and later discovering and connecting with her extended birth family, brought her deep joy. Belonging mattered deeply to Terri, and she cherished every connection she made.

She remained actively involved in her community, whether through Kelowna’s annual Stride with Pride walk or her participation on committees at McGivney Manor. The close friendships she formed at McGivney Manor meant the world to her, and her days were brightened by the companionship, laughter, and support she shared with those she held dear there.

Above all, Terri loved her family and friends. She was endlessly thoughtful and compassionate, always placing the needs of others before her own. Her kindness, warmth, and generous spirit will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

Plans for a Celebration of Life with family and friends will be shared at a later date.
