We Remember

FROST, Betty Ann Gloria

October 30, 1947 — August 14, 2025

It is with great love and sadness that we announce the sudden loss of Betty Ann Gloria Frost, who passed away on August 14, 2025, at the age of 77.

She leaves behind her husband Bob; daughter Joanna (Jeff); son Justin; granddaughter Maddie; great-granddaughter Eloise; sister Janet Hait; brother Clarence (Lynn) Rode; and many other loved family members and friends.

Betty Ann was born in Kelowna on October 30, 1947, to Traute and Fred Hemmerling. She attended Glenmore Elementary, Dr. Knox, and KSS before continuing her education at the Christian Training Institute for a year. She began her career working in records at Kelowna General Hospital as a medical stenographer, and later went on to spend over 20 years as a medical office assistant. Throughout her life, Betty Ann remained deeply connected to her roots in Kelowna, becoming one of the founding members of Trinity Baptist Church, where she also shared her musical gifts by playing piano for the male choir.

Gifted with creativity and talent, Betty Ann poured her heart into many artistic pursuits. She loved music, crocheting, needlework, watercolour painting, and interior decorating. Known as an excellent gift giver, she put thought and love into every detail. She was also a wealth of knowledge, thoughtful, capable, and steadfastly committed to her family.

Betty Ann was devoted to her husband Bob, with whom she shared 54 years of marriage, and cherished her roles as a loving wife, mom, nana, and great-nana. She had a gift for keeping in touch with friends and family, near and far, leaving an impression of warmth, love, and connection wherever she went.

She will be deeply missed.
