We Remember

KEHLER, Bessie Kathleen

—

Passed away on Sunday, January 4, 2015 at the age of 78.  Survived by her loving family, two sons: Ed Kehler, Ron Kehler (Shelley Brew) all of Kelowna; three grandchildren: Brette, Valerie and Madeline; one brother Len Plummer of Innisfail, AB; nieces: Janet Weiss-Townsend, Susan Williams and Lee-Ann Cooley and nephew Norm Weiss.  Predeceased by her sister Anne Weiss.  Bess (a.k.a.

    I was sad to read of your mother’s death. She and I grew up together in Fort Rouge and spent our teenage years there. I remember the whole Plummer family well.
    My husband and I visited her in Kelowna several times and we phoned occasionally but it has been quite a while since we talked. She was a good friend and will be missed.
    Deepest sympathies to all the family. She was very proud of you.

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.
