LUNDIN, Hazel Elizabeth

March 28, 1928 — November 8, 2017

Hazel Lundin, resident of Westbank/West Kelowna, formerly of Peachland, passed away on November 8, 2017 at KGH at the age of 89 years. Hazel was born in New Westminster, BC on March 28, 1928 to Jack and Dolly Biggs of Whonnock, BC and grew up in Haney (Maple Ridge). She married Rayno Lundin in 1949 and lived in many BC communities until settling in Peachland in 1968. She is survived by her loving family: children: Gary (Sandi), Glen (Norma), Penny (Jim) Flinders, Arno (Priscilla); grandchildren: Lesa (Ken) Gibbs, Shawna Lundin, Brad (Laura) Flinders, Robert Lundin, Tammy (Rod) Clemmer, Jay Lundin; great grandchildren Hailley and Josh Gibbs; sister Annie Voth; extended family: Gayle, Jaxx, Dawnie, Billie and many more family and friends. Hazel enjoyed short careers as a nurse and telephone operator before becoming a grade school teacher which she practiced until retirement; she was well liked and is still acknowledged by many of her students. She was well known for being a great wife and mom to her kids, including all of their friends. She was positive, happy and always there for you. She enjoyed playing bridge, cards, games, knitting and crocheting. She was a good bowler, winning a trip to Reno and qualifying for the World Championships in Vancouver.  She was also a key volunteer for the Peachland Historical Society in writing the “Peachland Memories”.

Hazel will now join her Husband Rayno of 53 years and her son Ivor of recent.

    How fortunate I was to meet up with Hazel on the substitute teacher circuit many decades ago.
    She was always so cheery. We enjoyed a chat and a laugh together whenever we had the chance.
    Hope wonderful memories help her family and dear friends through this sad time.
    With sincere sympathy, Anne Coster

    I was lucky enough to have know Hazel for 40 years and shared many laughs and some tears at her kitchen table. She was kind, positive and used her skills as a teacher to try and guide Arno and I into the best direction in life, sometimes in vain. I will miss her smile and warm greeting hugs! Rest in Peace.

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.
