We Remember
MAGEL, Ruth Margaret
February 3, 1928 — March 26, 2026
Ruth Margaret Magel, aged 98, passed away peacefully on March 26, 2026, in Kelowna, British Columbia.
She was predeceased by her beloved husband, Harold, with whom she shared sixty-five years of happy times and a lifetime of love.
She will be lovingly remembered by her children, Cathy (Derry), Sue (Dominic), and Ken (Valerie), seven grandchildren, Caroline (Pat), David (Leah), Larissa (Jeff), Andrew (Sydney), Jen (Matt), Selena (Mike) and Melanie and nine great grandchildren who were the center of her world and the pride of her life.
Ruth was a woman of warmth, dedication, and quiet strength. For over thirty years, she was deeply involved with Avon, where her hard work and commitment consistently earned her a place in the President’s Club—an achievement she took pride in, not just for the recognition, but for the relationships she built along the way.
Beyond her work, Ruth found joy in the simple and meaningful things in life. She loved to dance, sew, and create, but above all, she cherished being a mother and wife. Her home was a place of care, comfort, and love, and she gave of herself generously to her family every day.
Ruth’s legacy is one of kindness, perseverance, and devotion. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered by those who knew and loved her.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Heart and Stroke Foundation.
