We Remember

O’CONNOR, Glen

April 1, 1957 — February 28, 2023

With a deep sense of loss, we announce that Glen O’Connor, at age 65, passed away while surrounded by the love of his family, on February 28, 2023.

Glen Grew up in Montreal, QC, he moved to Calgary, AB, and then to British Columbia. In his younger years, he loved to dirt bike, as the years passed he took up playing pool, golf, and bowling. A free spirit, Glen toured throughout the USA in a camper van and was regularly self-employed in various trades. One of his long-term ventures was owing a Pressure Washing Company. But, life changed dramatically for Glen in April 1966; a fall, that resulted in a head injury, altered his future forever. For the past 13 years, he lived at Connect Communities in Lake Country, BC, where the quality of his life was awesome!

A Celebration of Life to honour Glen will be held later this spring.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Canadian Cancer Society or Brainstreams – BrainTrust Canada (Kelowna Office).

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.
