We Remember

WEBB, Barbara Ann “Barb”

June 21, 1951 — April 8, 2025

On April 8, 2025, Barbara Ann Webb (née Scott) passed away peacefully at Hospice House in Kelowna, BC.

Barb was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend. She is survived by her husband of 51 years, Doug; her daughter Carolyn (Chris); son Matt; and grandchildren Nathan, Maya, and Donovan. She is also survived by her brother Robert (Sharon, Nedine, Brandon). Barb was embraced by her husband’s large extended family, including surviving siblings Josie, Amy (Don), Marge, and Bob (Louise). She was loved by many nieces, nephews, grandnieces, grandnephews, cousins, and their families.

Barb was predeceased by her parents, James and Irene Scott. She was born on June 21, 1951 in St. Paul’s Hospital in Vancouver, BC, and lived in a little house in Burnaby with her family. She graduated from Notre Dame in 1969, then became a Medical Office Assistant and worked in the field for many years.

She married Doug in 1974. Barb and Doug moved to Kamloops in 1975 and welcomed their daughter in 1977. Barb was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1978, and she always fought back against the challenges of her disease. Barb and Doug welcomed their son in 1981. While raising their family, they lived in Kamloops, Penticton, and Kelowna. Family and friends were very important to Barb, and she was always there to lend a helping hand at any time. She was thrilled to become a grandma and was very proud of her grandchildren.

Barb was very artistic, enjoyed making crafts, was an excellent cook and baker, and was an avid gardener. She was the family historian and was passionate about genealogical research, tracing multiple branches of the family tree back many generations. She also enjoyed keeping track of all new family members. She was quite a detective with historical documents and often helped others research their own family histories.

Barb spent the past year courageously living with cancer. She was grateful for time spent with loved ones and for all the love and support offered to her. She touched many lives with her kindness, her love, and her beautiful spirit. She will be deeply missed.

    I’m so sorry for your loss. Barb was such a kind, thoughtful person, and I have so many special memories of her from the summers I spent with my grandma. She made those summers fun — always taking us out for lunch, driving us around, and filling our days with warmth and laughter. She was so generous, even giving me a graduation gift that I’ll always remember. She was truly a light in our lives, and I know my grandma treasured their friendship deeply. She’ll be missed more than words can say.

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.

Jacquelene Bluschke

I liked the personal treatment given to my mother who is 97 years old. As her representative, I found Springfield employees pleasant and sincere, helpful and knowledgeable. Something I didn’t know, was that the funeral home would help me get through the paperwork need at this time. I am very thankful for that.

Janice Cornell

Genuine concern, excellent service, very professional. Since this was my first experience (with a funeral home), everything was above and beyond what I expected.

Randy Hatanaka

Thank you to your team for your kindness to me at a very challenging time.  You have now taken care of both of my parents with professionalism and care.

Nancy Farran

Springfield Funeral Home is always professional, caring and very knowledgeable.  We appreciate that you have dedicated staff for all needs from planning the service to completing government paperwork.

Timothy Morio Tahara

I am not sure there was anything you could have done to make a very intense emotional time less stressful.  Although we hadn’t expected Ken to want a service, when he said we needed to have one for us not him, it was true.  Your sincerity and compassion meant everything to us.  Thank you.

Gwen Harvie

David Henseleit, your compassion and professionalism is truly amazing!  The entire staff were courteous, super professional and caring as each guest arrived.  Everything was done to perfection!

Myra Neuman

Keep up the good work that you do as it is such an important service you provide.  It is still the most difficult time in a person’s life.  Your kindness is so appreciated.  We appreciated the peace of mind that everything was being looked after.

Gloria Couture

You provide a wonderful service for people going through a traumatic time.  Thank You.  The kindness and professionalism shown by the staff at Springfield Funeral Home was exemplary.
