Edna Mary Israel passed away peacefully on July 18, 2014 at Chilliwack General Hospital. Edna was born on November 14, 1922 to Bill and Ethel Bellamy in the family's farmhouse in Saskatchewan. She was predeceased by her first husband, Hugh Nicholl; her second husband, Howard; brothers, Stan, Art, Bob and Ernie and sisters, Ada, Margaret, Bernice and her twin sister, Iris. She is survived by her sisters, Dorothy Johnson and Jean Booth, as well as many nephews and nieces. There was never a "free ride" throughout Edna's 91+ years; however, after finding husband Howard in 1981, she enjoyed travel and fishing and always found time to play bingo and to visit casinos. She especially enjoyed her time at Birchwood, including the excursions, cards and friends.
