Tribute

It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Sheridan (Sherry) Ann Semenzin wife, mother, and grandmother at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital after a brave battle with cancer. She was surrounded by her family. On this day Heaven gained a new Angel. Sherry meant many things to so many people and her smile will be missed. She was loved by all who knew her and she was one of those people who come along once in a lifetime and brighten the day regardless of the circumstances.

Sherry is survived by her husband of 49 years Eugene (Gene) Kenneth Semenzin, her daughter, Daneen Semenzin (Alf), her son Michael Semenzin (Jennifer) and her grandchildren, Kole, Payton, Avery, Quinn and Beckett.  In addition, she is survived by siblings Lourene Cork (Gary), Wendy Fleming, Frank Moody (Nola), John Moody (Jane), as well as her in-laws Rick Semenzin (Cheryl), Wilma Semenzin and Garry Semenzin (Audrey).

We would like to thank all the doctors and nurses over the years who helped her succeed in her many previous health battles. We would especially like to thank Dr. Scheibenstock who was able to help grant Sherry’s wish of going home one last time.

There will be a Celebration of Life for Sherry, September 24 at 1:00 pm at the Kimberley Convention Center, 290 North Star Blvd. Kimberley B.C.  In lieu of flowers, the family would encourage people to make a donation to the Canadian Cancer Society or any charity of your choosing.  Condolences may be left for the family at www.markmemorial.com
