HUGHES, Kathleen: "Our Love Holds its Own Gravity, And With Our Feet off the Ground, We Are Like Angels." We mourn the loss of Kathleen Hughes. Mother of Christina (Yorgo) and Bob (Kira) and Grandmother to Farron and Stella and Olivia and Heather. Beloved Wife and Partner in all things to John. On the 19th of August 2015 with her family holding her, she slipped away. Kathy loved Life and all things in it - her family, so many, many friends, her dogs and cats, music, her beautiful homes, good food and wine, dancing and traveling. She was never still, always generous and always present. For over 50 years she was a compassionate nurse - much of that time at Penticton hospital and then finishing a remarkable career working alongside John at the Martin St. Clinic. People she cared for often approached her on the street and in shops with open arms, big smiles and gratitude. Rock Creek was her heart home with John for 35 years. Together they worked at the clinic, walked the dogs, loved the garden, the birds and the deer, hosted parties, cooked food and welcomed everyone who came through their door. Kathy played the piano beautifully and sang Opera to her two kids when they were young. She went to every concert she could including Squamish Live 2014! We will miss her in our lives so very much and hold her in our hearts forever. Kathy, there will always be flowers and a lighted candle on the table. Celebration of Life, August 29th, 2pm at the Hughes Family Home, Rock Creek, BC.
