GERK, Margaret It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing on January 9, 2014, of our dear Mom, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother, Margaret Gerk. Mom is survived by her five children, John (Joyce), Bill (Kathy), Tom (Pat), Ted (Marina) and Debbie all of Kelowna, as well as 25 Grandchildren and 20 Great-Grandchildren. She was predeceased by her loving husband, John, in 1992. Born in 1934 in Vancouver, she was raised at Copper Mountain, BC, where she met the man of her dreams and was married in 1953. She found her greatest joy in keeping up with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and maintained her faith until the end. We will miss her!
