In retirement she was active in volunteerism and was a member of the Okanagan Basketry Guild and a keen supporter of The Penticton Art Gallery and its activities. Like many of her family and close friends, she was an avid walker, swimmer and gardener. She especially enjoyed nature and activities of the Naturalist Club. Special thanks to the staff at Interior Health and neighbours Diane and Gordon Kupczyk and Bonnie (Don) Hilgartner and Alix MacDonald for their loving care in her final days. At Daphne's request there will be no burial service.
