We Remember

THOMPSON, Irma

—

It is with profound love and sadness on our part, and great joy on Mom’s part, that the family of Irma Thompson announce her passing on November 6, 2026, at the age of 92.

Irma was predeceased by her loving husband Ken, in September 2024, after 65 years together. Irma leaves behind her children, Norm (Karen), Barb (Peter) and Kevin (Lana); grandchildren, Mykle (Amanda), Jamie (Gavin), Tayler (Matthew), Jordan and Valor; and great-grandchildren, Dakota, Kenzy, Tanner, Maya, and Willow.

Irma grew up in rural Saskatchewan with her 7 sisters and 1 brother. At the age of 19, she returned home to care for her mother and 3 younger sisters.

A few years later, Irma married Ken Thompson. Over the next 20 years, Ken’s Air Force career saw the family move from Alberta to Germany and then to B.C. The family eventually moved to Kelowna in 1974.

Mom’s life was always full of family and friends. Irma and Ken had three children, and a huge part of Irma’s life was raising and caring for her children. Irma and Ken were very social, and time spent with friends was very important to them. A big part of their life was engaging and serving wherever they could in their local church.

Irma’s life was significantly shaped by her longing to understand her Journey of Faith to Jesus.

Our sadness at her passing is real, but it is overwhelmed by the joy of knowing that Mom’s hope and faith has been replaced with assurance as she stepped into eternity to be forever with Jesus.

We would like to thank Dr. Koss and all the staff at Mountainview Village for their kindness and exceptional care of Mom over the past two years.

Friends and Family are invited to a celebration of Mom’s life at Springfield Funeral Home, 2020 Springfield Road, on Monday, November 16, 2026, at 1:00 pm.
