Maurita died as elegantly as she lived, peacefully fading away, surrounded by her loving family, classy and dignified to the end. Survived by her husband Rudy, daughters Ayrilee (Graham) and Holly, granddaughter Keelan, and sisters Bev and Syl.


She will be remembered as the most caring, empathetic and positive person anyone has ever known. Maurita set a very high bar and made a difference to many lives as she always recognized the good in people. She was loved by everyone who knew her.


We are all going to miss her warm infectious smile and her trademark “you-hoo” greeting.


In lieu of flowers, please make a contribution to help bring the planned treatment centre for Neuroendocrine Cancer to BC;  contact Alyson Meehan 604-877-6160 at the BC Cancer Foundation.


A celebration of life will be held at the Likely Community Hall, Sunday May 21, 2017 at 1:00 PM.
