Jenny Ransom – Celebration of Life

Dear family and friends,
Thank you to everyone who has reached out with condolences, cards, memories, hugs and kind words (and lots of yummy goodies!) following Mom/Jenny’s sudden passing. Your support has meant so much to all of us.
We would be honoured to have you join us at a Celebration of Life for Jenny on Sunday, July 19th, 2026 at 10:00am PDT. The Celebration will be at the Greenview Taphouse (Fairwinds Golf Clubhouse) at 2730 Fairwinds Drive, Nanoose Bay, BC. Following a few words from family and friends, we will gather and have time to share memories of Jenny over light refreshments.

Please RSVP via this link by July 11, 2026. This will help us to confirm catering numbers and to send the live-stream information to those who are unable to attend in-person.

A gentle reminder that if you have a story, memory, or photo(s) you would like to share, we would be grateful if you could add it to Jenny’s memorial page

In lieu of flowers, donations in Jenny’s memory can be made on our Canada Helps page

We hope you can join us, in person or in spirit, as we gather to remember and celebrate the life of our beloved Jenny/Mom.

With love,
Tony, Andrew, and David

President’s Message

July 2026

Happy Birthday, Canada! As we celebrate the 159th anniversary of Confederation this July 1st, I can’t help but feel lucky, privileged and proud to be Canadian. With the current situation to the south of the 49nth, it has only reinforced how fortunate we are to be called Canadian. We certainly have our differences as we travel from coast to coast, and there are diverse cultural changes as well. In my eyes this is a bonus. For those of you who have not yet travelled Canada in depth, I highly recommend you do. This country we call home has something for every interest.  It is like visiting four or five different countries whilst not leaving Canada. If travelling outside of Canada, it is nice to know you can wear our flag almost anywhere and be welcomed.  

Don’t forget our picnic on July 16, sign up by July 4th. Best five dollars you will spend.

Wishing you all a safe and fun Canada Day—and a month filled with good company and new adventures. 

President Pat
