October 20, 1925 – September 17, 2014
at the age of 88 years
It is with great sadness that the family of Mid Sloper announces her passing on Sept 17, 2014 at Bastion Place in Salmon Arm, at the age of 88 years.
Mid was born in Vancouver on Oct 20, 1925 to parents Ernie and Anne Anderson.
She worked in the paint and wallpaper business for many years in Salmon Arm. Along with her good friend Marg they opened Painters Palette in 1988. In 2000 they closed the store and she retired from business life but stayed very involved with the Dove Rebekah Lodge working alongside with many friends raising money for community projects. She also did volunteer work for many organizations.
She leaves behind her two daughters Diana [Kevin] & Debbie [Barry], four grandchildren Kiel, Megan [Keihen], Melissa [Dustin] & Darcy, two step grandchildren Alica [Marko] & Dustin as well as two great granchildren Hailey & Payton.
She will be greatly missed by her family and many friends.
By her request there will be no service.
So sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. I knew she was having such a tough time. I just found out today and wanted to tell you know how tough it is to loose a mom..
Love to you all. Marg and Ron Hagarfdt
