March 12, 1944 – October 14, 2017
at the age of 73 years
Please join the family for an open house on Monday, November 13, 2017, 2:00-6:00 pm at the Prestige Harbourfront Resort, Salmon Arm (Grand Ballroom) to celebrate his life.
It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to Waldon “Wally” Johannes Kernested. Wally passed away on Saturday, October 14, 2017 after a long list of health issues. Wally was born in Ashern, Manitoba on March 12, 1944. He was predeceased by his partner Debbie Thompson in 2009.
Wally was a great man who loved his family dearly. He leaves behind his son Trevor and his son Mark and daughter in law Renee along with his three grandchildren Jeanine (Brett), Kaitlin and Ryan and his new great granddaughter Hailey.
Wally loved socializing with his friends and he could usually be found at the pub or on the golf course enjoying a beer and offering advice.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of BC and the Kidney Foundation of Canada will be accepted at his memorial.
So sad to hear of Uncle Wally’s passing. Our sincere condolences to Trevor, Mark and family.
Pam and Graem Freeman.
Wally was a wonderful man and step father and he will never be forgotten.
I will be eternally thankful for all he did for my mom (Debbie Thompson). I hope they are together again…
My deepest and sincerest condolences to his children and grandchildren. My heart breaks for you and with you.
Sincerely,
Crystal May-Moser
