Alma and Ed were our neighbours on one of our orchards in East Kelowna. They were the kindest and wonderful people anyone could know. We did enjoy that cup of tea many times in their kitchen and they were always ready to help anytime needed. Our family was fortunate to share in her bountiful garden and listen to her advice on gardening. My folks moved into the house on our orchard and they became close friends of Alma and Ed. We send our condolences to Alma's family and I am sure she will be gardening with the good Lord and looking after anyone in need.
