January 29, 1924 - May 24, 2023

It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Alice Marie Hudson (née Kuchler) on May 24, 2023, in Salmon Arm, in her 99th year.

Born in Giscome, BC on January 29, 1924, she moved with her family to Kelowna when she was in her late teens, where she later met and married James (Jim) Hudson. They were married for 68 years until Jim’s passing in 2015. Alice and Jim lived for a while in Burnaby before retiring back to Kelowna where they lived until Jim’s passing. She then moved to Salmon Arm to be closer to family and lived in her own home until her 98th year before moving to Lakeside Manor in Salmon Arm.

She is survived by her two sons Daryl (Kathleen) of Redwood Valley, California, and Gary (Gloria) of Salmon Arm, BC; four grandchildren; three great-grandchildren; and her sister Irene Simonson. Predeceased by her brother Joe Kuchler.

At Alice’s request, there will be no formal service. Internment will take place next to her beloved husband Jim, on Tuesday, June 6, 2023, at 10:00 am, at Lakeview Memorial Gardens Cemetery, 2850 Dry Valley Road, Kelowna, BC.

The family requests no flowers. If you wish to honour Alice’s memory donations may be made to a charity of your choice.

  Daryl & Family, my sincere condolences on the loss of your Mom. I remember your Family home on Glenwood (tbc) Avenue when we went to St. Joseph's and always wondered where in 'Heavens' name, you got to! I believe your Dad worked for the City of Kelowna (tbc)! Again, your Mom was an awesome person given her kids were pretty 'cool' many aeons years ago!
  Respectfully,
  Dave C.
