ENID PEARL CHARLOTTE WILLARD

It is with heavy hearts and great sorrow that we announce the passing of Enid Pearl Charlotte Willard.
Pearl passed away quickly on Thursday, May 14, 2015, with family by her side, at the Kelowna General Hospital.
Pearl (nicknamed Tom) was born in Emo, Ont. to Albert and Martha Stevens, and lived in Rainy River District during her childhood.
Pearl was a homemaker during her early adult life—kept busy by her 18 children.
She had a great love of all types of music. Many an hour was spent singing along with her LPs while baking something sweet in the kitchen for her family.
She also loved gardening and reading, especially romance novels.
Pearl was predeceased by five brothers, Arthur Maisey, Albert Robert Stevens, Louis Stevens, Allan Stevens, and Harvey Stevens; and seven sisters, Florence Stevens, Audrey Lola Stevens, Ethel Smith, Violet Fraser, Nora Jean Dunsmore, Elizabeth Stevens, and Alice Kellar.
Left to mourn are her sisters, Lois Whiteside and Eva Demchuk.
Pearl was predeceased by three husbands, Theodore Daw, Wilhelm Richert, and Norm Willard; and four of her sons, Steven Daw, Kimberley Daw, Vincent Daw, and Michael Daw.
She is survived by 14 children, Patricia Ohalloron (Jim), Gerald Daw (Denise), Judy Snider (Ralph), Teresa MacLean (D.A.), Derwent Daw (Shannon), Cheryl Mose (Eldon), Stanley Daw (Laura), Gregory Daw, Chandra Ponce, Charlene Hamilton (Mike), David Daw (Darlene), Lorrance Daw (Barb), Micheal Daw (Sandy), and John Richert (Tami).
She also is survived by many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren.
Also missing her greatly are many friends and family, Dona MacLean, Ella Rae, Tina Daw, Ardell Stevens, Yetta McNeil, and Marilyn Betts; and all of the residents at Evangel Apartments in Kelowna.
Her ashes will join family members later this year in Emo, Ont.
Pearl was loved by many and will be greatly missed.
