In loving memory ~

76 years of age

Born 30 April 1948, and passed away 28 September 2024 in Comox, BC

Irma, a resident of Courtenay, BC passed away quietly at Providence Living aka The Views on 28 September 2024. She was comforted by her husband and two of Irma's sisters who flew in from Saskatoon to see her.

Irma was born on 30 April 1948 in the Province of Saskatchewan and predeceased by her parents Victor and Mary Klein. She is survived by her husband DG (Rollie) Rowland, brothers and sisters Shirley Shumard; Alfred (Sherry) Klein; Caroline (Stewart) Doell; Walter (Mae) Klein; Connie (Warren) Morris and numerous Uncles, Aunties, nephews and nieces.

Irma completed her education and after a few civilian jobs joined the Canadian Forces and after basic training entered the Air Force and took the trade of PERI which is The Physical Education and Recreation Branch to which she spent 25 years. She had various postings around the county and then at Canadian Forces Base (19 Wing Comox) she met Rollie and they were married 21 December 1995 in Bullhead City Arizona.

I would like to thank Doctor Ricard Potter-Cogan for all the care that he provided to Irma and a special thank you to all the Nurses, Care Aides and staff at Providence Living (the old Views).
