Heidi Hall was a caring wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, sister and friend. On Jan 29th, 2022, she left this world peacefully, surrounded by family. She was born March 5, 1940 in Berlin, Germany.

Heidi’s commitment to family was unwavering. She was the glue that brought us together. She had a love for travel and enjoyed capturing the beauty of nature through photography and gardening. Hummingbirds held a special place in her heart and her home was filled with all forms of hummingbird decor. You would often find her in the kitchen as she loved entertaining with family and friends. Her warm embrace left you knowing you were loved. She worked as a healthcare provider prior to her retirement.

Heidi is survived by her immediate family Alan, Stuart, Jeffrey, Leigh, David and grandchildren Jake, Angeleena and Ethaniel, her sister Helga and her family Tanja, Diana and Jan, her brother-in-law Brian and nieces Alison and Jacqueline. She was preceded in death by her husband Ambrose James (Bud) Hall.

The family will hold a private ceremony as per Heidi’s wishes. In lieu of flowers, donations can be sent to Victoria Hospice.

Judy passed suddenly from heart disease and is predeceased by her mum, Dawn Kulsky (Kilcup) & dad Edwin Kulsky (Krywokulsky). She leaves behind her best friend Roberta, sister Marianne, and brothers Michael and William and several aunts, nieces, nephews and many friends and colleagues.

Judy was born in Calgary and was often nostalgic about life on the ranch, but she never was sentimental about the worst of Alberta winters. Judy loved Sidney and Sidney was her home for most of her life.

Judy was a very outgoing extrovert and seemed to know most everyone up and down Beacon Avenue. Paradoxically, she was also a very private person. Judy compartmentalized different aspects of her life and, like the who-dun-it novels and movies she loved, she left behind many clues for us to find about the different chapters in her life.

Judy lived modestly and comfortably and surrounded her self with the things she liked. Its impossible to mention Judy’s home without mentioning her overwhelming collection of Betty Boop memorabilia. There was no place in her home that Betty Boop was out of sight.

All that knew Judy are invited to a Celebration of Life that will be held 2021 November 5 (Fri), 12:30 at the Mary Winspear Centre – 2243 Beacon Avenue, Sidney, BC. All current Covid Protocols will be observed, bring your Vax Card. A special thanks to all the doctors, nurses and health care professionals that helped Judy along her journey. Also, thanks to her colleagues at Thrifty’s and for the catering they generously will provide on Friday.
