ADELL PHILIPS
June 3, 1915 - May 15, 2022
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Adell Philips of Burnaby BC, born in Jaffray BC to parents Ernest and Lily Greenwood. Adell passed away peacefully with family by her side just 3 weeks prior to her 107th birthday. She was predeceased by her husband Earl, daughter Lorayne, son in law Bob,
sisters Nellie and Evelyn, and brother Ernie. Adell will be lovingly remembered by her daughters, Cory Paterson of Williams Lake BC, Judy (Dave) Rank of Burnaby BC, son Lea (Sue) Philips of Delta BC, son in law Dave Crosson of Chilliwack BC, 8 Grandchildren; Jim, Steve (Karrie), Shauna (Jace), Donna (Dustin), Allan, Linda (Erik), Micheal (Chantalle), Jolene (Jake), as well as 19 Great Grandchildren, many Nieces, Nephews, and friends. Adell was a strong and courageous woman, raising 4 children on her own. She was a bookkeeper and stenographer, ending her working career as a legal secretary. She kept active, walking, traveling, and bowling, and was the youngest bowler on her seniors' team at the age of 91. Adell remained in her own home until the age of 106 with the help of family, caregivers, and special neighbors. Her memory was exceptional until her final days. She will be dearly missed! Special thanks to the Staff at New Vista Care Home in Burnaby. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Adell's memory to The New Vista Society online or 7232 New Vista Pl. Burnaby BC V5E 3Z3, or to a Charity of your choice.
