GOTTLIEB TONN
GOTTLIEB TONN - FINALLY HOME - At the age of 100 years and 9 1/2 months, after a courageous battle with cancer, God has taken our Dad to Heaven. Gottlieb was born in Poland on November 16, 1909. He immigrated to Canada in 1929. In 1933 he married Anna Rabel, and together they went to Bibleschool in Medicine Hat, AB. He became a pastor of the Church of God and served congregations in Alberta and Saskatchewan. In 1949 he moved to Kelowna with his family where he planted a church which today is the Church of God on Mission Springs Drive. Gottlieb was predeceased by his first wife Anna, his second wife Martha, his daughter Esther, daughter-in-law Barb, and six great grand children. He is survived by four sons, Alfred, Lenard (Marlene), Lloyd (Edith), Alvin, four daughters Thelma Tribiger (Willie), Arlene Enns (Abe), Elaine Gusse (Don), Loretta Sonnenberg (Gordon), son-in-law John (Betty), 27 grandchildren, 70 great grandchildren, 1 great great granddaughter, a host of nieces, nephews and extended family. A funeral service will be held at the Church of God, 3705 Mission Springs Drive, on Saturday, September 11 at 11:00 A.M. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Gideons International. We would like to thank the staff at Springvalley Care Centre for their compassionate care during the last fifteen months. God Bless you all.

DAWSON, IAN
DAWSON, IAN GEOFFREY JULY 11, 1971 - AUGUST 31, 2010 We are sad to announce the passing of our loved one Ian Geoffrey Dawson. Ian died on Tuesday August 31, 2010 in the ICU at Kelowna General Hospital after a month long battle with pneumonia. He leaves to mourn his passing his much loved and treasured daughter Julia, his friend and wife Carrie, parents Geoff and Karen Dawson, brother Brian Saunders (Teresa), sister Maria Alford (Scott), many aunts, uncles, cousins, and special niece Chelsea. He was predeceased by his sister Kathleen and both sets of grandparents. Ian was born in Prince George on July 11, 1971 and lived in Kamloops before moving to Kelowna in 1986. He graduated from Mt. Boucherie High School in 1989 and BCIT in 2001. He worked for Viscount Systems until his courageous 20 year battle with CVID made it impossible to work. Always looking for the positive he said it gave him more time to spend with Julia. Illness took so much from him but it couldn’t crush his inner strength, his humour, his determination to cram as much into his remaining time with Julia. He was an awesome Dad who delighted in making his daughter Julia laugh with his many funny voices. In accordance with his wishes there will be no formal service but friends and family are invited to join Julia and her family for a casual gathering to share a memory or story about her father. In lieu of flowers please do an act of random kindness in his memory. Condolences can be sent to email: iandawson@telus.net. A gathering will be held on Saturday September 4, 2010 from 1:00pm to 3:00pm at his parent’s home at #140 - 445 Yates Road, Kelowna.
