KENWOOD, Veronica “Vera”

VERONICA “VERA” KENWOOD 1927 ~ 2025 We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Veronica Ellen Kenwood, beloved wife of the late Albert Kenwood, on July 27, 2025, at St. Therese Villa.
Left to mourn Veronica are her children Paul (Cindy), Cecily, Laura (Robert Hunt), Stephen (Jill), and Brian (Kelly); her grandchildren Camilla (Alex), Connor, and Madelaine; and her great-grandchild Weston Oliver Whitaker. She also leaves behind Kelly’s sons Ryan, Colton, and Tanner.
Veronica was born in Taber to Elizabeth and Thomas Pyne. She was the youngest of seven children and she often spoke of the vibrancy in her home. She trained as a nurse at Gonzaga University in Spokane, WA, and she worked as one until she met and married Albert. Veronica will be lovingly remembered by all for her warmth, kindness, and generous spirit. She was a keen observer of human nature and had a quick wit. We enjoyed many a fine repast at her home.
Besides her loving husband Albert, Veronica was predeceased by her parents Elizabeth & Thomas, her siblings, and most tragically, her son John Thomas.
The family would like to extend special thanks to Gwen Oliver, the caring staff at St. Therese, and to her former physician, Dr Colin Walsh.
A Funeral Mass will be held at 2:00p.m. on Tuesday, August 5, 2025, at OUR LADY OF THE ASSUMPTION CATHOLIC CHURCH, 2405 – 12 AVE S, LETHBRIDGE, AB, with Father Kevin Tumback officiating.
Interment to follow at MOUNTAIN VIEW CEMETERY, 1210 SCENIC DR S, LETHBRIDGE, AB.
