REINSON; AUDREY ELAINE REINSON On September 18th, 2011 Audrey Elaine (Waters) Reinson passed away peacefully in her Kamloops home. She is survived by her loving children: daughters Jodi (Eugene) and Kristi (Sean); son Guy; grandchildren Tenasia, Tucker, Jorja (father Graham) and Shayla of Kamloops; sister Ellyn (Buck) Scotton of Mayfair, SK; special nieces Dawn, Joann and Heather and their families. She was predeceased by parents Ernest and Alice Waters. Audrey reminisced fondly of her childhood growing up on her parent's farm in the Mayfair District of Saskatchewan. Audrey married Don Reinson in June 1968 while working at the University of Saskatchewan. After her daughter Jodi and son Guy were born in North Battleford, SK, the family moved west, following Don's electrical career to Williams Lake, BC where daughter Kristi was born. Audrey's young family eventually settled in Kamloops in 1975. Audrey requested that a special thank you be sent out to the Kamloops Thompson Teachers Association for thirty plus years of amazing employment and for all of their unconditional support. She also requested a thank you to her "wonderful relatives and friends near and far for their bountiful sharing and caring" throughout her life. Audrey was happiest when surrounded by her loving network of family and friends, hosting a celebration rich with music, warm meals and laughter. We are incredibly grateful to have been embraced by Audrey's generous, loving presence and to have had such an amazing role model. All who knew Audrey would agree that she blessed this world with her life, and humbly set an example of how to be a mother, grandmother, relative and friend. She was truly a beautiful soul, who was quick to laugh and able to make those around her feel special and welcome. No funeral service will be held as per Audrey's request. A celebration of her life will be held in Kamloops at a later date. ____________________________________________________
