In loving Memory of Marie Dianne Matwick
We share with deep sadness that Marie Dianne Matwick(Wolfe) (October 18th, 1952) passed away on Monday June 22nd, 2026 at Kelowna Hospice House. Marie leaves behind two sisters, Glenda Weglo, Donna Johnson and brother Roger Wolfe, 18 nieces and nephews and her beloved dog Shandi.
Marie was predeceased by her parents William and Clara Wolfe and her husband Ray Matwick.
Marie moved to Kelowna from Saskatchewan with her parents and siblings in July 1966. Marie graduated from Dr. Knox High School and then attended the University of Victoria where she received her teacher’s degree.
Marie loved to teach. She started her 47 year teaching career in Ocean Falls B.C. before moving to 100 Mile House where she taught kindergarten/ grade 1 at Horse Lake Elementary from 1976 to 2021. Marie always spoke very fondly of 100 Mile House, the many children she taught over 4 decades, her fellow teachers and her friends.
After her retirement in 2021, Marie moved to Kelowna to be closer to her family.
There will be no funeral by request.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada or the Alzheimer Society of Canada.
