Mrs. Verna Joan Hamilton nee (Bergh)

January 10, 2017

Mrs. Verna Joan Hamilton nee (Bergh) loving wife and mother slipped away peacefully at Saanich Peninsula Hospital on January 10, 2017. She was diagnosed in December with cancer. She had just reached the milestone of 80 years young. She had been happily married to Ken for 61 years. She will be greatly missed and fondly remembered by her family – Ken L. (husband), Robert (son), Darlene (daughter), Katie (grand-daughter), other family members and friends. We were very impressed and thankful for the caring and thoughtfulness of the staff and volunteers in the Palliative Care Unit at Saanich Peninsula Hospital. They responded quickly to her needs and the needs of the family. One volunteer (a young lady) came into her room and played guitar and sang to her. That was a very special thing to do, which we will always remember. Verna was cremated at Hatley Memorial Gardens and interment on Tuesday Jan 24, 2017 at 2 pm.
