Obituary of Lori Dawn WOPNFORD

December 3, 1970 – Carman, Manitoba August 7, 2018 – Calgary, Alberta It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Lori (Park) Wopnford after a courageous battle with cancer. Lori was born in Manitoba and raised on the family farm. She was a graduate of the University of Manitoba Nursing Program. She met the love of her life 30 years ago and came West to Calgary with their children- Chelsea, Owen, and Erik in 2005. She embraced the life she was living- a loving devoted mother, loyal friend, woman of faith, caregiver, mentor, and educator. Lori enjoyed time in nature- the garden, hiking, camping, and swimming. She loved tradition and making memories through adventure and travel. She cared deeply about her friends and family and lived each day in service. Lori was disciplined and set her mind on always moving forward. She built a career of supporting others as a nurse, working in Seniors Health for most of her career, and later for Albert Health Services as a Policy Advisor. Lori valued relationship and was a voice of reason in difficult situations. She is survived by her husband Stephen, children Chelsea, Owen and Erik; parents Jim and Judy Park; her brother Rob (Jeanelle [Campbell and Raina]); sister Kara Isaak (Terry [Morgan and Jackson]); parents in-law Marg and Berg Wopnford; sister in-law Laura Wopnford (Wes [Brooke]). We are forever grateful to the staff of Tom Baker Cancer Centre, and those who supported us through this challenging health journey.
