JONATHAN DAN BOTTERILL

Jon, age 77, passed away peacefully, leaving behind a legacy of love, generosity, and wisdom. Born in Edmonton and raised in Winnipeg, Jon spent the last 20 years of his life in Kelowna, where he embraced the beauty and lifestyle of the Okanagan.

Jon was predeceased by his parents, Daniel and Edith, and his sisters, Judy and Cam.

Jon devoted more than 30 years to a successful career in financial planning. Throughout his career, Jon built many lasting relationships, clients often became lifelong friends, a reflection of the trust, care, and genuine interest he showed to everyone he met.

He had a deep love of research and was always eager to share his knowledge with others. Whether offering advice, encouragement, or support, Jon was happiest when helping those around him succeed.

Above all else, Jon treasured his family. He was their biggest cheerleader, always encouraging, teaching, and supporting those he loved most. He will be dearly missed for his guidance, encouragement and unwavering love. His absence will be deeply felt by his beloved wife, Janice; his children, Lindsay (Chris), Conner, Richard (Jackie), and Carly; and his grandchildren. He will also be lovingly remembered by his extended family, including his mother and father-in-law, brothers and sisters-in-law, nephews, neices, and many dear friends.

The family would like to express heartfelt gratitude to the medical teams who cared for Jon over the years, and especially to the palliative care team whose compassion and support were instrumental during his final months. Jon and his family deeply appreciated the love and support shown by friends and family throughout his journey.

At Jon's request, a formal service will not be held. The family will gather privately to celebrate Jon's life and the lasting impact he had on all who knew him.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Central Okanagan Hospice Association.
