Memorials Audrey Varcoe, wife of Donald Varcoe, passed into the presence of her Lord on Wednesday, November 30, 2011 at the age of 77. In 1993, Donald and Audrey transferred from the Saskatchewan District into the BC/Yukon District where they were called as Lead Pastor of Princeton Pentecostal Tabernacle, before retiring in Port Moody. A memorial service was held on December 5, 2011 in Port Moody. Edna Grace Lynn passed into the presence of her Lord on Wednesday, December 14, 2011 at the age of 98. She met her husband John in 1940 and together they took up the pastorate in Wiarton, Ontario. They went overseas to Africa in 1946. Edna and John served in various capacities overseas, and particularly in Kenya, Zambia and Mozambique for 43 years until their retirement in Kelowna, BC where they continued to inspire and encourage others in the Missions calling. Edna is survived by her children Janice Scheske (Don) and Jillian Lynn-Lawson (John), grandchildren, and great-grandchildren and predeceased by her husband John and their son Jesse. A Memorial Service was held on Friday, January 6, 2012 at 11:00 am at Evangel Church, Kelowna.
