Marjorie Deborah (Debbie) Shypitka

1949 - 2017

Debbie passed away unexpectedly on Monday, May 22, 2017 at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital

with her family by her side. She was born in Smiths Falls, Ontario and was one of nine children born to Barbara and

Archibald Graham.

Debbie was the beloved wife of Larry whom she

met in Ottawa, Ontario in 1968, married in 1969

and eventually settled in Cranbrook where they

spent 48 years together. They raised three children

who survive her: Rob (Ramona), John (Rhonda)

and Angye (Travis) along with eight grandchildren.

Also surviving her are one sister and four brothers

in Eastern Ontario and three brothers-in-law, Mel,

Gord and Mike in BC. Debbie was predeceased by

her parents, one sister, two brothers, father-in-law

and one brother in law.

To those that knew her, she will be fondly

remembered as a very caring and family oriented

person. We will all cherish the memory that Family

meant the most to her.

Debbie has been cremated and requested that

there be no funeral service. The family will gather

at a later date to hold a private celebration of her

life. Those wishing to remember her may do so by

making a donation to the charity or foundation of

choice. Condolences may be left for the family at
