It is with the saddest of hearts that we announce the passing of Laurie Thideman. Laurie passed away August 7, 2013 at the Quesnel Hospice House. She was born April 29, 1943 in Burns Lake, BC to the late Bessie and Ernie Moore. She leaves behind her devoted husband of 51 years, Dennis Thideman. She is survived by her children Denny (Betty), Faye (Pat), Wendy (Marty) and her loving grandchildren, Patrick, Dylan, Lisa (Josh), Sarah, Logan (Amy) and Brittany.


Laurie was a beautiful woman with a kind heart, loving soul and a happy smile that touched many people in the Quesnel community. The family is deeply grateful for the outpouring of love and support in many heartfelt forms from many family and friends to be name individually but to include: Quesnel Hospice team, the Westland neighbors, Dr. Erlank, Dr. Aziz and of course the Pearl’s girls!
