British Columbia Golf Saddened To Learn Of The Passing Of Longtime Volunteer Lorna Semple
LORNA JEAN SEMPLE (NEE LITTLE) SEPTEMBER 28, 1943 – MARCH 29, 2022
It is with great sadness that British Columbia Golf has learned of the passing of longtime volunteer Lorna Semple on March 29th, 2022, at the age of 78, surrounded by the family she loved.
Her years as a volunteer and rules official at golf tournaments throughout the province with British Columbia Golf were a highlight according to her family. She particularly enjoyed her times with the Junior Boys and Girls golf tournaments.
She made many friends through BC Golf. Lorna was an avid golfer who loved to play with her “Ladies” and anyone else who was on the tee. Her love of golf and support for charities led to her organizing 12 years of the Golf 4 A Cure Charity Golf Tournament which raised over $200,000 for Cancer Research.
The family will be planning a celebration of life when the weather is warmer, and all can toast her with a glass of chilled white wine. Contributions in her memory can be made to the BC Cancer Foundation.
