Obituary For Myrna Marie Colp

Myrna Marie Colp, resident of Grande Prairie, AB, was promoted to Glory on Saturday, September 20, 2025, in Grande Prairie, at the age of 83 years.

Born in Grande Prairie on May 17, 1942, Myrna spent her life in service to her Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. She volunteered in all facets of ministry: Sunday School teacher, prayer warrior, Christmas Kettles, and the Christian Women’s Fellowship. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend.

Mom sang for many years with her husband, Gil, and later, with her church friends as the “Harmoneez.” Mom loved going for drives in the country and spending time in nature. She and her friend, Clarice, often spent afternoons cruising through back roads in search of ice cream or for the way home.

Myrna will be dearly missed by her children, Dwight Colp (Leah Jun) and Hollis (Brett) Irvine, and her grandson Jeramiah Colp.

She was predeceased by her husband, Gilmore; her mother and father, Roberta and Fred Maile; and her brothers, Darrel and Fred Maile.

A funeral service honoring Myrna’s life will be held on Saturday, October 4, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at the Grande Prairie Salvation Army (9525 83 Ave, Grande Prairie). Following the service, friends are invited to join the family for a luncheon at The Salvation Army. At the same time, interment will take place at the Grande Prairie Cemetery (84 Ave. and 112 St.).

Memorial donations may be made to the Grande Prairie Salvation Army (https://salvationarmy.ca/) or MS Canada (mscanada.ca/).
