Each of the
Walks was dedicated to an Honoree – a person who has been impacted by Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia.
This
Investors Group Walk for Memories was dedicated to
Vi Hoyt.

Vi Hoyt is a strong woman who doesn’t mind being different. She is quick to smile and giggle, and is very happy and friendly.
Born in Kirkland Lake, Ontario on July 30, 1935, she had four older siblings. Like all youngest born, she was teased by her older siblings. As the story goes, she once threw a cat at her sister, Bernice, in retaliation. At family reunions, they would dance and sing for hours.
Shortly after marrying, she had three children of her own: Christine, Anthony and Jennifer. In 1966, she became a single parent at a time when divorce was frowned upon.
She earned a blackbelt in Karate and was an instructor as well. She directed and acted in plays with the Pembroke Little Theatre. She worked as a loans officer, payroll clerk, and co-owned a temp service. At 52, she went back to school and became a sexual abuse counselor.
She remarried in June 1995 and gained another daughter through marriage, Charlene. Vi is also a grandparent to five children.
Thanks for
Walking Fraser Valley - for Vi Hoyt and the more than 70,000 individuals and families in B.C. who are living with dementia.
