Mom and Dad moved to Coaldale in 1970 where they became very active with their community and church. During Mom’s very active life she was friend to her many coworkers at Zellers where she worked for 30+ years and friends to her slow pitch teammates, the 29er’s. She enjoyed many years of curling and over 30 years of golfing at Indian Hill. She was a friend and confidant to her coworkers at both Rehoboth and Soup Kitchen where she volunteered for many years and was a leader and guiding hand with Girl Guides of Canada, Coaldale chapter. The Church was a significant part of her life where she was an active member of the St. Ambrose CWL for 48 years. Mom followed hockey actively, not only her grandsons through their years of playing, watching her husband’s games to supporting local WHL Teams. She enjoyed travelling with her last trip being November 2017 visiting her Mexican family.
