Official Obituary of
20/3/1913 - to - 1/3/2007
LEE, our loving father passed away with his family by his side March 1, 2007 at age of 94 years. He went to join his wife Mary, his love and soul mate of nearly 71 years. He was born March 20, 1913 on the family farm near Red Deer. His parents were Charles and Frances Moschenross. They moved to the Hillsdown district from Nebraska in 1903.
As a young man he loved tennis, rugby and hockey and later became an avid curler, even competing in the Brier. Fishing and camping with his family, especially in the mountains, was a favorite pass time. He was active in senior events; lawn bowling etc. In 1988, Red Deer's 75th Birthday, he was made Citizen of the Year.
Lee was a hardworking, successful farmer with a zest for fun in each day. He embraced life with strength, courage and wisdom. Though needing to focus daily on the many tasks of farming, he always made time for family, friends, good times, music and travel. He was a good husband, dad, friend and gentleman to all who knew him.
In their later years, Lee and Mary moved to Lethbridge and made many new friends.
