Brooke, September
December 10, 1962 — January 10, 2016

It is with great sadness we announce the passing of September Brooke on Jan. 10, 2016. September was born in Maple Creek, Sask., to Gerald Burt and Gloria Williams. She graduated from Davidson High School in 1980 and lived in Davidson for the remainder of her life.

September’s love of books and reading led her to pursue a career as a librarian. She worked as the branch librarian in Davidson from 1998, receiving a certificate with honours in Library Training in December 2010. Her dedication to lifelong learning and teaching is being recognized by Palliser Regional Library through the naming of the September Brooke Rural Education Bursary.

September was predeceased by her grandparents Anne and Jake Williams, Ruth and Lloyd Burt and twin daughters born prematurely in 1983. She is survived by her husband Josh; three children, Rob (Vanessa), Chantelle (Sven) and Sheldon (Aimee); grandchildren Layne and Hailey; parents Gerald and Gloria; siblings Monty (Heather) and Holly (Robin); as well as numerous nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Her family would like to thank the doctors and nurses at the Davidson Health Centre and the Saskatoon Cancer Centre for their dedication and care.

A service for September was held in Davidson on Jan. 23, 2016. Donations in her memory can be made to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada, Saskatoon Cancer Centre, and the Davidson Public Library. Arrangements were in care of Hanson’s Funeral Home.
