The family of Murray Lloyd, a longtime resident of Davidson, are saddened to announce that he passed away on June 15, 2019 at Davidson Health Centre.
Murray was born on Dec. 19, 1936 in Cutknife, Sask. His parents Walter and Margaret farmed at Adanac and Pense before moving to Davidson in 1948 to open a service station. When the highway changed in 1954 they opened Macleod’s Store. Murray started in the store at that time. After the retirement of their parents, Murray and brother Harold continued operating the store until 1985.
Murray was very community minded. He was a member of the Kinsmen Club and Volunteer Fire Department for many years. He was a volunteer driver and enjoyed curling. He also fixed many sewing machines and bikes.
Murray leaves to mourn Betty, his wife of 59 years; children Glennda (Paul) Maatman, Melody Rostie, David (Jan) Lloyd, Vaughn (Richelle) Lloyd; eight grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren; in-laws Dennis and Pat Lucki, Alice and Lynden Zimmer, Gerry and Rhonda Lucki and Milton Schilling as well as numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and longtime friends.
Murray was predeceased by his parents Walter and Margaret Lloyd, his brother Harold, sister-in-law Janet, in-laws Cliff and Margaret Lucki, brother-in-law Don Lucki, sisters-in-law Sheila Lucki and Sandra Schilling.
The funeral service was held in Davidson Sacred Heart Catholic Church on June 21, 2019. Bishop David Ashdown officiated assisted by Rev. Tracy Taylor. Hanson’s Funeral Home of Davidson was in care of arrangements. For those so wishing, memorial donations in memory of Murray may be directed to Davidson Fire Department.
It is with great sadness that the family of Linda Margaret Fink announces her passing on
December 15, 2018, at the age of 69. Linda will be forever lovingly remembered by her children, Gregory Fink (with his wife Yolanda), Jeffrey Fink and Cindy Linton (with her husband Peter).
Linda was immensely proud of her family and leaves behind many beautiful memories for all who knew her. She is greatly missed and fondly remembered by her six grandchildren (Deanna, John, Tim, Lily, Ian and Kaylee) and her two great grandchildren (Vanessa and Landon).
Born to Emil and Elizabeth Ziefflie on August 19th, 1949 in Davidson, Saskatchewan. Linda is survived by her Mother (Elizabeth) as well as her four Sisters (Betty-Ann, Diane, Pat and Gayle) and her Brother (Brian) and their respective families. Linda is also survived by her sister in law (Pat) and brother in law (Francis) and their families. Linda was predeceased by her loving husband John, infant daughter Vikki, her father Emil Ziefflie, mother-in-law Blanche and father-in-law Alec Fink, brothers-in-law (D. Hart and D. Kuemper), nieces (J. Dixon and C. Potter), nephew (B. Kuemper), and great-nephew (C. Dixon).
As per Linda’s wishes no funeral was held and cremation has already taken place. Linda did not want a lot of fuss made over her passing and we ask that you remember her in your own way. Linda loved being at the lake, cheering on the Saskatchewan Roughriders, her favorite Edmonton Oilers and hanging out with her family. Those who wish to honour her memory may send donations to any children’s charities or a charity of your own choosing. Next time that you are at the lake, take a moment to think of just how much she would love to be there with you as it was always a special place for her.
Linda received excellent care from her medical team during her short illness. The family would like to thank her Doctors, the Fort Sask. Comm. Hospital staff, the Palliative Nurses and the Rivercrest Palliative Care team. Arrangements entrusted to First Memorial Funeral Service Riverview Chapel, Fort Saskatchewan, AB 780-998-9898
