She married Al in June 1951 and they lived happily on a farm in Aylesbury, SK where they raised their four children. She continued to nurse for 27 years, becoming the Matron and then C.E.O. of Craik Community Hospital. “You are an amazing person Mom; such an inspiration to all who met you. We are so lucky to have had you in our lives and you will be truly missed.”
