Low, Marlene Goldie
October 12, 1943 – September 2, 2025
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Marlene Goldie (Boyd) Low on September 2, 2025.
Marlene was born on October 12th, 1943 at the Rabbit Lake Union Hospital, the first child of Violet and Earl Boyd. She grew up on the family farm near Medstead, SK, along with her siblings; Audrey, Gerry and Donna. Marlene graduated high school in 1962 and left the farm shortly after to attend Saskatoon Business College. She remained working in Saskatoon until 1969, when she met and married William Low, a farmer from Davidson.
They enjoyed a wonderful life together, raising their four children on the farm. In 1992, with the nest almost empty, Will retired, and they moved into Davidson.
Marlene enjoyed aquasizing and gardening in the summer, being an active member of the United Church, going on adventures with the Red Hat Ladies and spending time with the Davidson Seniors Group. However, her greatest joy was her grand (and great grand) children.
She will be sadly missed by her three sons, Warren, Steven (Lana) and Ryan (Michelle); daughter Andrea (Kenny); grandchildren, Raila, Justin, Dylan, Dalton, Keiran and Will; great grandchildren; Elena, Jaxtyn and Aelin; sisters Audrey Boyd and Donna (Charlie) Littlemore; sister-in-law Shirley Boyd; brother-in-law Leslie Taylor and numerous nieces, nephews and friends.
Marlene was predeceased by her husband of 35 years, William Low; parents Earl & Violet (Blixrud) Boyd; Will’s parents, Alex & Ella (McNaughton) Low; brother Gerry Boyd; Will’s sisters and husbands: Jean Taylor, Dorothy & Howard Moore, Kathleen & Arthur Morrison and Margaret & Gordon Crawford; also 4 nephews.
A celebration of Marlene’s life was held on September 6, 2025 in the Davidson United Church. For those wishing, memorial donations can be made to the Davidson Health Trust Fund or Davidson Child Care Inc. Hanson’s Funeral Home of Davidson was in care of arrangements.
Lift up your glass so I can share,
Enjoy yourselves,
And I’ll be there.
