Evelyn Coupal
April 13, 1927 – July 13, 2011

It is with great sadness that we announce Evelyn’s passing on Wednesday, July 13, 2011, with family by her side.

Evelyn was born in Moose Jaw on April 13, 1927. She grew up in Southern Saskatchewan where she met and married Lucien, her loving husband of 55 years. They were married on October 29, 1949. Together they raised their 7 children, who were the greatest joy of their lives. From the time her children were young, she loved the summers spent at Emma Lake and the family road trips. Countless hours were spent cheering on her grandchildren at their various activities and endeavours. Mom also enjoyed hobbies such as travelling, bowling, gardening, swimming, knitting, reading, and sewing. She will be greatly missed and forever cherished by all of her family.

Evelyn is survived by her children Gayelene Blackman, Vivian (Tom) Reay, Eunice Adams, Dale (Elizabeth) Coupal, Gloria (Joel) Brodacki and Glenda (Darrin) Bergstrom; her daughter-in-law Darlene Coupal; her grandchildren Shawn (Kim), Todd (Greg), Sheri (Blain) Christine (Kirk), Andrea, Kyla, Bradley, Derek, Krista (Dane), Stacy, Kristen (Rob), Ashlee, Keegan, Kenny, Tyler, Eric, Michael, Scott and Owen; 9 great grandchildren; her sisters Roberta (Lucas) Dreher and Kathy (Raymond) Sebastian; her brother-in-law Mike Coupal; and numerous nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.

She was predeceased by her husband Lucien; her son Neal; her parents Robert and Katherine Becker; and her sister Ida (Max) Weimer.
