During their lifetime together Lucille and Ellis lived within the city of Prince Albert prior to living on their acreage just south of Prince Albert for almost 25 years. They also took pride in and enjoyed spending time at their cottage at Emma Lake. Lucille had many pastimes including baking, knitting, reading, aquasize, skiing, travelling, and socializing with friends and family. Prior to having children, Lucille worked for the Saskatchewan Department of Forestry. Once the boys arrived, she was a dedicated stay at home Mom. When the boys were all in school, Lucille embarked on working almost 25 years as a dispatcher with the Prince Albert City Police.

After Ellis’ passing, Lucille resided at Diamond House Personal Care Home in Warman since 2018. The family wishes to express their sincere appreciation for the loving, compassionate, wonderful care provided to their mother over the past 4+ years.

Mom…
Though your smile is gone forever
And your hand we cannot touch
Of the one we loved so much
God has you in His keeping
We have you in our hearts.
