Mom was born on May 5, 1921 to Beatrice and Charles Mix of Vermilion, AB. After completing high school, she attended Alberta College and later worked as a stenographer for a Vermilion law firm and then the Alberta Treasury Branch.

Mom was kind and generous, always put family first, and the love and example she set will be with us always. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.

Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

As each Christmas approaches I remember with fondness the childhood anticipation of the big box of Christmas gifts that arrived for us each year from our dear Auntie Florence. All five of us children received two or three treasures that had been carefully selected and wrapped with loving hands. This is one of the memories of the love and kindness of your mother and wife that I continue to hold in my heart each year. I share your loss. Love and prayers, Lucille - Posted by: Lucille Reinhart (Family) on: Dec 11, 2010
