Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryELAINE (LANNIE) DIANE HEDBERG February 18, 1941 August 10, 2015 With aching hearts, we announce Lannie's sudden passing.

Lannie will be remembered for her compassion for children and family through her volunteer work at Ronald MacDonald House, her love of animals and Trout Lake, her inability to say no to endless charities and her selfless and giving nature. We miss her and honour her as her spirit and memories live on in us. Family would like to extend their gratitude to the Victoria General Hospital Emergency and 2nd floor staff for their warmth and compassion during this difficult time. A memorial service will be held at Chapel Lawn Memorial Gardens, Tuesday, Aug. 18, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. Donations may be made in her memory to the Canadian Diabetes Assoc. or Ronald Macdonald House.

When I heard of Lannie's passing, images of the sparkling blonde next to me in the high school yearbook came to mind. Although we took different paths in life, those high school memories are there always. Sincere condolences to Bob and family. - Posted by: Grace Nelson Ahrens (Classmate at DMCI) on: Aug 22, 2015

Dear Bob and family. We were shocked to read of Lannie's passing and wish to extend our sympathy to all of you. How often we talk of the good old days when we were in school, the guys working on cars, trips to the lake, and all the fun we used to have. May all your fond memories sustain you through this sad time. Joanne and Ron - Posted by: Ron and Joanne Gillan (High School Friends) on: Aug 18, 2015

Aunt Lannie was always so nice to me as a child and a adult, never a harsh word spoken. My heart goes out to Karen, Cathy and Uncle Bobby. The Lundman family will always remember her laugh heard from all over the house. Rest easy Auntie, you are in good hands now. Love Always Lundman Kids - Posted by: carla lundman (niece) on: Aug 18, 2015

Lannie was the best friend and neighbor in the world!!!She had a heart of gold. I have so many wonderful memories of our children growing up together, block parties on Eagle Drive, cross country skiing, meals together, going to Trout Lake and down Lake of the Woods and memories too numerous to mention. I will miss my Dear Friend immensely. I offer my deepest sympathy to Lannie's Family who will find a big hollow in their hearts. Know that I am thinking of you and offer you Bob, Cathie and Jamie and Children, and Carin my deepest sympathy. The world has lost a wonderful being.
