ROSTECKI, Mildred

ROSTECKI It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of MILDRED MARION ROSTECKI, who was called home to her Lord, passing away peacefully in the early hours of May 24th, 2023, at Extendicare in Vulcan Alberta at the age of 79 years after several years battle with dementia. Mildred will be lovingly remembered by her family and friends as the God-fearing, passionate, defined, and independent woman she always strived to be.
Mildred was raised in Rocky Mountain House and then became a graduate of Red Deer Secretarial College in 1963 which led her to a successful career as the head business administrator in the Salmon Arm B.C.’s Mental Health department which she retired in 2008. Mildred enjoyed the simple pleasures of life by buzzing like a bee in her garden and reaping its rewards, immersing herself in a great book, loving her animals, listening to uplifting gospel music, volunteering at the soup kitchen, as well as her greatest love, attending her faith and worshipping her Lord and Savior with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Mildred was preceded in death by her parents Earl and Daisy Bryant, her half-siblings Walter, Hazel, Margaret, Donald, Dan, and her Husband Walter Rostecki. Mildred is survived by her two children, Jay Barton (Colleen), and Jantina Conners (Brian), and also by her 4 siblings, Emily Steer (Barry), Robert Bryant (Geraldine), Alice Larsguard, and Edith Stewart (Ken), as well as her 6 grandchildren, Winona (Eldon Rylee), Faleen, Quinn, Talitha, Aidan, and Dalon, including her great grandchild Adelaida.
Mildred will have a Graveside Memorial at Temple Hill Cemetery in Raymond Alberta on Friday, June 2nd, 2023, at 10:00 am. Any donations can be made to the Lethbridge & District Humane Society in Mildred’s name.
