It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gene Gitlarski of Coalhurst, beloved husband of Marie La Fournie, on January 31, 2013 at the age of 63 years.
Gene was born in Poland to Bazyli and Rozalita on July 8, 1949. He immigrated to Canada with his mother at the age of 11, where he lived on a farm in Saskatchewan and then Alberta for most of his life. In Gene’s 63 years, he developed a passion for nature and became a respected herbalist in Southern Alberta. He helped many people with health related problems, using only mother nature’s gifts, which he found all over the country he so loved.

Gene was predeceased by his mother Rozalita.
