Upon returning to Lethbridge, he met the love of his life, Florence Osberg and they were married in 1948. Wallace entered the milling industry and became a manager for Ellison Milling for over 40 years. Wallace loved spending time with family and traveling with Florence and their daughter. He enjoyed gardening and was thrilled by donating it to whoever wanted to eat it. Wallace was a hard working, caring man who will be sadly missed by his family and friends. A Private Family Graveside Service was held at Mountain View Cemetery. Thank you to Dr. Lowe and his staff for taking care of him. By his request, no funeral will be held.
