SCHERLOSKI, Marjorie
Posted: October 5th, 2016
MARJORIE SCHERLOSKI (ANTOSH), of Lethbridge, beloved wife of Ronald Scherloski, passed away at the Chinook Regional Hospital on Sunday, October 2, 2016 at the age of 88 years.
Marjorie was born to Frank and Annie Antosh in Esterhazy, Sask., on July 23, 1928. She married Ron on Oct. 6th, 1959. A loving mother to Carol (Stan), David (April), Joan (Bruce), loving grandma to Teddy, Jamie and Ronnie, Bryan (Kelsey), Lauren, Keith, Jordan and Jenna (Matt), Kimberly (Carl), Michael (Heather) as well as a loving great-grandma to Emily and Amelia Marjorie Waters.
Marge was predeceased by her parents Frank and Annie, her brothers Lawrence and Leslie, and her sister Mary and husband Cliff.
Marge worked at Ron’s side in their hotel businesses and spent many years working at the front desk at the Alec Arms Hotel. After retirement, she loved nothing more than making us fresh apple pies, canning and spent many, many hours in her flower beds. She was an avid crib player and enjoyed dice games and reading the old book. She always made time for her favorite TV shows. She recently received her 15 year pin as a Fraternal Eagle Member. She always enjoyed her pets and right to the very last morning loved having Buddy for sleepovers.
Mom’s wishes were to be buried in Gerald, Sask., which will take place at a later date. She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society, 317 – 10 Street South, Lethbridge, AB, T1J 2M7.

Dear Ronald,
My sincere condolences to you and your family, on the lost of your dear Marjorie.
How many years ago was it that you came up to me in the hardware in Langenburg asking “do you know who I am”? I took one look at your hands and said, “I know you’re a Scherloski, for sure”. We have such a large family of cousins and I often regret that distance separates most of us. But, it is heart warming all the same, to think of you.
With caring thoughts,
Karen Scherloski
