ANDERSON, Elaine

ELAINE ANDERSON It is with immense sadness that we announce the passing of Elaine Anderson, our cherished mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, auntie and friend.
Mom loved life and always had a smile on her face (sometimes in the form of an impish grin). She treasured her family and friends and easily made new friends wherever she and dad lived. She was instrumental in initiating neighborhood parades, penny carnivals, encouraged exploring nature (and was most fond of Waterton). She encouraged new ideas; creativity and appreciated everyone’s unique individuality. She found her true love when she met and married dad and through their love gave of it freely.
Mom is survived by her children and their spouses: Diane and Rob; Bruce and Inga; Carol and Ken; grandchildren: Colin, Jasen (Catherine); Rory, Maxton; Katelyn (Keith), Kelly (Ashton); great grandchildren: Myles and Brooks; and Kitana; sisters Evelyn (Curt); Barbara (Yukio); sister-in-law Berta; and numerous nieces and nephews.
Mom was predeceased by dad (Ken), sisters Norma and Marlene, and brothers Fred, John and Gord.
We find ourselves so fortunate that she was “ours”! She will be forever treasured and dearly missed. At mom’s request the family will celebrate her life privately.
