Posted: January 28th, 2020
June 21, 1934 – January 23, 2020
With heavy hearts the family of Ilaine Meade (nee Tudor) announce her passing on January 23, 2020 at the age of 85 years.
She will be lovingly remembered by her children Curtis (Marion) Litle, Todd (Cindy) Meade, Sheri (Harvey) Schafer, and Cindy Meade (Howard Dodd). Grandchildren Nicole (Chris) du Randt, TJ (Angela) Litle, Stephanie Meade, Stewart Meade (Sarah Gauvin), Taylor (Dana) Meade, Aaron Schafer, Lindsay Schafer and Charlize Meade, Great grandchildren Christiaan & Gemma du Randt and Jase & Sophie Meade. Also left to mourn several nieces, nephews and friends.
Ilaine was born in Lethbridge, AB and grew up on the family farm near Wrentham, AB. She spent many years in Grande Prairie, AB before retiring to Medicine Hat. In the last couple of years she moved north again to High Level, AB. She was a kind and generous lady who was always adopting strays – whether it was kids, cats or dogs. Ilaine enjoyed many hobbies but her favorite by far was Bingo! She was usually “one away!” or “damn near!”
Ilaine was predeceased by her husband William (Bill) Meade, her daughter Christine in infancy, her parents Charles and Lydia Tudor, brothers Charles Jr Tudor and Lewis Tudor.
Honouring Ilaine’s wishes, no formal funeral service will be held. The family has chosen to have a private celebration of life in the spring of 2020.
