MILDRED (MILLIE) MEIER (NEE JES
Posted: July 27th, 2024 MILDRED (MILLIE) MEIER (NEE JESSE) 1935 2024 Mildred was born in Maidstone, SK on June 4, 1935, to parents, Ida and Gust Jesse.
She was raised in Golden Prairie, AB and always talked about the friends she made there and her fond memories. The family moved to Medicine Hat and as a young girl she worked at Medalta Potteries. She met and married Fred in 1953 and they began their family in 1957. Mom worked various jobs: Knight Schmidt Industries and the one that we always laughed at was her being a ‘pickle pusher’ at the Bick’s Pickle Plant in Medicine Hat. Calling her the best pickle pusher around! Mildred dedicated her life to her family and decided to stay home with her children in the mid 1960s. Mom was an avid baker and baked at least 3 or 4 days a week even up until she went into a senior’s home. We always had a huge garden that she enjoyed and every fall she worked really hard preserving all the produce for the winter months.
Mildred is predeceased by her parents and her loving husband of 68 years, Fred and their special little dachshund, Suzy Q; her brother, Marvin and sister, Eleanor Zeller; brother in law, Harry; as well as Fred’s brothers, Johnny (Rosella), Rueben (Alice), Oscar (Bonnie), Art, Lawrence (Shirley), and Howard; 2 sisters, Mabel and Norma Rosell; brother in law, Tom.
Mildred leaves to cherish her memory her son, Randy; Randy’s daughter, Kendra (Bob Winterburn), Sadie (Tanner), great great grandchildren, Launna and John; Maddie (Hunter); Randy’s son, Kraig; her daughter, Jane (Steve) Blowes; Jane’s daughter, Tara (Mark Fennell), Nikki (Jake), Hunter; her brother, Bob (Millie) Jesse, and her sister, Donna Adams; sisters-in-law, May, Jesse and Norma Meier; as well as numerous nieces and nephews
