MARY WEINBERGER

MARY WEINBERGER 1924 ~ 2025 Mary (Lacher) Weinberger was born on February 24, 1924, on the family farm nine and a half miles northeast of Fox Valley, Saskatchewan, to Frank Lacher and Julianna Selzler, and passed away peacefully on August 5, 2025, at AgeCare Riverview Medicine Hat, at the age of 101 years.
Mary attended Berghanson County school, and completed high school in Fox Valley. She went on to Normal School in Regina and entered the teaching profession. She taught in several country schools in the Fox Valley area for fifteen years. In 1957 she began working for Canada Post and worked for them for 35 years.
Mary was a founding member of the Fox Valley Catholic Women’s League, and she was a lifelong member, recently receiving her membership pin for her 75th year.
Mary married Frank Weinberger on December 27, 1946, in Fox Valley, where they resided until Mary’s retirement in 1989 when they moved into a retirement condo in Medicine Hat. Frank passed away in 1999.
Mary’s retirement years were very busy. She enjoyed curling, bowling, playing cards with the ladies, bingo, knitting, cross stitching, jigsaw puzzles and reading. Mary was an avid Blue Jays fan and watched all the games she could. Curling was another sport that Mary never missed on TV.
Mary was predeceased by her husband Frank and her siblings, Wendelin, Joseph, Vincent, Katie, Betty, Gabe, and Larry. She leaves behind to cherish her memory many nieces and nephews and two sisters-in-law, Wilma and Barb Weinberger. Rest in peace Aunt Mary.
