Sonja Alice Gorecki
August 19, 1940 – June 18, 2022
On June 18th with her daughters by her side, Mom passed away peacefully. She was born August 19, 1940 to Fred and Klara Hansen in Edson, Alberta. In 1948 the family moved to Hinton. Mom graduated in 1958 in the very first graduating class at Hinton High School, then attended McTavish Business College in Edmonton and returned to Hinton for employment at Northwestern Pulp & Power in January 1959. This was her only place of employment, with breaks in between for raising her family until 1996, at which time she and husband Bill retired to Radium Hot Springs. Mom relocated to Sherwood Park, which brought her closer to family, in July of 2016 after the passing of Dad in 2014.
Mom’s cause of death was Mesothelioma, caused by asbestos. Symptoms began in August 2020 with a diagnosis in January 2022. Mom was predeceased by her parents and husband Bill . Left to cherish her memory are: daughters; Alara (Dan), Karen (Mark), Tracy (Steve), grandchildren; Camber, Meagan (Greg), Mitchell, Grant (Fran), Laura (Dan), Patrick (Jennifer), Brandon, great granddaughter; Kinsley and a few grand pets.
Mom wanted to thank friends, relatives and Strathcona Homecare with a special thanks to Meagan K for their care and support. If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions in Mom’s memory may be made to the charity of your choice.
A Celebration of Life will be held for Mom on Monday, June 27, 2022 at 11:00 AM, Park Place Funeral Home, 51 Broadway Blvd. Sherwood Park, Alberta.
