Obituary of Margaret Selinger
Passed away peacefully at the Dr. F.H. Wigmore Hospital in Moose Jaw, with family by her side on June 1, 2018. Margaret at the age of 94, predeceased by her beloved husband John (2010), her son Wayne, and her grandson Steven Reeves. Loving mother of John, Cheryl, Brenda Reeves (Greg) and Murray. She will be lovingly remembered by her grandchildren Ryan (Jamie), Amanda (Trevor), Greg (Maxine), Ashley, Melissa and Chantal (Shaun), and also by her numerous great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews and friends. Margaret was born on December 1, 1923 to Peter and Elizabeth Kay in St. Helen’s Lancashire England. She grew up there and met the love of her life, John Selinger, while she was working at a munitions factory during W.W. II. They were wed in England, and began their family there, but shortly after the birth of their first son, moved to the family farm near Holdfast, Saskatchewan, where they farmed for a short while before moving to Moose Jaw in 1958. Margaret and John enjoyed travelling occasionally, but were very happy to enjoy the outdoors, camping and fishing. As time moved on they enjoyed their home, sitting in the back yard taking in the sights and sounds of the neighbourhood. After John’s passing, Margaret enjoyed being surrounded by her much loved family, a walk through the mall, a good game of darts, cards, or simply relaxing with her favorite T.V. show. Margaret will be laid to rest beside John at Rosedale Cemetery during a private family service on Thursday, June 7th, with Fr. Carlos Jimenez presiding. The family wish to extend a heartfelt thank you to Dr. Vooght and to all of the staff on the Medicine Unit for their care and compassion during Margaret’s time in the hospital. As an expression of sympathy, memorial donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, 1738 Quebec Ave #26, Saskatoon, SK, S7K 1V9, would be appreciated. Arrangements are entrusted to Parkview Funeral Chapel, 474 Hochelaga St W, Moose Jaw, SK.
