She is survived by her grandsons Brad (Leah) Belles, Ryan (Jennifer) Belles; 5 great-grandchildren Cody, Katelyn, Emily, Maura and Hayden Belles; 3 great- great-grandchildren Baya, Knox and Layla Belles.
Christina’s family came from Cooks Creek, Manitoba. Her parents then moved to Inchkeith, Saskatchewan to their family farm. She then met and married Ernest Belles and moved to Grenfell, Saskatchewan. For many years Tennie worked at the Hardware store in Grenfell while also still finding the time to have her huge wonderful garden, raising her son Barrie, and making the best Ukrainian cabbage rolls and sauerkraut perogies.
A Memorial Service with family will be held at a later date.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Christina Belles October 12th 2020..
Death notice for the town of: Regina, Province: Saskatchewan
So sorry to hear of Teenie’s passing. She was my mom’s (Irene Velestuk) best friend. When mom passed away in 2012, Teenie and I kept in touch so we could share memories of Irene. We knew each other before this, but became closer through these phone calls every couple weeks. She would always feed me great meals (cabbage rolls stand out) when I would stop to see her in Regina. 100 years! I’m honoured to have known such a great lady.
