It is with great sadness that we wish to inform you of the peaceful passing of our beloved mother, HELEN LOUISE WINTERS, of Lethbridge, at Fairmont Extendicare on Thursday, July 14, 2022 at the age of 88 years.
Helen is survived by her loving husband Victor, sons Gerald (Kathy) of Rimbey, AB, Ken (Liz) of Golden, BC and Gary (Susan) of Lethbridge and daughter Lorna (Wade) of Coaldale, as well as eight grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.
Helen met and married Victor Winters in May of 1954 in Milk River, Alberta. They moved to Moose Jaw, SK for two years, then returned to Milk River to make their home. Mom always had a big garden. She froze and canned the produce for the coming winter. She loved her sweets and always had something baked sitting on the cupboard. She was an avid seamstress, and sewed many clothes for us kids as we grew, and made many of dad’s clothes. Later, she enjoyed quilting which she won many awards for. She was always busy with her hands, crocheting, knitting and doing needlepoint. She also loved playing cards and dancing. In her retired years, Mom and Dad traveled and spent the winters in Arizona.
Helen was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother who will be missed by all of us.
The family would like to thank the staff at Fairmont Extendicare for the amazing care they gave Mom.
At Helen’s request, there will be no funeral.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Winters Helen Louise July 14 2022..
Death notice for the town of: Lethbridge, Province: Alberta
