ANGELA EUGENIA REITER
(nee Stang)
Angela passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, at St. Paul's Hospital on Thursday, April 11th, 2013 at the age of 78. Angela was born in Macklin, SK the eldest of a family of 17. Angela loved music, singing, painting, puzzles, crosswords, and spent endless hours researching family histories for the numerous Family Tree books she and Steve published. Angela was a teacher for over 30 years in the Catholic School system, and in her retirement speech she shares her thoughts on her calling; "Can I really expect Him to accomplish miracles though me, an ordinary person, in ordinary surroundings? Yes, He will do great things through me to mold others. This has been my vocation to teach. This faith and hope, I have tried to pass on to your children." Together, Steve and Angela loved to travel, including a retirement motorhome adventure throughout every state in the USA. She was a devoted Catholic who lived out her faith to its fullest every day. Angela will be lovingly remembered by her children, Reginald (Loretta), Patricia (Tim), Elizabeth (John), Vivian (Doug), Maxine (Glenn), Ada (Robbie), Stephanie (Dean), Hannah (Mike); numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
