Eleanor Calder Obituary

Published by Regina Leader-Post from Dec. 7 to Dec. 8, 2011.
CALDER, ELEANOR (BEV)
Mom passed away peacefully with her family by her side on December 1, 2011, at the age of 76. She will be lovingly remembered by her children; Kim and Robin Graff of Regina Beach, their children Dustin and Lindsay Cunningham, Shyla Cunningham and Stan Hill, Dana and Shane; Bill and Kathy Calder of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and their children Chandra and Jimmy King, Billy and Natasha; Shelley and Ron Fairbairn of Regina, their children Kyle Fairbairn and Megan Nichols, and Brendyn and Kelly-An Fairbairn; Gayleen and Michael Olson of Estevan and their children Alyssa, Sydney and Connor; and great grandchildren Tyra Cunningham and Oliver Fairbairn. Mom will be missed by her sisters and brothers, Jean and Mervin Ermel, John and Wendy Farquhar, Bob and Diane Farquhar and Merle and Elmer Johnson, as well as many nieces and nephews. Mom was predeceased by her husband Bill and sisters Roberta and Bertha. Mom lived life to the fullest, she enjoyed spending time with family and friends, golfing, travelling and shopping for that special gift. She spent countless hours knitting, crocheting and sewing, and was extremely artistic, making beautiful paintings, quilts and stained glass projects which were lovingly gifted to her family. Mom is loved by all who knew her and will be sadly missed by all her friends in Regina, B-Say-Tah and Mesa. The staff at the Good Samaritan Hospital in Phoenix, Arizona, treated mom and our family with unbelievable compassion, respect and care above and beyond our expectations. A celebration of mom's life will be held on Friday, December 9th, 2011, at 11:00 a.m. at Westminster United Church, 3025 13th Avenue, Regina, Sk, with Darrell Reine officiating. In lieu of flowers, memorial tributes may be made to Red Roof Retreat, 1594 Concession Six, RR#2, Niagara-on-the- Lake, Ontario, L0S 1J0.

On behalf of the Valley Scarlet O'Hatters and me personally please accept our deepest sympathy on Bev's passing. She was always such a bright spark in all our Red Hat gatherings and we will miss her greatly. The Echo Ridge golfers will also miss her. She was always such fun to golf with. She was always a fun, caring person and the world has lost a lovely lady.
