Elsie NICHOLAS Obituary
Elsie Nicholas passed into God's care on Tuesday morning, March 31, with her daughter, Barb, and her son, Brian, at her side.
Daughter of the late George and Anna Gschaid, Elsie was predeceased by her husband, Lawrence, in 1974. She is survived by Brian (Yanick), Barb (Blayne), her cherished grandson, Carter, her extended family in Lethbridge and beyond, and her close friends; our grief is enormous.
A private funeral took place on Holy Saturday. The family wishes to express its gratitude to the staff and volunteers at the Mel Miller Hospice, to Dr. Fraser Armstrong, to Father Dean Dowle, and especially to Father Roger Keeler who held our hearts in their hands.
"We have loved them in life, let us not forget them in death." (St. Ambrose)
