EVELYN HILDA BAERWALDT
On Thursday, August 29, 2013 Evelyn passed away at the age of 86 years. She was predeceased by her parents Ted and Mary Lissel, loving husband Fred, sister Jean and brothers-in-law Ben Geschwandtner, Jim McGovern, Wayne Seidens and Walter Geppert. Evelyn is survived by her sons Russell (Caterina), Wayne (Dallas), Mark and her only daughter, Margaret (David) and granddaughter Julie. She is also survived by her sisters Georgina, Helen and Terry, and brothers Gordon (Norma), James (Karen); cousin Gordon Lissel; and numerous nieces and nephews. Evelyn grew up a strong prairie girl on the family farm near Jansen, SK, lived through the character defining years of The Great Depression, attended public school, and then moved to Regina to work as a clerk before dating Fred August Baerwaldt. Evelyn and Fred were married in 1956 and farmed near Dafoe until 1967 when the family moved to Regina.
Evelyn was a super supportive mom, encouraging all kids to acquire the best education possible in the areas of study they enjoyed most while being sure to hone their skills in extracurricular activities that included hockey, baseball, football or Brownies. She loved camping and was always keen to help organize vacation trips whenever summer holidays rolled around. She was very active at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church and volunteered for many years with the Victoria Order of Nurses and the Canadian Cancer Society. Our sweet mother will be missed. We are thankful to have had such a kind, devoted and loving mother who was always on our side. She really enjoyed spending time with her granddaughter Julie and gave good parenting advice. The numerous good times had as a family will be cherished. Evelyn now joins Fred, her soul mate, in heaven. Visitation for family and friends will be held at Speers Funeral Chapel, 2136 College Avenue, Regina on Monday, September 2nd, 2013 from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. A celebration of Evelyn's life will be held at Speers Funeral Chapel on Tuesday, September 3rd at 10:00 a.m. with the Reverend Jim Chimirri-Russell officiating. Private Interment to follow at Riverside Memorial Park.
A special thank you to Pastor Jim Chimirri-Russell for officiating at the ceremony.
The family would like to sincerely thank the many considerate nurses and aides, volunteer caregivers, advisors Dr. Caterina Sgarito and Dr. Silvia Casari, as well as Dr. Neil Devitt at Regina General Hospital and Pasqua Hospital over the past months.
