Sadie was born October 16, 1929 in Aberdeen, SK. She married Howard Rachul in 1952. Sadie worked for Sasktel for many years, beginning in Aberdeen where she was the rural telephone operator. Sadie and her family moved to Saskatoon in 1963. Sadie was a devoted mother and grandmother to her children and grandchildren and loved to spend as much time as she could with her family. Sadie loved to sit outside in the summer, enjoying the birds and flowers, with her family and our pets. Sadie was a lively individual despite problems with her health. Her courage, strong will, and determination will be remembered by all who knew her. The family would like to extend our sincere thanks and appreciation to the staff at Porteous Lodge. Sadie was a resident for over five years and made many friends. We extend a special thank you to Mom's angels who made her feel at home. A service in Sadie's memory will be at Saskatoon Funeral Home on Tuesday January 15th at 1:00pm. A family internment service will be held at a later date in Aberdeen, SK. In lieu of flowers, please send your donations to the Arthritis Society.
