Obituary of Blanche Ella Seidler

BLANCHE ELLA SEIDLER June 6, 1919 February 3, 2013 Blanche passed away peacefully with her family at her side. She was 93 years young. Blanche was predeceased by her beloved husband Carl in November of 2012. She was born in the Nokomis area in 1919. Blanche grew to be an avid softball player, travelling by train from Disley to pitch for her Regina team. She acquired her teaching certificate in Saskatoon and taught until her retirement in 1972. After her marriage to Carl in 1944, Blanche moved to their home on the family farm where she lived until December 2012. Together they raised their family with love, honour and integrity. An expert gardener, baker, avid reader and great fan of her stories, (Y&R, Coronation Street), Blanche was a joy to be around. With her quick wit and boundless knowledge, those who were fortunate enough to know her, valued their moments spent in her company. An eternally positive person, Blanche always looked for the goodness and beauty in everyone and everything. She leaves behind her son Murray, his wife Jonica and her daughter Rena, as well as six grandchildren and fourteen great-grandchildren. In our grief we know we have been afforded the greatest gift to call Blanche our Mom, Grandma and Great-Grandma. No words can express our sadness. A Memorial Celebration for Blanche and Carl will held at Speers Funeral Chapel at a later date. The service date and time will be published in the Leader Post at a future date. In lieu of flowers or donations, we ask that you plant a flower in your garden in Blanches memory. To leave an online message of condolence, please visit www.speersfuneralchapel.com
