Obituary of Tamaine Ruth Geldenhuys

Tamaine Ruth Geldenhuys (Mohr, Howard, née Pantel), age 47 years, late of Lebret, SK, passed away suddenly on Saturday, August 25, 2018 alongside her youngest son, Greagan Geldenhuys. She was predeceased by her first husband, Casey Howard; her brother-in-law Kelly Juckes; her grandparents, Paul and Amelia Pantel, and Edward and Betty Ollenberg. Tamaine is survived by her daughters, Cassandra (Clinton) Jackson and Corrinna Howard; her sons, Ryan Geldenhuys and Justin Mohr; her granddaughter Lucille; her parents, Darlean and Albert Pantel; her sisters, Dorinda Bell and Sherianne (Eric) Lindberg; her brothers, Chris (Candice) and Darcy (Michelle) Pantel; numerous nieces and nephews; and countless extended family. Tamaine spent her early life in Fort Qu’Appelle, SK and left to further her education in Edmonton. She spent her adult years over the prairies, seeking further education and knowledge. Tamaine’s passion for helping others led her through the medical fields and into Holistic Healing. She spent time teaching across Canada and abroad. Tamaine had a great love for nature, animals, birds, sunsets, and sunrises. Her greatest love was for her children, family, friends, and God. Tamaine was the author of two books and as her health deteriorated, she turned to photography. She focused on gratitude and positivity and would not want us to grieve in her absence, but to celebrate her, be happy in each other’s company, and be grateful for the time we had.
