LANG, Madeline
LANG MADELINE LYNDA LANG (née Bramwell), of Lethbridge, beloved wife of William “Bill” Lang of 63 years, passed away peacefully at the Chinook Regional Hospital, surrounded by her husband and three beloved sons, on Thursday, September 5, 2024 at the age of 82 years.

Lynda was predeceased by her father Robert, her mother Madge, her brother Bob, and her precious sister and life long best friend Terry.
Lynda is fondly remembered for her kind demeanour, her love of art and love for people. Most people will remember Lynda for the love and loyalty she showed throughout her life to her God, Jehovah. She dedicated herself to him at the tender age of 12, and for the next 70 years, she would share the precious hope the bible gives for the future with anyone who would listen. She continued to show trust in Jehovah right up until the end, knowing that he will not fail to restore her back to life when his precious Kingdom soon begins to rule over this earth. John 5:28,29
Though Lynda struggled with many health issues for a very long time, she would always remind those who tried to comfort her in the difficult times that, “It’s only temporary, dear.”
A Celebration of Lynda’s life will be held at the KINGDOM HALL OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES, 5 Rocky Mountain Blvd. West, Lethbridge, AB, on Saturday, September 14, 2024 at 2:30 P.M.
