LUND
PHILLIP DON LUND, beloved husband of Danna Lund of Lethbridge, passed away on Tuesday, January 14, 2014 at Chinook Regional Hospital, at the age of 76 years.
He is also the loving father of three daughters: Vicki Lund of Lethbridge, Lorrie (Eric) Guilbert of Lethbridge and Krishell Patten of Spruce Grove. He has six Grandchildren and two Great Grandchildren. He is also survived by his brother Cameron Lund and numerous nieces and nephews. Phil was predeceased by his parents Andy and Fran Lund and a brother Marty Lund.
Phillip was born December 20, 1937 in Raymond, Alberta. He was raised on his parents’ farm on the Milk River Ridge. His education began in the one room Mammoth school house. He graduated from Olds College and received the Aluminium Co. of Canada scholarship in irrigation technology. He followed family traditions by becoming a rodeo cowboy and making a living in agriculture. His interest in agriculture was fuelled by a lifelong love of nature. Phil’s hobbies included hiking, fishing, hunting and gardening, all things that allowed him time outdoors. A high point of his life was carrying the torch in the opening ceremonies of the 1988 Olympics. Phillip always said his most significant accomplishment was “sharing my life with my best friend and love of my life and raising three loving and well educated daughters.”
A special thank you to the doctors and nurses of the ICU and Unit 3-C of CRH for their compassion in caring for our beloved husband and father.

SKRETTING
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beautiful mother, grandmother and great grandmother Mary Skretting. She passed away peacefully at the age of 95, on Monday, January 13, 2014 at St. Michael’s Palliative Care Centre. She will be lovingly remembered by her children: Ken (Josie) Skretting of Cranbrook, B.C., Jean (Jim) Fritz of Fraser Lake, B.C., Allan (Patti) Skretting of Lethbridge, A.B., Stan (Linda) Skretting of Duncan, B.C. and son-in-law Ken Nyhoff of Lethbridge, A.B., 13 grandchildren, 14 great grandchildren, two great-great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.
Mary was predeceased by her loving husband Hans of 57 years; her parents Peter and Elizabeth Dyck, her daughter Linda Nyhoff, sisters Helen Schmitz and Tina Gygie and her two brothers, Aaron and Peter Dyck.
Mary was born in Morris, Saskatchewan on March 16, 1918. At an early age, her family moved to Herbert, Saskatchewan where she attended school. Mary met Hans while visiting her sister in Barons and after they were married, they worked on the farm in Circle Hill, Alberta. After a few years of farming, they moved to Vancouver Island but because Mary was home sick, they moved back to Alberta.
Mary worked as a Cook and Baker in Claresholm and Woolworth’s in Lethbridge, where she made lots of lasting friendships. She loved reading a good book, camping with family and friends, doing jigsaw puzzles and especially word search puzzles. She enjoyed her weekly coffee visits with her friends at Pop’s Pub and meeting friends at the Army and Navy. Mary loved to bake and we will miss her homemade bread and especially her Saskatoon pies. Mom was fortunate to live in her own home right up to one month of her passing.
A special thanks to the staff of St. Michael’s Palliative Centre for the wonderful care they gave Mary and to The Lethbridge Society for Meals On Wheels who provided Mary with a meal three times a week and she looked forward to the volunteer’s visit each time.
A Private Family Service was held at McKILLOP UNITED CHURCH on Saturday, January 18, 2014 to celebrate her life.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Mary’s name to St. Michael’s Palliative Care Centre, 1400 – 9 Avenue South, Lethbridge, AB, T1J 4V5
