FORESTELL
MRS. CUNEGUNDA “GUNDA” FORESTELL, beloved wife of Mr. Michael Forestell of Lethbridge, passed away peacefully at home on Sunday, January 26, 2014 after a lengthy illness at the age of 89 years. She left this world surrounded by love with her beloved husband Michael and most of her family at her bedside.
Mom was born on March 3, 1924 in Viscount, Saskatchewan. She was one of nine children raised on the family homestead. She leaves behind her husband of 63 years, Michael and seven children: Paul of Vulcan, Clair (Elaine) of Lethbridge, Brian (Pablo) of Didsbury, Patricia Siray (Brian) of Millarville, Mary Jane (Katryn) of Vancouver, Michele Coddington (Matt) of Sonoma and Sean (Isabelle)  of San Francisco. She also leaves behind numerous grandchildren and great grandchildren who all fondly remember Grandma’s kitchen and especially her Oma buns. As a young woman, her adventurous spirit took her to Lake Louise and then to New York City. She then met “her Michael” at the family farm. They were married in Saskatoon and had a wonderful married life for 63 years and were a shining example to us all. After initially living in Saskatoon, they moved to London, Ontario. Then in 1958 they moved to Lethbridge and have resided here since. Mom always felt her first calling was as “a child of God”. Her second calling was devotion to her husband, family and home. She was well loved and will be missed by all who crossed her earthly journey. We will all remember her gentleness, her humble nature, her joy and especially her great devotion to our Blessed Mother Mary.

Terry Huzil
1943 – 2014
John Terrence (Terry) Huzil, beloved husband of Shirley Huzil of Lethbridge, passed away at the Chinook Regional Hospital on January 25, at the age of 70, surrounded by love, peace and warmth.
Terry was born to Mary Elizabeth and John Huzil on July 20, 1943 in the town of Vegreville. Terry had a deep passion for hunting at a young age. He was also a natural story teller and loved to reminisce about hunting trips with his beloved dog Pug and his time spent at Seattle University.
His strength, intelligence, and integrity naturally led him to a career in law. Terry graduated from Queen`s University in 1969, but his heart and love for the prairies brought him back to Alberta to establish a successful 35 year legal practice and loving family in the city of Lethbridge.
Terry will be dearly missed by son John Torin (Tara) Huzil, twin daughters Jennifer (Riley) Ellis- Toddington and Tanis (Joshua) Sevrens, their mother Barbara Huzil, stepchildren Barb (Ernie) Coffey and Sean (Corinne) Coffey, and 11 grandchildren (Ellery, Blythe, Hayden, Owen, Reid, Wyatt, Jake, Lilia, Drake, and Jordan). He is also survived by brother Ken (Dodie) Huzil, nephew Jason (Amy) Huzil, and nieces Keely (Ryan) Archer, Jaci Huzil, and Amanda (Darcy) Vanderham.
Terry will be remembered for his charismatic presence, hearty laugh, pride and tender heart.
