NORRIS JAMES (JIM)
BLAXALL,
Born November 11, 1928, died April 8, 2017, peacefully, in Calgary, Alberta. Jim is survived by his loving wife Lucille (Lucy), and his children Shauna Hunter (Rob), Norris Blaxall, Melanie Walthall, Luanna Schmelter (Jeff), Burns Blaxall, Lisa Foggin (Rod), and grandchildren Sarah Robertson (Christian), Brad Hunter (Angie), Krista Emrich (TJ), Josh Hunter (Maddy), Adam, Jacob, and Michael Walthall, Mallin, Maya, and Hayden Blaxall, Kira Schmelter, and 10 great-grandchildren.
Jim was born in Magrath, Alberta, to Norris and Ina Blaxall. He married his sweetheart Lucy, on July 15, 1954. Jim was very successful in his career, and retired from Calgary Coop as the VP of Human Resources in 1991. He was begged out of retirement by the Alberta Appeals Commission and was with them four years.
He is described by his children and grandchildren as: playful, teasing, steady, patient, positive, supportive, someone who would teach life lessons while helping to gut fish, who would make you laugh while telling made-up legends and hiking stories, who made you feel you could do anything, who always had a mischievous twinkle in his eye.
A funeral will be held at 11:00am Saturday April 15th, 2017 at the Parkland Chapel, 14540 Parkland Blvd SE, Calgary. Viewing from 10:00-10:45am. Graveside service and interment at the Magrath Cemetery at 4:00pm the same day.

STANFIELD
1923 – 2017
“Loved by Everyone
Who Knew Her”
BLOSSOM OLEDA STANFIELD, beloved wife of the late Mert Stanfield, passed away at the Chinook Regional Hospital on Monday, April 10th, 2017 at the age of 94 years.
Blossom is survived by her daughters Gloria and Melody, as well as her grandchildren Tammy (Jason) Ruff and Jason (Kristy) Logan. Also left to cherish her memory are her great- grandchildren Braden, Devin, Chad, Ashton and Chloe.
Blossom lived for her family and loved cooking, baking, crocheting her dishcloths, doing her crosswords, going “garagesaleing” and sitting in the special chair looking out the window. She was very likeable and was treasured for her ‘heart of gold’, until her fight to stay with us ended. She now can join our special “Dad and Pumpa” who we lost in November.
At Blossom’s request, a Private Family Service will take place at a later date, where we will remember them both with much love.
The family would like to thank the Lethbridge Family Services Home Care and the Chinook Regional Hospital Floor 3C for their caring support of Blossom throughout her time with them.
In lieu of flowers and in memory of Blossom, donations may be made to the Humane Society, 2920 – 16 Avenue North, Lethbridge, AB, T1H 5E9 or to a charity of your choice.
