Trucking was a job which took the family all over Alberta as well as into Saskatchewan. In
1955 Joyce and Bill bought their farm northwest of Grassy Lake where they continued to farm until retiring in 1977 to the town of Grassy Lake. In 2002 they recognized that the time had come for another move, and they moved into Pioneer Place in Taber.

Joyce loved all her family dearly and spent many hours cooking, gardening and taking care of grandchildren.

Joyce also loved to read and sew and enjoyed these pastimes until her eyesight failed in the last few years. She will be especially remembered for her strength, kindness and generosity. Joyce had a wonderful memory for dates and family events and would amaze the family right to the end with knowledge of family history.
If friends so desire, memorial tributes in Joyce’s name may be made directly to a charity of one’s choice.
The family would like to thank Dr. Torrie and all the staff at the Taber Hospital, Clearview Lodge and Linden View care facility for their care and compassion. It has been greatly appreciated.

WESTRUP (DENECKY), Mary
MARY WESTRUP (DENECKY) Mary Westrup, devoted wife of the late Neville John Westrup, passed away at Cornwall Community Hospital on Friday, February 3rd, 2023 in her 84th year.
She is survived by her three loving sons Marcus, Stirling, and Vaughan and her granddaughter Erica Westrup, as well as her brothers Nick and Steve Denecky.
Mary was born as Mary Denecky on September 19th, 1938 in Lethbridge County. She graduated from Coalhurst Highschool in 1956 and joined the RCAF in 1957 where she trained as a Weather Observer in Trenton, Ontario.
She met Neville Westrup while they were both stationed at an RCAF base in Resolute, Nunavut. They were married in 1960 in Louppy-sur-Loison in Meuse, France where they started a family. In the year that followed they travelled extensively, living (among other locations) in Comox, Osoyoos, Kitimat, Montreal, and Kelowna before finally settling down in Cornwall, Ontario, for the rest of their lives. They were also stationed in Germany.
Mary grew up to hard farm work and learned the value of helping others. To the end of her life she was still helping people. Always willing to give what she could, and never expected anything in return. She is one of the very beautiful rare special people on this Earth.
Mary did not want people to make a fuss over her passing, she was never an attention seeker. Her last wish was for her ashes to be scattered on a warm beach, under palm trees, where she would never be cold again.

Thanks to all who made my life so great. And for those of you who made it not so great at times, I thank you too!!!!! Please don’t forget to pray for me; we all know I will have a stop-over in Purgatory.
Please, if you attend my funeral, make it full of joy and laughter. You know I am happy, and as you read this, I am probably headed over the “Rainbow Bridge.”
