WAGNER, Norma NORMA FAY WAGNER November 14, 1934 – November 9, 2023 Norma passed away peacefully at the Chinook Regional Hospital on November 9, 2023, just shy of her 89th birthday.
Norma Fay Wagner (Johnson) was born November 14, 1934, in Innisfail, Alberta. Her grandparents were early Icelandic settlers, and as such, she grew up in the Nordic community of Markerville, AB. Norma finished high school and college in Red Deer, and then began a long career as a legal secretary – the last 20 years being with Chevron in Calgary. She married Frank Wagner in 1955 and had 2 children: Glenn and Michael. Norma divorced Frank in 1972, but this story has a happy ending – they remarried in 1985 after Frank realized he couldn’t live without her! Norma was the matriarch of the Wagner household, and always carried herself with dignity and grace. She was an unselfish woman who provided comfort and solace to others while asking for little in return. Norma loved music and was an incredibly talented pianist, and nothing brought her more joy than playing for her family. She was a very enthusiastic skier when she was younger and a hardcore Calgary Flames fan right until the end.
She is predeceased by her husband, Frank, and her elder son, Glenn. She is survived by her younger son Michael (Joanne), daughter in-law Susan Wagner, her grandchildren – Randi (Ben), Kyle (Stephanie), April, and Halla – and her great-grandchildren – Andrew and Vale.
As a family, we would like to thank the home care team, nurses, coordinators, and EMS for helping her through these last few difficult months. We would like to specifically extend our gratitude towards Jordan, Matthew, Angela, Leanne, and Beatrice.
There will be no service at this time because (in true grandmother fashion) Norma did not want us to make a fuss.

WILLIAMS, Gary WILLIAMS GARY MOORE WILLIAMS Passed away November 12th, 2023 at St Michael’s Palliative Care. He was one of six children born in Raymond, Alberta to Jay and Betty (Moore) Williams. Mourning his passing are the best wife in the entire world Mary Spanbauer, his children Carey Spanbauer-Wilde and Michael Williams, and their family members, Chris, Aria and Elliot, and Helen. He is survived by his siblings Alan Williams, Lynn Jones, Mark Williams, Kay Ellis, and their wives and husbands Sue, Jennifer, Bob, and their families. He was predeceased by his parents, his sister Carole Snow-Court, and his brother-in-law Allan Jones.
A true Raymond Comet, Gary played every sport, loved every sport, and excelled in every sport. Basketball became the source of trophies and tributes and his gateway to higher education. He was an incredible performer. Never one to boast, he loved to play and compete and he loved the doors that opened through his athletic successes.
Gary worked for Alberta Correctional Services for over 30 years. He enjoyed the gardens at the jail and after their closure, he taught carpentry to inmates and found it joyful. Gary was a gentle giant, fondly called “Big Red”. He was friendly, kind and easygoing, unless you put salad in a sandwich. He loved food and was spoiled with Mary’s cooking for all their years together. In his passing we mourn the loss of our greatest cheerleader, husband, mentor, father, wit, and engineer. The man never stood down from a problem, nor from offering a solution. He crafted more furniture and toys, and more jokes than can be recorded in writing. In lieu of flowers please donate to St. Michael’s Palliative Care and the Lethbridge Humane Society.
The Service will take place at Salmon & Sons Funeral Home, 433 Stubb Ross Rd S, Lethbridge, AB at 2:00 pm on the 16th of November 2023.
