Ruby Florence Fraser (Remenda)

After her final "night shift", in the early hours of October 10th 2014, Mom slipped away peacefully at the Swift Current Care Centre. She was born to the late Homer and Ada Thompson on Sept 5,1926 in Endeavour SK.

Ruby was predeceased by brothers Ken, Ray and dearest sister Belle; Victor Remenda, husband of 39 years; husband Frank Fraser of Sturgis
and grandson Jeagher. She is survived by her husband Jake Teichrib (and family) of Swift Current and her 4 children: Bill Remenda (Elaine) of St. Malo MB, Connie Sluth (Murray) of Camrose AB, Carol LaFountaine ( Marlow) of Banning CA, and Peter Remenda (Audra) of Saskatoon SK. She is also survived by 8 grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren, one brother, Bob (Brenda)of Prince George BC and numerous nieces and nephews.

Ruby was a strong willed, considerate and caring person who enjoyed the simple things in life. Her love for her family was boundless and there was nothing she wouldn't do for them. Having been a Health Care Aide for well over 30 years, her thoughtfulness and dedication shone through when she provided years of support and care for her sister Belle and her husband Frank. It was with considerable skill and dexterity that she prepared thousands of perogies for various family gatherings, including her granddaughter's wedding. Her perogy recipe will live on! An avid garage sale shopper, Ruby purchased numerous unique novelties and gifts for her children and grandchildren. She loved to play cards, attend dances and laugh at a good joke. This remarkable woman was an experienced car driver who made numerous trips to visit her children, including a road trip to California while she was in her seventies.

Ruby made her home at the Swift Current Care Centre in 2009. Her family wishes to thank all the staff for their loving care and compassion. Always a Health Care Aide at heart, Ruby would often offer to help the staff in any way she could. It would be a great tribute, for those so wishing, to make donations to the Swift Care Centre (700Aberdeen St. E, Swift Current SK S9H 3E3) in her memory.

Cremation has taken place and a memorial gathering and internment of her cremains will take place in the Spring of 2015 in Sturgis SK.
