MYERS (Loeppky), Dallas M. Age: 78, of Swift Current, SK. Formerly of Wymark, SK, passed away on May 10, 2013 at the Cypress Regional Hospital. On March 14, 1935 Dallas was born to parents Peter and Margaret Loeppky at their residence in Swift Current and in 1936 relocated to Wymark. She received her education at Wymark and Swift Current SCCI Schools. In her younger years she played on the Wymark Girls Hockey Team and the Boys Baseball and Girls Softball team, bowling leagues, going on hikes to the coulees. Following graduation, she went to work for the Bank of Montreal and then in 1959, she transferred to the Calgary and Lake Louise Branch. She spent time skiing and playing ball. During her time working in Lake Louise, she lived in the Farimont Chateau, which gave her many opportunities. She did some travelling in California in 1962, exploring the city of San Francisco and around. She then returned to Swift Current and worked for the Western Savings and Credit Union. Due to illness, Dallas had to change careers and spent the remainder of her years working in Restaurants and Hotels Industries in Shaunavon and Swift Current and also spent time working in the cafeteria at the Cypress Hills College. Her last place of employment was in the cafeteria and Cypress Hills College. She was a woman of many talents. She was artistic and creative, she had a remarkable gift of humor that was spontaneous, witty, and lasted into her final days. Throughout her life, she enjoyed fishing, knitting, drawing, playing the organ, sewing, square dancing, listening and watching any type of sports, she was a jack of all trades – there was nothing she could not fix from a leaking water facet to a roof, from a button to a lawnmower - anything broken she could tinker long enough that she would get it fixed. She met Merle Myers and they resided in Swift Current until 1980 and then moved to Frontier and Shaunavon. They lived in Shaunavon until retiring back to Swift Current. Following the passing of her husband in 1996, Dallas continued to live a life of independence. She became active with the Mental Health Association. She spent some time as a Board Member. In 2009, she moved to the Heritage Towers. This was a big change for her but a good one. She enjoyed her time there and loved the puzzle room and, more especially, bingo. She enjoyed the people and the entertainment, the dancing and all the activities hosted there. She was a kind, compassionate, strong and non-judgemental person. She had a worry for everyone else except herself. Despite all the hurdles life had to offer, she never complained. Dallas is predeceased by her husband, Merle in 1996; her father, Peter, in 1975; her mother, Margaret in 1980; a sister, Deloraine Seib in 2000; and a niece Adorie in 1970. She is survived by her son Robert (Doreen) Myers and grandsons, Tyler, Brayden, and Tyson.
