Audrey Lambie
Audrey Eileen Lambie (nee Danser), aged 80 years old of Swift Current, SK passed away November 30, 2015 at 12:50 a.m. The Memorial Service was held at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, December 4, 2015 at the Victory Church at 1100 5th Avenue NE, Swift Current, with Pastor Lorne Davis officiating. The organist was Nicole Perrault. Amazing Grace was performed by her grandsons, Mason Bennett and Chris Bennett. The urn bearer was her neighbor and dear friend, Dale Finkbeiner. Over the years, Audrey considered Dale as her brother and they would often solve many mysteries with the repair jobs they would conjure up. The interment service took place at Memory Gardens Cemetery. Audrey is survived by her companion, Vic Pederson, her children, Donna Christensen (Tom) of Standard, Alberta, Rod Bennett (Shannon), Cheryl Bennett of Swift Current and Joanne Bennett of Calgary, her grandchildren, Angie, Terry, Nicole, Mason and Chris Bennett, her brothers and sisters from Alberta and numerous nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by her husband, Bill Lambie in 1991, her parents, Harold and Eileen Danser and siblings, Bud, Debbie and Donald Danser. Audrey was a caregiver and she found great pleasure in the simple things - helping others, dancing, laughing, being with family and friends. She believed in repairing, not replacing and could always be found re-upholstering furniture, rebuilding the vacuum, creating tarps for Chuckwagons or sewing, knitting, crocheting and painting pictures to fill the empty moments of her day. No project was too big and she expressed her love for her family and friends by assisting them in any way she could. Even though health challenges were difficult for her the last number of years, she could always be counted on to hem some pants or knit a sweater for her grandchildren. In her younger years, she was an avid softball player in the summer and curled and ice danced in the winter while raising her young kids. She was always on the go and made long and steadfast friends for life. She was a social butterfly who loved her family and friends, and she found it difficult to sit on the sidelines when dancing was no longer an option. She once said that one of the greatest inspirations in her life was "listening to all the elderly people I helped look after for 48 years." Audrey was born and raised in the Clive, Alberta district. She started a nursing career as an LPN at 17 years old and lived and worked in Ponoka, Calgary, Taber, Gull Lake and finally settled in Swift Current. She worked at the Palliser and Pioneer Lodge for many years and was a life-long member of the Royal Purple. She was vibrant and always had a smile and story for everyone she met. Donations may be made in her memory to the Elks & Royal Purple Fund for Children #100-2629 29th Ave., Regina, Saskatchewan S4S 2N9. Warren's Funeral Home were entrusted with the arrangements.
