It is with grateful hearts that the children of Mary Geraldine Meacher announce her passing at the age of 87 years at Providence Place with her loving family by her side. Mary was born on March 2, 1924 in Mazenod, SK. She was the sixth born in a family of twelve. Mary was predeceased by her parents Marie and Herman Seeman; brothers Albert, Gerald, Basil, Edward and Leo; sisters Carmal and Theresa. She is survived by her sisters Catherine Seeman and Margaret Wilkinson; brothers Paul (Claudia) Seeman, Joe (Audrey) Seeman and numerous nephews and nieces. She met and married William Charles Meacher who also predeceased her in 1980. They had eight children who loved and supported her journey. Mary is survived by her children Bill (Barbie and Chuck), Cynthia Gradwell (Jason), Gord and Wendy (Jeffory and Brittany), Jane and George Kerr (Patrick), Russ and Mary (Jeffery), Lois and Bill McDonald (Jennifer), Nancy and Harold (Marcy), Stella and Don Harder (Jessica) and great- grandchildren. Mary was a stay at home parent who did sewing for the community to help make ends meet. She was a busy woman well loved by friends and family. Mary was a sage in her own way for not only did she mend clothes she helped to mend hearts with her loving talks and generous gifts of time for all. It has been difficult to see her memory leave before she did although her family continued to love and support her life. We feel blessed by the care and love she received from the Staff at Providence Place and wish to offer them a heartfelt expression of gratitude for the care they gave our Mom. The Memorial Mass will be celebrated at St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church Saturday, July 2, 2011 at 10:00am. Father Rick Krofchek will be the celebrant. An Evening Prayer Service will be held at W.
