MACK CRUMLEY passed away peacefully at St Michael’s Palliative Care Tuesday, November 24, 2009 after a lengthy & courageous battle with cancer. He was born June 1929 in Stavely, Alberta to Clinton & Harriet Crumley.

Sadly Mack leaves to mourn his loving wife Joyce of 57 years, son Timothy (Bernice), daughter Jill (Glen), grandson Adam (Alyssa) and granddaughter Amy Leffingwell. He is also survived by his step-grandchildren who fondly remember him as “Captain”. Mack is also survived by his brother Pat, and predeceased by his parents and 3 sisters Francis, Virginia, and Marjorie.

In 1947 Mack started his career with the Bank of Commerce. He was transferred to Taber in 1949 where he met and married Joyce in 1952. That same year he was appointed Secretary Treasurer of the Taber School Division. In 1961 he accepted the position of Secretary-Treasurer with Lethbridge Public School District #51; retiring in 1985. He was always proud to say that part of his appointment to the LPSD#51 was as Second Bursar for the Junior College (known today as Lethbridge College).

Mack & Joyce enjoyed spending winters in Arizona for 22 years; as well as travelling to other destinations. Mack was very athletic playing baseball, hockey, curling and golfing. He was a 25 year member of Henderson Lake Golf Club and former member in the Lions, Rotary & Elks Clubs.
