BARBARA JEAN STURROCK, beloved wife of the late George Sturrock of Coaldale, passed away peacefully at the Coaldale Health Care Centre on Tuesday, April 25, 2017 at the age of 97 years.

Barb will be forever missed by her children Jack (Marjorie) Sturrock of Coaldale, Judy Mezerecky of Calgary, and Marnie Wilkins (Don Perry) of Coaldale as well as five grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild. She was predeceased by her husband George, grandson Kevin Sturrock, parents William and Isobel Davidson and all five of her siblings and their spouses.

Barbara was born east of Olds, on February 15, 1920. She and George moved to Coaldale in 1951. She loved softball, curling, bowling, camping, reading, crafting, cards and anything involving more people. She worked at the Lethbridge Municipal Hospital for 23 years. Since suffering a stroke in 1997, Barb has resided at the CHCC where, until his passing, in 2005, George helped her play crib every day. May their 29 hands be many in their final reunion.

We would like to thank all the staff at the Coaldale Health Care Centre for all their loving care over the years.

A Graveside Service will be held at COALDALE COMMUNITY CEMETERY.

If friends so desire, memorial tributes may be made to the Coaldale Health Care Centre (payable to Alberta Health Services), 2100-11th Street, Coaldale, AB T1M 1L2.
