LILLIAN ELLEN WRIGHT, of Lethbridge, passed away peacefully at the Edith Cavell Care Centre on Sunday, January 09, 2022 at the age of 88 years.

Ellen was predeceased by her loving husband Harry and her favorite son-in-law Rod Barnett.

She is survived by her children; Monte (Verna) Wright, Terry Barnett, Brian (Patti) Wright, grandchildren: Lindsey and Jeff (Ashley) Wright, Jordan and Tiffany Barnett, Kelsey (Corey) Pohl, Brad (Robbyn) Wright, Rob (Grace) Wright, Tyler (Michele) Wright.

She was blessed with ten very special great-grandchildren: Rowen, Weston, Oakley, Porter, Lennon, Jaxon, Rylee, Logan, Decker and Lukas. Ellen also leaves behind her sister Rita (Larry) Pizzey of Red Deer and brother Ron (Carla) Nolan of Ballinafad, ON

Ellen was a woman of commitment. Her and Harry enjoyed 63 years of marriage until his passing in 2017. She was a kind, caring woman, who was passionate about family. Family meant the world to her, a modest woman who lived a life without luxury but gave endlessly to her family.

The family apologizes that due to Covid-19 and concern for the growing numbers we have decided to hold a private family service.
