Lois Morton

Lois Morton passed away peacefully and with family members at her side on Tuesday, February 7, 2006 at the age of 76 years. Lois was predeceased by her father, Olaf Hanson, and mother, Annie Hall; stepfather, Jack Hall; sister, Edith Mounsey; brother, Leonard Hanson; infant son, Larry Morton; granddaughter, Jade; and husband, David Morton. She is survived by her brothers, Ellwood (Lois) Hanson and Alan (Laurina) Hanson; sisters-in-law, June Hanson, Kay Morton, and Virginia Morton; children, Gerald Morton, Penny (Nelson) McKee, Susan (Wayne) Russell, Donna O'Dell, Herman (Treena) Isaac, Mark (Melanie) Morton, Kevin (Myrtle) Isaac, and Kelly (Nancy) Morton; grandchildren, Jeffrey, Krista (Craig), Corey, Jacque (Bruce), Sabrina (Ryan), Chris, Tyson, Mackenzie, Andrew, Tanner, Morgan, Jared, Jor-el, Jeremy, Jordan, Alisha, and Eric; great-grandchildren, Alanis, Loissa, Braedon, Keenan, Austin, and Ariana; as well as several nieces and nephews and numerous dear friends. Lois was born on April 16, 1929 at Huntoon. At age four, in the midst of the Great Depression, she lost her father to a farm accident, which brought great hardship to her mother and siblings. The family of five received a government allowance of only $15.00 a month. In 1933, the family moved to Griffin where, as Lois often recalled, the struggling family received much kindness and support from local residents. At Griffin, Lois met and then married, in 1948, the young man who became her loving husband of 50 years, David Morton. In later years, Lois recalled fondly both the hardships and joys of taking up farming in the late 1940s and early 1950s: purchasing their first milk cow, melting snow to wash clothes, hunting for partridge and prairie chicken, traveling by horse and sleigh to visit friends and purchase groceries. While farming, Lois and Dave raised their family, a family made up of their birth children and, later on, of their adopted and foster children. After moving in to Weyburn, Lois and Dave also began to look after children who were in emergency foster situations. Lois continued to provide this service even after Dave passed away and she was in her seventies. In 2000, she was honored by the Minister of Social Services for 30 years of fostering, during which time she and Dave assisted more than 45 children and youth. In 2000, Lois decided that she wanted to convey her experiences of the "old days" to her children and grandchildren, and so she began to write her memoirs. These were published in 2002 as a book entitled Way Back When. Lois was pleased to discover that her book was of interest beyond her family and relatives. Scores of copies of Way Back When were purchased by libraries across Canada, and even in Australia. In 2004, when Lois was diagnosed with cancer, her primary concern was how it would impact her family. Her family and friends know well that her life was a celebration of the power of love. In lieu of flowers or gifts, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or to SIM Canada, 10 Huntingdale Blvd., Scarborough, ON M1W 2S5, in support of Bill and Joy Stregger, missionaries in Burkino Faso, West Africa.

Glenn F. Foss

Glenn F. Foss passed away peacefully at Fillmore Health Centre on February 3, 2006. Glenn was born November 21, 1928 at Creelman. He was the seventh of eight children born to Fred and Agnes Foss. He grew up near Gooseberry Lake, northeast of Creelman on the family farm. His school days were spent at Sequin School. Glenn began farming with his father and brothers on the land where his son, Randy and wife Colleen live today. Glenn was very proud when the Foss Farm was recognized as a Century Family Farm in 2003. It wasn't all work as the natural habitat of Gooseberry Lake nurtured his love for the outdoors. Hunting and fishing were two of his main outdoor passions. He shared this love with his two sons, Wes and Randy and later with his grandsons. It was a good day for Glenn if he could spend it picking Saskatoon berries in the peace and quiet of the countryside. Only dedicated pickers shared these special times with Glenn. In 1950 Glenn married Maxine (Ogden) and settled on the family farm where they raised their two sons, Wes and Randy. In later years they were blessed with two daughters-in-law and six grandchildren. Life was good! In 1982 Glenn and Maxine moved into Creelman. Glenn continued to be involved with the farming activities until he was admitted into long term care in 2002 due to failing health. Glenn was predeceased by his son Wes in 1995, his parents Fred and Agnes Foss, three brothers Woodrow (in infancy) Gurven (Mary), Vernon (Dorine), brothers-in-law Fred Boomer, Norman Ogden, Nelson Cross, Mel (Ila) Ogden, Cliff (Lil) Ogden, and Gordon Ogden. Glenn leaves to mourn his wife Maxine, son Randy (Colleen), their children Derek, Amy, Allison, daughter-in-law Colleen M. Foss and children Anders (Kristy) Foss, Gregory (Denyne) Foss, and Erin (fiancé Scott Greenwald), sisters Helen Boomer, Clarice Ogden, Beulah (Lawson) Lind, and Romona Cross, brother in law Ken (Dolores) Ogden, sisters-in-law Shirley (Gerald) Nurse, Jean Ogden as well as special nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. Glenn's kindness, honesty, determination and quiet way were an inspiration to all. His wit, humor, strength and integrity will long be remembered. A Memorial Service was held at Creelman United Church on February 6, 2006 at 2:00 p.m., with Reverend Heather Lea officiating. Friends of Glenn's, Roy Obst and George Holyoak carried the urn and flowers with the interment following in Golden Gate Cemetery, Creelman.
