Following graduation, she continued to live and work in Brandon most of her adult life.

She was a life member of both the Royal Canadian Legion Branch #3 and the Sokol Club.

The family wishes to acknowledge and provide a heartfelt thanks to all Helen’s friends who made the last years of her life as full and enjoyable as they were. In keeping with Helen’s wishes, cremation has taken place. There will be no memorial service. Interment will be held in the Veteran’s Section of the Brandon Cemetery, beside her late husband, Ken.

BATTERSBY: Leonard James "Len" Battersby, passed away suddenly on June 27, 2007. Len was born in the R.M. of Sifton on the family farm on June 18, 1937. He was predeceased by his father Herman Battersby, his mother Mersetta Battersby, brother Arthur "Art" Battersby and brother-in-law Lionel Weatherald. Len is survived by his daughter Pam Battersby, son Brent (Cheryl) Battersby and grandchildren Brynne and Mitchell, of Brandon, sister Phyllis Weatherald of Oak Lake, MB, sister Katherine O’Donnell of Mission, B.C., sister-in-law Dolores Battersby of Chater, as well as many nieces and nephews and too many friends to mention. Len was born and raised by the Oak Lake marsh. He received his education at Lansdowne School #145. Much of his early years were spent fishing in summer, hunting deer and waterfowl in autumn and trapping muskrats in the late winter. He worked for several farmers in the district before moving to Swan River to live and work. He then moved to Brandon, where he worked for Jack Crang and MacArthur’s, driving trucks. He was Service Manager for Binkley Motors and worked for Swan River/The Pas Transfer hauling freight and eventually becoming Manager. Len moved his family to Chater in the late 1960’s, and in 1973, he began his career with the "Good Roads" as an Operator. He made many lifelong friends that were very important to him. One of the highlights of his time at the Highways Department was the spring of 1980, when he and others where called to the Porcupine Forest to fight the large forest fire. Len’s face would beam when he told the stories of the low beds and the big cats. He retired from the Highways in 1997 but still remained in touch with his buddies at "the shop." Len loved the outdoors and was an avid hunter and fisherman. He spent many hours doing what he loved and took many photos of the things he would see. A short talk of Len’s after pushing bush for deer and not hearing any shots went… "See any deer?" "Yes." "Why didn’t you shoot?" "Don’t know." "You’ll never get a deer if you don’t shoot. The next time I push a deer out to you, you had better be knee deep in empty brass when I come out!" He enjoyed the trips with his best friends to Wyoming to hunt mule deer and antelope. He was an executive member of the Brandon Wildlife Association and member of Hartney Game and Fish. He was also a member of the ANAF where he enjoyed the ever-present good-natured ribbing that took place during the meat draws. Len cherished the friends he made throughout his lifetime. You would be hard pressed to know someone who knew more people than Len did. He had a special relationship with his grandchildren, Brynne and Mitchell and his soft side would show whenever they were near. A memorial service to celebrate Len’s Life was held at the Brockie Donovan Chapel on Tuesday, July 3, 2007 with Rev. Laird Russell-Yearwood officiating. All in attendance were Honorary Pallbearers. Interment followed at the Brandon Cemetery. Donations in memory of Len may be made to the Canadian Diabetes Association, 727B – 10th Street, Brandon, MB R7A 4G7. When my days here are over And my time is through, I shall go to a place Where the sky’s always blue, Where the wild geese fly And the elk’s bugle sounds, Where there’s nothing but wilderness all around. It is here I shall let my weary soul rest, To wait for the ones I love the best.

He was also a leather craftsman and artist who loved to sketch, especially nature scenes. He shared his crafts with friends and family. Health problems plagued Garth early in life, but, while at times this slowed him down, it never deterred him from interests or activities. He continued to farm with his brother, Lyle until ill health forced him to retire during the winter of 2002. He resided at Central Park Lodge, Brandon until his passing, where he remained active in leatherwork, sketching and assisting the staff in fixing small items around the building. Garth was very independent, was interested in people, loved to socialize, was known for his hearty laugh and sense of humour and enjoyed good-natured teasing. He helped others as a handyman using his tools and crafts, brightening up the elevator with his sketches, or making a leather case to hold the ball of wool from getting away, which was very much appreciated by staff and patrons at Central Park Lodge. Garth loved his electric scooter and surprised family and friends where he would travel. The scooter allowed him to scoot all over Brandon, giving him the independence he so dearly enjoyed. Garth is survived by his brothers: Lyle Gordon (Nancy) of Brandon and nephews, Jonathan and Christopher and Dale (Donna) and nephew Craig (Danielle, twin boys, Benjamin and Matthew) all of Naperville, Illinois, and niece, Karen of Buffalo, New York as well as numerous cousins.
