Florence Dorene Anderson born June 28, 1935 at Wolseley, Saskatchewan passed away peacefully on May 16, 2016 in North Battleford. She is survived by her loving family, Lloyd, husband of 60 years, children Ken and his daughter Martine, Brian, Gwen and her husband Kemp, sister-in-laws Joyce, Myrtle and Rose and many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her parents, Adrian and Doucia Bonneville, sisters, Rita, Lucille, Dorothy and Yvette and brother Rene. Florence grew up on a farm near Wolseley and travelled to school by horse and buggy with her younger brother. Her career was a bookkeeper where she worked at various businesses and banks in Regina and North Battleford. When Florence and Lloyd retired they purchased a winter home in Weslaco, Texas and spent 20 great winters there. One of the most special moments of her life was when her granddaughter was born. Florence was an avid curler and golfer – she especially enjoyed the bonspiels and tournaments. Florence was a wonderful mother, wife, aunt and friend. She will be dearly missed by many. The family would like to thank the staff at River Heights Lodge for the care and compassion they gave our wife and mother over the past year. They are truly special people. A graveside service for her will be held later on in the summer of 2016 with dates and times to be announced. Memorial donations in Florence's memory may be directed to the River Heights Lodge Auxillary, 2001-99th St. North Battleford, Sask, S9A-0S3 or to the Parkinson's Society, 610 Duchess St Saskatoon, SK S7K 0R1. Condolences for the family may be left at www.eternalmemoriesfuneral.ca. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Trevor Watts of Eternal Memories Funeral Service & Crematorium.
