It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our grandmother, mother, aunt and friend Gladys on Friday evening, July 15, 2016 at the age of 80 years. Gladys leaves to mourn her husband Doug of 53 years; four sons: Dean (Linda) and Dean’s children Aaron (Samantha), Travis (Kylie) and Kristen; Neil (Rhea) and their daughters Nicole and Lesia; Wayne (Sarah) and Jason. Gladys is survived by 5 siblings: Marvin (Pat) Amendt, Clifford (Angela) Amendt, Norman (Helen) Amendt, Ralph (Terry) Amendt, and Rita (Larry) Kuntz. Gladys was born on December 6, 1935 in Hepburn, Saskatchewan, shortly there after her family moved to Belbutte where she grew up on her parents’ farm. She married Douglas Good on April 5th, 1963 and started raising their four boys on the farm in Shell Lake and later moved to Battleford in 1978. She was loving, kind, hardworking woman who devoted her life to raising her family, helping her church community, and worked in her many careers as a nurse’s aide, seamstress and school bus driver but most of all a mother. Gladys was enjoying her retirement years living at Caleb Village at the time of her passing. She will be greatly missed by family and friends alike. A funeral of Christian burial was held on Thursday, July 21, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. at the Battleford United Church where Gladys was an active member. Interment followed in the Battleford Cemetery. Funeral arrangements were entrusted to Sallows and McDonald – Wilson and Zehner Funeral Home.
