Margaret Osecki

1924 - 2022

 Margaret will be privately remembered by her family at private committal service that will take place at Mountain View Cemetery, Lethbridge.

Margaret is survived by her daughters Barbara (Roy) Douglas of Taber and Wendy (Brent) Teske of St. Albert; four grandchildren Jennifer (Abe), Danny, Matthew (Alexis) and Christopher (Taylor); three great grandchildren Donovan (Chelsey), Spencer (Dalton) and Elizabeth and one great great grandson Titus. She is also survived by her sister Joyce Bezruki of Calgary and brother Jerry Towle of Edmonton, as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

 She was predeceased by her husband of seventy four years, Harry; parents Alfred and Charlotte Towle; siblings William, Charles, Don and Elanor; sisters-in-law Lois Bartlett, Doreen, Loretta and Sheila Towle, Joan Osecki; brothers-in-law John Bezruki, Bill Osecki and Dick Bartlett.

 Margaret moved to Ontario during the war years, working in a munitions’ factory in support of the war effort. Following her time in Ontario she returned to Lethbridge where she looked after her younger brothers and sisters. Lethbridge is where she met the love of her life, Harry. They were married August 2, 1946 and remained in Lethbridge most of their lives. She enjoyed knitting, reading and frequently getting together with her neighbours, Ann and Aki for coffee. Margaret was an excellent cook and made the best homemade bread and buns imaginable. Harry was known for his garden, and Margaret for the canning and pickling from everything Harry picked. Margaret was also active in the Lethbridge First United Church where she devoted much of her time. She thoroughly enjoyed trips to Great Falls with Harry and picnics at Little Bow with her brother and sister and their spouses.

 A special thank you to Dr. Yawney, the staff at Linden View Care Home and Taber Home Care for the excellent care provided to Harry and Margaret.
