Theresa Valgardson

1925 - 2019

 Sadly, we are sharing the passing of our mother, grandmother and great grandmother, Theresa Mary Valgardson (nee Merkl) in Taber on Monday, October 14, 2019 at the age of 93 years.

 Relatives and friends were invited to meet with the family at the Clearview Lodge, 4730 - 50 Avenue, Taber on Saturday, October 26, 2019 between 2:00 P.M. and 4:00 P.M.

 Left to carry on this legacy are her loving children Bob (Arlene) Valgardson of Whitby, Ontario, Larry (Marion) Valgardson of Taber, Pat (Ross) Calverley of Taber, Peter Valgardson (Nola Benson) of Taber and Kathy (Norm) Czibere of Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta; daughter-in-law Jennifer Valgardson. She is also survived by sixteen grandchildren and twenty eight great grandchildren; brother Tony (Irene) Merkle; sisters-in-law Christine Valgardson, Dorothy Valgardson and Arlene (Ed) Flickinger.

 She was predeceased by her husband Marvin Valgardson; son Edwin Valgardson; daughter-in-law Patty Valgardson and great grandson Tyler James Valgardson. 

 Mom was a strong, loving and gentle person who took her life responsibilities of raising a family and influencing an extended family very seriously. She welcomed everyone, our table always included extra’s. Our mom took great comfort in her family and the farm that her and dad worked hard to build. A life well lived, a life well loved.
