OBITUARIES
Family and friends brought her true happiness
Lena Waltham was born Feb. 23,
1929 at Andrew, Alta. to Kornel and
Pearl Skladan. She attended school in
Andrew until moving to Edmonton to
attend Alberta College.
After finishing
college she moved
to Coronation, Alta.
to work at the
Alberta Treasury
Branch.
A young woman
travelling by bus
from Edmonton to
Coronation –
arriving in the
dark of night. Woke
the next morning to
Waltham
look out her window and say to herself
– where on earth am I?
She met and married our dad Robert
William Waltham on Oct. 7, 1950.
They settled on the farm north of
Coronation and mom worked very
hard alongside dad - raising five children
(one son and four daughters),
gardening (to feed the family); raising
chickens and purebred cattle.
Mom and dad sold the farm and
retired to Coronation in 1981. During
her retirement years mom enjoyed
gardening (for enjoyment), golfing,
travelling and socializing with her
close friends.
All her grandkids have fond memories
of spending holidays and summer
visits in Coronation.
Mom and dad sold their house in
Coronation and moved to Strathmore,
Alta. in 2007.
Mom enjoyed holidays with family
and during her visits she liked to be
kept busy. She always wanted something
to do whether it was cooking,
baking or whatever needed to get done.
These visits always included plenty of
card games!
While mom enjoyed her visits with
family, she looked forward to
returning to her home at Sagewood
Retirement Community in Strathmore
where she lived independently until
her passing.
When asked what her secret was to a
long and healthy life – she would smile
and say, “blue berries and green
onions”.
The time spent with family and her
close friends at Sagewood, who loved
and cared for her deeply were what
brought her true happiness. Mom will
be remembered as a very special lady -
always kind, welcoming and how she
greeted everyone with a smile.
Lena was predeceased by her husband
(Bill Waltham), her parents, four
brothers and four sisters, mother, and
father-in-law (Archie and Susan
Waltham), brother-in-law (John
Waltham) and son-in-law (Lawrne
Airey).
Mom will be lovingly remembered
by her children and grandchildren.
