Rempel, Mathilda (Schmold)

Oct. 19, 1937 ~ Februar 1, 2017

Mathilda Rempel (nee Schmold), beloved wife of the late John Rempel, passed away on February 1, 2017, surrounded by her children and grandchildren, after a hard-fought battle with Alzheimer’s.

She leaves behind brothers Ben (Mary), Willie (Adeline), and Fred (Marge) and was predeceased by brothers John (Bertha) and Jacob (Delma).

Mathilda’s memory will be greatly cherished by her five children and their families: Doris & Ted Van Dyk (Brandon & Tiana, Courtney & Aaron, Evelyn & Alice), Barb & Marc Boulanger (Michael, Mathieu, Melissa), Diane & Ray Vienneau (Josh & Dayle, Corey & Sarah, Katie), Bruce & Connie Rempel (Justin, Tyler, Coleby, Brittany, Caitlin, Caterina, Sean, Mariah, Skyler, Dalton, Samantha, Dahkarai, Danika), Al Rempel (Derek & Kaitlyn).

We were privileged to have been raised and guided by this amazing woman, whose kindness and generosity were without equal.

A Memorial Celebration of her life will be held 1:00pm on Saturday, February 18, 2017 at the COALDALE LUTHERAN CHURCH, 2006 – 20 Street, Coaldale, AB. If you knew and loved Mathilda, please join us in celebrating her life and legacy.

A special thanks to the staff at the Coaldale Health Centre, who showed so much love and compassion to our dear mother in her last years and especially during her last days.
