Lenora Winnifred Webster
October 24, 1915 - December 14, 2014
As published in the December 22, 2014 World-Spectator
Lenora, daughter of the late Mary Elizabeth (nee Price) and John Davies, was born October 24, 1915 on the family homestead near Debden, Saskatchewan. The family left the homestead in 1921, moving to a farm in the Souris Valley, south of Oxbow, Saskatchewan. Due to the drought, they left the farm in 1934 to farm northwest of Rocanville in the Perth school district.
Lenora did housework for a few years then clerked in the store prior to her marriage. In 1946, she married Cliff Webster of Rocanville where they farmed until retiring to Moosomin in 1982. Cliff passed away in 1985. They had one daughter, Cheryl.
She enjoyed dancing for many years and had several hobbies such as her garden and flowers, crochet and handwork.
She was predeceased by her husband Cliff, her parents John and Mary Davies; four sisters: Eleanor (Nellie) Logan, Margaret Blair, Emily Battersby and Mercedes Bernard; two brothers: Bill and Howell; brothers-in-law Dave Logan, Bill Blair, Harold Battersby, Bill Bernard and Andy Bernard.
Left to mourn are her daughter Cheryl and several nieces and nephews and their families.
A funeral service was held on Wednesday, December 17, 2014 at 1:30 p.m. at the Bethel United Church, Moosomin, Saskatchewan with Reverend Joan Rennie-Laing officiating. Interment was held at Webster Cemetery, Rocanville, Saskatchewan.
If friends so desire, memorial tributes may be made to the Moosomin and District Healthcare Foundation-Long Term Care or to a charity of your choice in memory of Lenora. E-mail or sign the online book of condolences at www.carscaddenfuneralchapel.com.
