Lenora was born in Killam, AB to Doris and Emil Siebold, on May 13, 1951. She grew up on the family farm in the Gladstone area. She attended Bawlf school and then attended Alberta College in Edmonton. After a brief stint living at Redcliff, Larry and Lenora moved to the farm at Spy Hill, Saskatchewan, where life was very busy raising 4 very busy boys.
She enjoyed cooking and baking for her boys, including Icelandic food at Christmastime. She thoroughly enjoyed watching the many species of birds that showed up at her feeders, but she was especially fond of the orioles. Lenora planted roses, and enlisted the help of Karin and Myron to plant trees in the fall. She enjoyed being outside, whether it was hiking and camping with Alberta relatives, or watching the bears on her porch. She loved her rural life and her family.
She is survived by her sons, Kristopher of Spy Hill, SK., Dyon of Kelowna, BC., Jonathan of Gerald, SK., Tylynn (Savannah) of Sylvan Lake, AB.; Grandchildren from Dyon, grandson Parker (Ashley) and great-granddaughter Elenor, and granddaughter Marrisa; from Ty (Savannah) granddaughter Lena, and grandson Ruben.
Lenora is also survived by her sisters Karin Bjorge of Leslieville, AB., Carrie (Bob) Tulloch of Bawlf, AB., her brother Howard (Brenda) Siebold of Killam, AB., and numerous nieces and nephews.
She was predeceased by her parents, and brother-in-law Myron Bjorge.
Lenora passed away peacefully with family by her side in Moosomin, Saskatchewan on Friday, January 30, 2026 after a brief battle with cancer.
A funeral service was held on February 6, 2026, at the Spy Hill United Church with Jean Istace officiating. Donations may be made to Southeast Integrated Care Centre, Moosomin, SK. Peter Carscadden Funeral Service in care of arrangements. 306-745-3304
