Myrtle Amson

March 16, 1938 – April 4, 2019

Myrtle Ann Amson (Thue) passed away at St. Paul’s Hospital in Saskatoon on April 4, 2019, surrounded by her loving family. Myrtle was born to Melvin and Amanda Thue in Radville, SK on March 16, 1938; the second youngest of 10 kids. Myrtle fell madly in love with Jack Amson while training as a Registered Nurse and they were married December 4, 1959. Her nursing career started at Grey Nun’s Hospital in Regina, continued at St. Paul’s Hospital in Saskatoon, and she retired from nursing at Borden Hospital. Myrtle and Jack moved to Radisson where they started a farm and thought they had the world by the tail. Their family grew and they had 8 kids who worked together to grow the family farm. Myrtle loved gardening and providing for her family and spending time playing games or baking with her children and grandchildren. Myrtle loved to cook and bake, and there was always an abundance of food; you would never leave her place with an empty stomach. Myrtle was a very active member of the Radisson community. Myrtle cannot be replaced and has left an everlasting impression on everyone who knew her and will leave a huge hole in all our hearts. Survived by husband Jack Amson; son Greg (Kelly), grandson Troy (Cassy), great-grandchildren Denny, Donatello, and Lila, granddaughter Sasha (Andrew); son John (Arlene), grandson Braydon, granddaughter Chelsey (Dylan), great-grandchild Jaxton, granddaughter Shantel; daughter Wendy (Nick) Jonescu, granddaughter Crystal (Rob) King, great-grandchildren Nathan and Riley, granddaughter Jamie (Justin) Young, great-grandchildren Jaxon and Juniper, grandson Tyrel (Katelyn) Jonescu, great-grandchild Harper, grandson Paden (Shanda) Jonescu, great-grandchild Maren; son Tim (Gayle), granddaughters Lexus and Carleigh; son Dave (Lori), grandson Carter (Laura), granddaughters Autumn, Keara and Arin; son Rocky (Sherry), grandson Chase; daughter Marsha (Rick) Bzdel, grandchildren Keeley, Jocelyn and Cash; daughter Tania, granddaughter Scarlett; as well as her siblings Norma Amson, Jim (Sheila) Thue and Donna (Don) Dolgopole, and numerous nieces and nephews. Celebration of life will be held at the Radisson Curling Rink on April 13, 2019 at 2:00 pm. Donations can be made to the Radisson First Responders, Box 286, Radisson, SK S0K 3L0 or the Heart and Stroke Foundation in Myrtle Amson’s name.

    My sympathies on your loss. Myrtle and I went to school together at Pepper School and we did have fun . I used to go to her place once in a while and stay overnight.

    Ray and I are thinking of you Jack and all your family. Myrtle will be sadly missed by not only her family but her family of friends of which there are many. I can see Myrtle busy straightening up the entrance to heaven and getting ready to bake some cookies.

    Dear Jack and Family,
    We were so sorry to hear of Myrtle’s passing. We all loved her so much! She was a kind, loving, thoughtful human being. Even though we are not related we feel like she is family. We are so fortunate that Marilyn and Myrtle became friends back in their Nursing School days.
    We hope that your many fond memories of Myrtle will keep her alive in your hearts!
    Love
    Charlie and Susan, Marilyn Trobiak and family.
