Dear Thiessen family – I am so sorry that you have lost your Mom, Grandma, Great Grandma and Auntie who loved and cared for you all so deeply. Auntie Tina has a special place in my heart.
Gary and Family,
It has been many years since I have seen Aunt Tina. She and your dad came to Leamington to visit my parents and I got to spend time with her!! My dad loved his visits with her, they would tell so many stories of when they were kids. She was a sweet lady, and I am sure she will be missed!! May all the wonderful memories you have with her help you through this difficult time !! May She Rest in Peace!!
My sympathies to the Thiessen family. Tina & Mervyn were long time friends from the Edenberg days.
The Swistun and Skjonsby families send our deepest condolences to the Thiessen families .
A trip to Saskatoon staying with the Thiessen’s meant ” you are welcome” and all your clan. Tina took Aidan’s blanket and total trust to fix it. He was so in love with her❤️ The blanket is in his cabin to date but Tina was a granny for everyone.
