A Celebration Of Life Service was held on Friday, May 9, 2014 at St. Paul’s Anglican Church, North Battleford, SK with The Reverend Canon Peter Norman officiating. Louise Gillingham gave the eulogy, with shared memories by grandchildren, Shannon Keast, Carey Menssa, Leah Taylor & Lyndon Taylor. Organist, Mrs. M. Junice Headley, St. Paul’s Sanctuary Choir and Robert MacKay provided music for the Service. Gordon was born at Livelong, Saskatchewan. At eight years old, he and most of his family moved to Beamsville, Ontario where he attended school and resided into his late teens. The family then headed back west and Gordon made North Battleford his home. In 1946 he met Grace Evelyn Hargrave and they married on February 22, 1950. They would have four daughters and over the years would be blessed with nine grandchildren and nineteen greatgrandchildren to date. Gordon worked diligently to support his family, always in sales, which he loved. Over the years he sold hardware, cars, houses and oil products. He was sales leader at Boyd Brothers in 1963, 1966 & 1967; president of the Battlefords Real Estate Board for one year and served as president of the Saskatchewan Real Estate Association in 1973. Gordon became a member of the Cosmopolitan Service Club in 1958, was a Rotary Club member in the late 70’s and in 2012 was inducted into the Frontier Mall Wall of Fame for his music and community service. Gordon loved his family and made every effort to attend extra-curricular activities of his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He spent countless hours attending ice skating carnivals, school concerts, chuck wagon and flat racing, hockey games, rodeos and dancing and swimming events to name a few. Gordon’s second love was his music. In 1950 he played stand-up bass with the Melody Ranch Boys who later became the Melotones. He also played guitar with his brothers Ed and Lawrence at times. Later in life he met Bert Teichrib and they formed a group called Klear Kountry. They played for many local area events and also had a CD of their music made. More recently Gordon played bass and sang with The Four Gents. They played for a variety of occasions, including playing often at local senior housing facilities. Gordon was a positive, friendly, caring, hard-working, outgoing person who had a significant impact on anyone who was fortunate to know him. He will be greatly missed by his family, friends and his community. Donations in Gordon’s memory can be sent to Battlefords Union Hospital, 1092 – 107th St, North Battleford, SK S9A 1Z1.

BREHON, LILAH V.: Lilah Viola Brehon was born on May 6, 1923 near Maymont, SK and passed away on May 10, 2014, at Saskatoon, SK. She attended school at Keystone and Etonia near Maymont and then Battleford. Following completion of Grade XII, Lilah chose to follow her mother’s profession and become a teacher and began practice teaching at Grey School near Maymont which was the school her mother had taught at in the early 1900’s. Lilah taught at many Saskatchewan schools--Paddockwood, Keystone, Happyland, Glaslyn, Maidstone, Kelvington, Furdale--and finished her career with 16-1/2 years at Hanley where she taught typing and bookkeeping and was offered a scholarship to finish her degree. Lilah was proud to receive her Bachelor of Arts degree from the U of S in 1963. When Lilah retired and moved to Saskatoon, she joined the Broadway Painters and later the Bridge City Artists. In 1973, Lilah was diagnosed with cancer for the first time. Several years later, Lilah, Olga Stefaniuk and Marie Thiessen organized several successful Retreats for Women Facing Cancer. This evolved into HOPE Cancer Help Inc. These 3 dynamic women won the Saskatoon YWCA Women of Distinction Award in 2001 in the health, well-being and spirituality category. In 2013, just days before Lilah’s 90th birthday, HOPE recognized Lilah as the last surviving founding member and for her 20 years of service to the organization. Other pastimes included curling, bridge, reading, travelling to foreign countries, and volunteering at Bethel United Church. Another great passion of Lilah’s was genealogy. She spent many hours reading history and gathering and recording data about the family. Lilah felt a great sense of accomplishment when the Brehon family collaborated to publish a Brehon family history book in 2013. Lilah’s relatives remember her as a lively, fun loving person with a very determined nature and the spunk to get her where her determination led her. She was always ready to help others whether babysitting nieces and nephews when they were small, inviting them for a meal when they were attending university, or giving rides to friends to church, cards, or an outing. She will be sadly missed by her brother and sister-in-law, George and Gladys Brehon, Saskatoon, SK.; her sister-in-law, Anna Brehon, Maymont, SK.; and her thirteen nieces and nephews, 23 great nieces and nephews, and 10 great-great nieces and nephews. Lilah was predeceased by her parents, Alec and Annie Brehon, her older siblings, Colles and Dick Brehon and Muriel Pattison; her brother-in-law, Rev. Earl Pattison; and sister-inlaw, Shirley Brehon. We would like to thank everyone for their visits with Lilah during her time in hospital. Special thanks to Palliative Care Services, Bayshore Home Health and her friends and staff at Preston Park. A celebration of Lilah’s life was held at Grosvenor Park United Church in Saskatoon, SK on Friday, May 23 2014 at 10:00 am. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Hope Cancer Help Centre or to a charity of your choice. Condolences may be sent to mail@saskatoonfuneralhome.com. Arrangements have been entrusted to SASKATOON FUNERAL HOME (244-5577). ____________________________________________________
