The CAMROSE BOOSTER January 8, 2013
“Joe” James Joseph Scott
Margarite “Peggy” Hilda Larson
Annie Mildred Rakowski
Peggy was born on July 10, 1931. She passed away in Camrose on December 10, 2012 at the age of 81 years. She graduated from the Misercordia School of Nursing in 1953. She nursed in Killam, Daysland and Camrose. For a total of 41 years, she was a good nurse and loved every day. People knew her for her laugh at the Smith Clinic. On July 21, 1976, Peg married Victor Larson. They enjoyed pony chariot and chuckwagon races, lots of travelling and many fun times with family and friends. Peggy loved rodeos, wagon races, travelling, flower gardens, cards (rummy), little kids, family, friends, laughing, being teased and food. No family member ever got away without a big hug and kisses from Peggy – she was very affectionate and enjoyed one-on-one visits. She also had a close friend, Harvey, who was dear to her heart. In her later years, Peg’s health let her down. She was happy to be in Deer Meadows where her sister, Phyllis, the staff and neighbors were there for her. Peggy will be sadly missed by two brothers Roger Weller of Daysland, and Ed Weller of Fort Saskatchewan; three sisters Phyllis Bowie of Camrose, Dyann Niehaus (Roger) of West Bank, BC, and Judy Anonson (Gary Schaupmeyer) of Edmonton; many nieces and nephews; and lots of friends. Peggy was predeceased by her husband Victor; her parents Leo and Viola Weller; one brotherin-law Lyle Bowie; two sisters-in-law Doreen Weller and Dorothy Weller; and two nephews David Weller and Bobby Bowie. A Mass of the Resurrection was held on Saturday, December 15, 2012 at 10:00 a.m. from St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Church with Rev. Larry Pederson as celebrant. Cremation followed the service. Memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to St. Francis Xavier Church Building Fund or the charity of one’s choice. To send condolences please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.
