Roland (Rollie) Lucien Boulet 1927 - 2020

With sadness the Boulet family announces the peaceful passing of loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, Roland (Rollie) Lucien Boulet, on April 29, 2020 in Olds, AB at the age of 92.

Born on the family farm near Storthoaks, SK on December 8, 1927, Rollie lived a long, full and happy life. He grew up in Dumas, SK surrounded by brothers Norman and Lucien and sisters Louise, Helene, Lucienne, and Therese, prairie skies and a curiosity about the world around him. Always proud of his French-Canadian heritage, Rollie received his secondary education at College Mathieu in Gravelbourg, SK. After completion of his studies, he began work as a labourer for the Canadian Paci�ic Railroad in Dumas at the close of the Second World War. He eventually moved to Alida, SK where he bought grain for United Grain Growers in the early 1950s. He began working for Saconny Vacuum, which would later become Mobil Oil Canada Ltd., in 1955.

While in Alida, he met the love of his life, Angelina Boutin, and they were married on July 3, 1954 at St. Raphael Roman Catholic Church in Cantal, SK. Together they raised a family of �ive children: Colette (Norman), Daniel (Penelope), Twain, Ailwin, and Toby (Bernadine). With Mobil Oil expanding their operations, Rollie and Angelina accepted a transfer to Alberta in 1963, and they courageously built a new life for their family.

Rollie became a Plant Operator for Mobil Oil at the newly built Wimborne, AB gas plant. They lived for a short time in Torrington (at the site of what would later become the World Famous Gopher Hole Museum -- a fact Rollie often enjoyed sharing), before settling in Olds in June 1964 in the same home they have lived in for the past 56 years.

The Boulet family grew to include six grandchildren: Salena (Jonathan), Michelle (Simon), Erin (Michael), Joel, Mariko, and Logan, as well as seven great-grandchildren: Kieran, Ryker, Moira, Myles, Andrew, Alex, and Henry. Rollie was immensely proud of them all.

After a long and valued career with Mobil Oil, Rollie retired in 1989. He then devoted his time to his passion -- woodcarving. This kept him busy throughout the year, making good use of two workshops: the garage in the summer and his basement shop in the winter. He was completely self-taught, and his artistry was remarkable. His Santa Claus carvings, Santa canes carved from Christmas tree trunks dropped off by family and neighbours, chess sets, bellows, and totem poles are cherished by many. Each was a unique, one-of-a-kind, Rollie Boulet creation.

In his retirement, Rollie liked to keep busy. A bicycle enthusiast and owner of many styles of bikes over the years, he could be seen riding around Olds through spring and summer. Rollie enjoyed chatting with friends and neighbours over coffee at Tim Hortons, and in the winter, he would cheer for his beloved Montreal Canadiens, the Olds Grizzlys, and his grandson’s junior hockey team, the Humboldt Broncos. As a talented storyteller, he could hold the attention of any audience. Rollie was an avid reader, with an ever-growing library from historical treasures to children’s pop-up books, which delighted his grandchildren. He installed a set of stage curtains in the playroom for the productions of Boulet Family Theatre; and he rarely passed on the chance to play or go for a bike ride with the young people in his life. His humour and his chuckle, his wit and his thoughtfulness will be greatly missed by all who know and love him.

Roland was predeceased by his parents Alexandre and Albertine; his sisters Louise, Helene, and Lucienne; and his grandson Logan.

In lieu of �lowers, donations to the Olds Rotary Athletics Park in Rollie’s name are welcomed. For information on how to make a donation, please contact: Town of Olds Community Services at 403-556-6981. A formal funeral and celebration of Rollie’s life will take place in Olds once the current pandemic and social distancing restrictions are lifted. Details will be announced at a later date. The Boulet family thanks everyone for your kindness in remembering Rollie, for your support, and for keeping his family in your heart.

NIGHT SKIES | JUNE AN ASTRONOMY ARTICLE BY JAMES EDGAR

The Moon is a few days from full phase as June begins. The 5th marks the beginning of eclipse season, as the full Moon is partially covered by Earth’s shadow in a penumbral lunar eclipse, although none of the event will be visible from North America. Jupiter and Saturn are travelling together this summer, so it’s not surprising that they both end up near the Moon at the same time. Watch for them in the early morning on June 8, when they’re within 2 and 3 degrees, respectively. A few days later, on the 12th, Luna meets up with Mars and Neptune, just before sunrise. On the 16th, Uranus is within 4 degrees of the Moon. On the 19th, Venus is occulted for observers in northern and eastern Canada, plus northern Europe and Asia. The Moon is new on the 20th, and, as expected, a little more than 14 days after the lunar eclipse, an annular solar eclipse occurs (because the Moon is at apogee on the 14th, at the most distant point in its orbit, it’s not quite capable of fully covering the Sun, thus an annulus surrounds the Moon in an annular eclipse). The eclipse begins in central and eastern Africa, across the Arabian Peninsula, northern India, southern China, and out into the Pacific Ocean. Dedicated eclipse chasers are hoping the COVID-19 pandemic doesn’t cancel their travel plans.

Mercury is visible in the western evening sky, achieving greatest eastern elongation on the 4th, well placed for Northern Hemisphere viewers until mid-month.

Venus is right in front of the Sun (inferior conjunction) in June 3, and by mid-month is the Morning Star before eastern sunrise. Watch for the occultation by the Moon on the 19th, a close approach for western Canadians.

Mars is an early morning object, gradually getting brighter and appearing larger. On the 12th, it is 1.7 degrees south of Neptune and 3 degrees north of the Moon.

Jupiter rises before midnight, promising to be a summer attraction at star parties. The Galilean moons always provide a pleasing experience for first-time viewers through a telescope. Their daily dance around the giant planet changes by the hour.

Three dates see double-shadow transits across the face of Jupiter, June 4, 11, and 18. The waning gibbous Moon joins Jupiter and Saturn on the 8th. Jupiter is retrograding throughout all of June, appearing to move westward.

Saturn, also retrograding, moves along with Jupiter in the late evening sky. It, too, promises to attract “Ooohs” and “Aws” for first-time viewers.

Nothing beats seeing the rings of the planet against the black backdrop of space.

Uranus is 4 degrees north of the Moon on the 16th, becoming increasingly difficult to see as the blue-green planet hugs the morning horizon just before sunup.

Neptune is also in the morning sky, and a difficult object because of the low angle of the ecliptic.

Neptune and the Moon bracket Mars on the 12th.

Summer solstice is on June 20 at 21:44 UT. James Edgar has had an interest in the night sky all his life. He joined The Royal Astronomical Society of Canada in 2000, was National President for two terms, is now the Editor of the renowned Observer’s Handbook, and Production Manager of the bi-monthly RASC Journal. The IAU named asteroid 1995 XC5 “(22421) Jamesedgar” in his honour.

My Jesus knows

By Linda Wegner During this enforced period of isolation, I’m indulging in two things I absolutely love doing: weeding and reading. I won’t bore you with my stories of weeding but I want to share the beautiful truths I’m learning as I take this enforced time of partial inactivity to read.

I’ve recently picked up a borrowed book (thanks, Bob) titled “The Jesus I Never Knew” In it, author Philip Yancey, opens by sharing his religious background and perception of Jesus. Like him, I admit that I also held many common truths of who He was; but among them, little emphasis on the emotions He experienced and expressed. Somehow so many of us overlook those feelings He openly expressed: celebration at the wedding in Cana; grief at the death of his friend; dread of his coming flogging and death on the cross; disappointment at the betrayal of Peter; and, the list goes on. Being re-

COMMUNITY

minded of these things brings me comfort on those days when I struggle with my emotions during this challenging time.

Rather than pull us down even more by reiterating negative feelings, I’d like to remind us of how Jesus comforted the organizers of that wedding by turning water into wine. He wept at the death of Lazarus but then shared His power and elation at the raising of Lazarus. Even the dread of physical suffering was tempered by the knowledge that His death would be followed by burial, resurrection and the establishment of the church, the glorious emotion of true and unfathomable love.

“My Jesus knows just what I need…He satisfies and every need supplies. Oh yes, He knows just what I need.” (Song by Mosie Lister) “People with their minds set on you, you keep completely whole, steady on their feet, because they keep at it and don’t quit” (Isaiah 26:3. The Message)

Helen Marie Schensney (nee Schmidt) 1933 - 2020

With great sadness we announce the sudden passing of our mother, grandmother and greatgrandmother Helen at the age of 86 years.

Helen was born to Margaret and Peter Schmidt on their farm near Revenue, Saskatchewan, the second youngest of ten children. She completed her schooling in Revenue, then moved to the town of Unity with her parents when they retired and left the farm. It was in Unity where she worked as a telephone operator that she met her future husband Paul, who worked at the Bank of Commerce there. They married in August 1957.

Over the next 30 years Helen embraced her role as the “banker’s wife” in the various Saskatchewan towns Paul’s work led them to. In Prince Albert they welcomed their �irst daughter, Norine, and in Blaine Lake, a second daughter, Cheryl. They also spent many happy years in the communities of Rouleau, Redvers and Kindersley, playing an active part in the community and making lifelong friendships in every stop. No matter where they were, Helen and Paul always remained close to their siblings and their large extended family.

Helen enjoyed a long and happy retirement with Paul spending summers at their home in Kenosee Lake and wintering in Arizona. Golf became a passion for Helen and she often played 5 mornings a week in the summer months. She was a loving grandmother to her 4 grandsons, baking untold batches of cookies and tarts for her boys. Helen loved to socialize and was happiest when gathering with family and friends for “happy hour”, a barbeque, and a game of cards.

Helen moved to East St Paul, Manitoba in 2012 to be closer to family during her husband’s �inal illness.

She missed Paul greatly after he passed away in 2013, but she was determined to live out her �inal years as independently as she could. While not able to venture too far from home in recent years, she still enjoyed connecting with friends and family by phone, and cheering on her favourite curlers and golfers on TV. Helen’s feisty spirit will be missed by all who knew her.

Helen is survived by daughters Norine (Quentin) Harty and Cheryl (Dave) Storrow; grandsons Paul and Jeremy Harty, and Jonathan and Luke Storrow; two great-grandchildren Emma and Carter Harty; and siblings Lena (Tony✞) Bosch, Vera (Frank✞) Bosch, Eva (Fred✞) Keller and Bart (Doris✞) Schmidt. She is predeceased by her beloved husband Paul, and her siblings Peter, Frank and John Schmidt, and Carrie and Mary Yochim.

A memorial service will be held at a later date once public health restrictions have been lifted. Expressions of sympathy may be left at arbormemorial.ca.
