REES

Rees - Laura Annabelle, born at Yorkton, Saskatchewan, on January 26, 1920, passed away at home on July 22nd, 2005. She is survived by her husband of 43 years, Dick, who lovingly cared for her at home since she was diagnosed with MS eight years ago. She is also survived by her son Allan Callard (wife Linda), granddaughters Nancy and Melissa, and great-grandsons Stewart and Nicholas.

Laura served in the armed forces during WW2. She was a member of the Order of the Eastern Star in Langley for over 50 years. She was a member of Sharon United Church for over 50 years, where she taught Sunday School for 15 years. Previous to retiring, she worked at Shoppers Drug Mart. Laura cared greatly for the community of Langley as was demonstrated by the recent donation of land by her and her husband for a park in Brookswood.

The family wishes to thank Dr. Hugh

Aspinall and special friends and neighbours.

A memorial service will be held at Sharon United Church, Murrayville, on Wednesday, July 27th, at 1:00pm.
