Obituary of Eileen Elsie Lehne
Eileen Lehne
November 11, 1929-November 10, 2016
Eileen Lehne originally of Hanley, Saskatchewan passed away peacefully at the Saskatoon Convalescent Home one day before her 87th birthday on November 10, 2016.
She is survived by her two loving sons and daughter's in law Jeff (Judy) of Saskatoon and Terry (Lori) residing in Ontario. Mom was pre deceased by her wonderful parents Elsie and Norman Beaumont and her late husband of 49 years, Victor Lehne.
Mom grew up on the farm in Hanley with her brothers Wes (Fern) and Allen (Eleanor) and sister Gloria (Gord Armstrong). Mom and Dad were married in Hanley and moved to Saskatoon in 1949. Mom worked for several years at Schoen Jewellers, but her true joy was in serving many patients over the years at the medical practices of Drs. Hathaway, Kavanagh, Wheaton and Treen.
Mom always gave time to others. She was very involved in Bethel Church UCW putting on countless fall suppers and events. She also treasured her time at Eastern Star, holding all offices of the executive including Worthy Matron.
Until she was no longer able, Mom spent many hours tending her garden and visiting friends and seniors. She loved her many nieces and nephews, cousins, extended family and friends who benefitted from her kindness. She loved a good story and laughed heartily at them when we all got together.
Our family wishes to extend gratitude for the special care Dr. Debra Brodie provided to Mom for many years and also to the staff of Saskatoon Convalescent Home for their recent care and compassionate support.
