Mrs. Marjorie Joyce Laframboise

Mrs. Marjorie Laframboise of Okotoks passed away at High River Hospital on September 15, 2022, at the age of 75, with her family at her side. Survived by her husband of 58 years, Robert Laframboise, her daughter Angela (Edwin) and her son Martin (Tammy); Grandchildren Christopher (Cynthia), Amanda (Matt), Nicholas (Jordyn), Jason, Sarah, Benjamin and her great grandchildren Brayson (Chris & Cynthia), Nash and Locklan (Amanda & Matt); her brothers Allen (Jackie), Ken (Shirley) and her sister Elaine. Marjorie is predeceased by her mother Katherine Rostad (2004) & her father Leif Rostad (1994) as well as her younger brother Brian (1986). Marjorie (Marj) was born November 19, 1946 in Shaunavon, Saskatchewan. It was in Shaunavon she met the love of her life – Robert (Bob) Laframboise. They married in Shaunavon, and not long after moved to the big city (Calgary) and together created over 58 wonderful years of memories. Marj and Bob moved to Okotoks and it is there that they have called home for the past 22 years. Of all the blessings that Marj had in her life nothing brought her more joy than her family and friends. She was a loving wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandma, great grandma (GG), sister and aunt. Marj had a love for quilting, sewing, knitting, painting, gardening, camping and so much more. She was an accomplished artist and excelled at anything she decided to try – she always made it look so easy. Marj and Bob often did projects together with Bob doing the woodwork and Marj doing the painting and design. Marj and Bob also loved spending their winters in Arizona and did so for many years. Our family would like to thank all of the staff at the High River Hospital for the exceptional compassion and care they gave to Marj during her time there. Thank you for taking such great care of our mom and making her so comfortable. Her spirit and strength were tested in the last few months, but in true style she never lost her sweet disposition, or her sense of humor and she always made the nurses smile. Marj will be greatly missed by those who knew and loved her. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, October 8th between 1:30 – 4:00 with Tribute Speeches at 2:00 p.m. - at St. Peter’s Anglican Church – 31 Riverside Way, Okotoks. Relatives and friends are invited to join us in celebrating our wonderful Marj. We will be gathering to share some of our favourite memories, our stories, to laugh, to cry and remember a wonderful person who is greatly missed. We will love you forever. Caring for the family is Lyle Reeves Funerals of High River (Craig Snodgrass) 403.652.4242.
