Verna Marian (Baker) Clark

The family of Verna Clark are saddened to announce her passing on Friday, June 5th at the age of 96.

Born and raised in Netherhill, she came to Kindersley at 17 and worked at Hawes Bakery, McEwens and as an operator at the telephone office.

She met and married Jim in 1953 and together they raised three children.

Verna went back to work from 1970-1990 in the dentist offices of Doctors Barry Boardman, Hal McCarter and Derek Rogers in reception and book keeping.

Her greatest loves were her family, her cats, and her music. Singing In the United Church choir and playing the handbells as well as playing her piano at home brought her much joy! Mom always said she was so lucky to remain as healthy as she was and be able to stay in her own home with her cat Cooper. Coop passed away Dec23/25.
