BENS, Martha Maria
August 5, 1925 - May 7, 2017
It is with great sadness we announce the sudden passing of our mother Martha Maria Bens.
Martha was born on the family homestead farm in Leofeld, Saskatchewan. She lived a long and adventurous life with many ups and downs, but always put family first. Mom will be remembered for her strength, sense of humor and "mother bear" instincts.
She will be dearly missed by her five daughters, three sons (one deceased) & their spouses, along with her 17 grandchildren & their spouses, plus her 14 great grandchildren, one sister & two sisters-in-law.
The family invites everyone to prayers and viewing on Sunday May 14th 2017 at 7PM at Saints Joachim and Ann Catholic Church 2827 - 273rd St. Aldergrove, and Funeral Mass on Monday May 15th at 10am at the same location.
Special thanks to everyone who helped Mom in her 91 years. Your care and love made Martha's life that much more meaningful. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.
We love you Mom, Grandma, Great Grandma
