OTKE, Selma Marie (nee Borger)
Age 88, went to be with her Lord on Thursday, December 10, 2015, in 91原创, BC, in the presence of her family. Selma was born October 22, 1927, in Morse, SK. She graduated in 1952 as a Registered Nurse in Edmonton, AB, and worked as a stewardess for Trans Canada Airlines (aka Air Canada) from 1952-54 until marrying her husband, Paul, in 1954. Selma pursued a nursing career that spanned 5 decades, during which she touched many lives and cared for countless people. She most enjoyed the simple pleasures in life - her family, her grandchildren, gardening, playing scrabble, volunteering, enjoying long walks and travelling the world.
She is survived by her husband, Paul; children, Carmen (Robert), Rhoda (Jerry), Laura (Steve) & Jayson; grandchildren, Katie (Davis), Danielle, Cameron, Kirsten, Andrew (Julia), Matthew, Aaron, Joel & Emma; brothers Bill, Henry & Gus (Iris), and many nieces, nephews and cousins. A celebration of Selma's life will take place at Trinity Lutheran Church in Abbotsford, BC. Donations in memory of Selma can be made to World Vision (www.worldvision.ca).
