Astrid Misson

   It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Astrid Misson on May 18, 2023 at the Crowsnest Pass Health Care Centre, Blairmore, AB.  She was 93 years of age.

   Astrid was born in Coleman, AB to parents, Hilda and Axel Anderson on March 31, 1930.  She blossomed into a lovely young woman who captured the heart of Glenn Misson.  The two married and went on to be blessed with a beautiful family.

   Astrid was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.  Whether signing nursery rhymes to her children to help them fall asleep, going on camping trips, or on road trips to the lakes or falls, she loved every moment spent with her family.  Astrid was also well-known for her delicious baking, cozy knitting and bountiful garden.  She could often be found working in her garden, stopping only to wave and say hello to everyone who walked by.  Astrid enjoyed being a member of the Coleman Legion, and you could count on her to always speak her mind.  Hers was a life well-lived and she will live-on in the memories of all who knew her.

   Left to mourn her passing and celebrate her life are her children, Beverly (Charlie) Halliday of Westlock, AB, Judy (Ron) Ockey of Coleman, AB and Murray Newitt of Calgary, AB.

   She was predeceased by her husband, Glenn; her parents, Hilda and Axel Anderson; her children, Gary, Ronnie, Diane, Jean, Wendy and Gwen; and her grandsons, Richard and Christopher.

   A private family visitation will be held at Fantin’s Funeral Chapel.  Condolences may be registered at www.fantinsfuneralchapel.ca.
