THE VIDEO TRIBUTE IS AVAILABLE BELOW.
With broken hearts we announce the passing of Gwendalyn Amber Taggart of Coleman, AB on June 3, 2021. She was taken from us too soon at the age of 45 years.
Gwen was born in Blairmore, AB on February 16, 1976 and she was a shining light right from the start. Filled with spirit, she brought joy to everyone she met. Along with her brothers, she was raised in a home filled with unconditional love and acceptance – traits she exuded throughout her entire life.
Gwen was an incredibly artistic person and she channeled her talents into a wide variety of mediums. She created countless beautiful knitting, sewing and crocheting projects, as well as many wonderful paintings. Gwen’s eye for balance and composition was also evident in every photograph she took. Among many other topics, she was very knowledgeable about art and antiquities, and she could expertly refinish furniture, bringing the pieces back to their original glory. In her quieter moments, Gwen could often be found enveloped in a good book, and she enjoyed getting in the car and driving to anywhere the road took her. She had a deep love for all animals and was a passionate member of the World Wildlife Fund. Gwen’s warm, compassionate, sometimes quirky, always loving disposition will be deeply missed. She may be gone from our sight, but she will never be gone from our hearts.
Left to mourn her passing and celebrate her life are her parents, Raymund and Marjorie Taggart of Coleman, AB; her brothers, Rick Taggart of High River, AB and David (Amanda) Taggart of Coleman, AB; her nieces, Stephanie and Elizabeth Brown; her nephew, Spencer Taggart; her best friend, Linda Dalman; and many aunts, uncles and cousins.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations will be gratefully accepted by the Crowsnest Pass SPCA (PO Box 725, Blairmore, AB T0K 0E0). Condolences may be registered at www.fantinsfuneralchapel.ca.
