.BRIAN BAUMAN
1960 – 2013
After a lengthy and courageous battle with cancer, it is with heavy hearts that we the family of Brian announce his passing on Friday, August 2, 2013. Left to cherish his memory is his loving wife and best friend, Milvia; his children, Matt (Kyla) and Megan; his grandchildren, Jackson and Gia; his mother, Marion Bauman; his brother, Doug (Brenda) Bauman and his sister, Brenda (Russ) Farwell; his nieces and nephews, Julie (Matthew) Burbidge, Scott Bauman, Kristine Farwell and Steven Farwell and his sister-in-law Sabina (Joe) Dominioni. He was predeceased by his father Bill and his mother-in-law Maria Dominioni. Brian was born on May 6, 1960 in Saskatoon to Bill and Marion Bauman, the youngest of the three children. Brian remained in Saskatoon until the age of 11, when the family moved to Medicine Hat in 1973. Brian attended Crescent Heights High School and graduated in 1978. Upon graduation, Brian attended Medicine Hat College, University of Lethbridge, and University of Calgary, obtaining a Bachelor of Commerce in 1985. During the summers, Brian worked for his father, Bill, on the paving crew at South Rock. After working for Amaco Petroleum in Calgary for two years, Brian moved back to Medicine Hat, purchased the Yellow Submarine franchise and eventually opened a second location. In 1993, Brian married his best friend, Milvia, and together, along with her son Matthew, became a family. To complete the family, Brian and Milvia were blessed with a baby girl, Megan, in 1994. One year later, Brian joined his brother, Doug, at Sports Connection and in 1996, both Doug and Brian started the Boarding House as a separate business. Eventually Brian and Milvia purchased Sports Connection from Doug and his wife Brenda in 2005. They continued to grow the business until his illness. Brian was passionate about the community and the importance of giving back. In his spare time, he was involved with Kiwanis, Kinsmen, Hillcrest Church, and Movember. Brian was very active and supportive in his children’s activities, from ballet to hockey and everything in between. He enjoyed fishing, golfing, and NFL, his favourite team being the New England Patriots.

.STANNARD, Ashley Danielle
With overwhelming sorrow we share the passing of Ashley Danielle Stannard on August 2, 2013 at the age of 23 years. She will be lovingly remembered by both her parents Daniel and Judy Stannard; sister, Tanya McCormack (Mike); brothers, Tyler Stannard (Samantha), Austin Stannard; Gramma Jessie Cosgrove and Grandpa Dave Stannard. She will also being lovingly remembered by uncles, aunts and cousins; Dean and Vonda Cosgrove, Robert, Ritchel and Tashena, Donna and Gary Epp, Tim and Jessica, Lacey and Cody Cosgrove, Christine and Gary Benson, Scott, Melissa and Taylor, David Stannard, Joey and Jordan, Dianne Ziegenhagel, Jake and Maddy; and numerous other relatives. She was predeceased by her grandpa Peter Cosgrove, uncle Rick Cosgrove, Grandma Eleanor Stannard, Great Grandma Heise, and cousin Kirstin Benson. Ashley was conceived as a twin but her sibling didn’t survive to full term. The year and a day difference in age between her and her older sister and their extremely close relationship fooled most into believing that they were twins. She was born in Medicine Hat and lived in Davenport Iowa for the first year of her life. The family then moved to Calgary where she resided until her passing. She was extremely intelligent as well as beautiful and excelled at academics. She loved very deeply, always forgave quickly and gave generously of her time, talents and finances without limits. Ashley lived out her life fully for God but especially over last few months she completely trusted Him with her life. She was a natural leader and very passionate about basketball in her teen years and played point guard even though she was usually the shortest player on the team. As a family, we were so blessed to have taken many trips to various sunny destinations and always treasured our time together. She was always encouraging and her compassionate and wise advice were often sought out by her family and friends. She graduated from Grant McEwan University December of 2012 as a Psych Nurse and looked forward to using her compassionate skills to form her own home care company. She will be missed terribly by all that were fortunate enough to know her. A Celebration of Ashley’s Life will be held at Centre Street Church (Main Campus) 3900 – 2 Street N.E., Calgary, AB on Friday August 9, 2013 at 11:00 a.m. In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to God’s Littlest Angels Haitian Baby Ministry via the website http://www.glahaiti.org. Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family via the website http://www.fostersgardenchapel.ca.
