A New Life’s Journey… Just a short time ago, relatives and friends joined the family of Anne Hildenbrand at Holy Family Parish to see her off as she set out on her new life journey with Christ. Vigil Prayers the evening prior to Mass offered family an opportunity to share some of their favorite memories through a video tribute prepared by Anne’s granddaughter, Carrie… The following morning, Father Philip Le celebrated the Mass of Resurrection with Carrie, Falon and Jeff sharing readings and prayer in honour of their Grandma. Following the Committal Service, fellowship continued at Anne’s residence as the driveway was lined with chairs filled with friends sharing some of their many precious memories!A new life journey,
Christ is her guide,
Granted eternal rest,
Her soul now Sanctified.
Her Life Lived…
Her Life Cherished…
Her Life Honoured.

Maria was predeceased by her twelve siblings. Born on a farm near Walsh, Maria lived most of her life in Medicine Hat where she and Bus, married for 53 years, raised their six children, enjoyed family, music, and many other gifts from God. She was educated in Maple Creek and continued her education through courses at Athabasca University and Medicine Hat College. For 60 years she was an active member of the Catholic Women’s League.
