Obituary for Mildred Grennier
It is with great sadness. We announce the passing of our mother, Mildred Irene Grennier, at the age of 88.
Mom was born September 30, 1934 in Lavalle, the 3rd child, 1st daughter to Cecil and Mildred (Cutherbertson) Kellar, she had 9 siblings whom she remained close to her entire life.
She was united in marriage to Alan Grennier on May 25, 1956, they were married 56 years before he died in 2013.
Mom was a hard worker, both inside and outside the home. At home she was always baking canning, sewing, trying to stretch the dollar to continually make life better. Mom was very generous and loved giving and sharing. She volunteered her time to various organizations and her church.
After 20 years, in Atikokan, mom and dad venture to BC, Logan Lake is where they made their home. Travelling and new adventure’s became the way. Then in 2012, they moved to Fort Frances, and once again, Mom became involved in the community.
