Annie Reimer of Coaldale, Alta. passed away Dec. 5. She was born Mar. 31, 1928 to Cornelius and Margareta Petker in Coaldale, the eldest of 6 children.

Serving others was the theme of her life. This included teaching Sunday school, being involved in women's clubs and worked at the MCC store. Her joy and energies were mainly directed at raising her family for God. She faithfully supported Nick on the farm and in his preaching/teaching ministry. They shared a deep interest in world missions. Predeceased by daughter Bertha Geddert, 2 brothers and a sister, she is mourned by Nick; daughters Margaret Sherman, Doris Maxwell and Ruth Clark; sons Harold, Wesley and Arthur; 18 grandchildren; and 2 brothers.
