Adelia Martha Nordin
Adelia Martha Nordin of Camrose, Alberta, formerly of Camrose North, passed away on Thursday, August 5, 2021, at the age of 95 years.
Left to cherish her memory are her children Ron (Norma Wasylishyn) of Leduc County, Terry (Marilyn) of Camrose, Willy (Isabelle) of Camrose and Deanna (Jim Radawetz) of Hay Lakes; eight grandchildren; thirteen great-grandchildren; and five great-great-grandchildren.
Adelia was predeceased by her husband Reynold; brothers Wilhelm and Ewald; sisters Annie Wegner and Hulda Anderson; daughter-in-law Doreen Nordin; and grandson Lee Nordin.
Born to Andrew and Henrietta Schoenknecht, Adelia grew up on a farm in the Hay Lakes area, and was the second youngest in a family of five children.
She attended Buskas School and as a young woman, worked at New Sarepta Hotel as a housekeeper until she met the love of her life, Reynold Nordin, and they married on November 7, 1947. They raised their family on a successful mixed farming operation. During their sixty years of marriage, they both enjoyed many things, which included square dancing, endless games of cards, lawn darts, washers and playing ball with their children and grandchildren.
Adelia took pleasure in treating family with special traditions, whether it was soft flatbread, pult, potato pancakes, fresh buns or angel food cakes. She enjoyed hosting family and friends on many occasions. She especially looked forward to attending bingo with her daughter, Deanna.
If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions in Adelia’s memory may be made to the Wilhelmina Lutheran Church building fund or the charity of one’s choice.
Due to concerns surrounding the COVID virus, a private family service has been held. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Edwin Peter Zimmer
May 6, 1931 ~ August 8, 2021
Edwin Peter Zimmer was born on May 6, 1931, the fifth child of Peter and Marie Zimmer. Younger sister Doris completed the family. Ed spent his entire life on the family farm in the heart of the Spring Lake community.
Ed married Darlene Seiferman in October 1953, and a year later, identical twin sons were born. Four more sons arrived in short order. The boys joined their parents working with dairy cows, pigs and chickens, as well as grain and hay crops. Ed took over sole management of the farm when his parents moved to Camrose in 1957. Until his passing, he continued to take an active interest in the crops, rainfall and harvest.
Life was not all work. As a young adult, Ed played hockey for the Daysland Northstars and baseball for Spring Lake, and in later years, rec hockey in Forestburg for the Heisler Winterhawks. For many years, he was a popular announcer at the local sports and baseball games. Ed enjoyed watching his sons as they continued to play baseball, even into their senior years. Afternoon games of horseshoes and evening card parties with wonderful neighbours and friends were so important in Eddie’s life.
Some of Ed’s proudest moments occurred during his fifty-eight years as an Elks member, including numerous terms as Exalted Ruler. He was generous with his time and talents, whether it be assisting with the building of the Heisler Community Centre, maintaining the Spring Lake ball diamond, or helping his neighbours. In recent years, the Blue Jays, Oilers and curling provided many hours of entertainment for Ed.
Left to cherish and celebrate Ed’s memory are sons Ron (Joni), Don (Darlene), Doug (Larene), Reg (Roxanne), Kevin (Joanne) and Kelly (Noreen); 19 grandchildren; 35 great-grandchildren; sister Doris Zimmer; sister-in-law Lorna Zimmer; in-laws Delmont and Cecelia Seiferman and Phil and Joanne Leigh; and numerous nieces, nephews and friends.
A Funeral Mass was held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, August 13, 2021, from the St. Martin Roman Catholic Church with Rev. Danial Dsouza as celebrant. Interment has taken place in the Spring Lake Cemetery.
If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions in Edwin’s memory may be made to Spring Lake Cemetery Fund (c/o Kevin Zimmer, Box 312, Daysland, AB T0B 1A0), or to the Heisler Community Centre. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Camrose Special Olympics athlete Chrissy Hillis, is taking healthy living to the next level with her recent completion of a Special Olympics Alberta Virtual Health Messenger Training.
“It’s all about helping Special Olympic athletes lead healthier lives,” said Chrissy, of her newly acquired training. “I will be advocating for their well-being and sometimes advocating to help them be able to speak up (about their own health), like when they are at the doctor.”
The Special Olympics Virtual Health Messenger Training (according to the Virtual Health Messenger Training Guide) is aimed at training Special Olympics athletes to serve as health and wellness leaders, educators, advocates and role models within their teams, Special Olympics programs, and communities.
The training is also intended to empower Special Olympics athletes to advocate for the health needs of people with intellectual disabilities.
The eight-session program, in which Chrissy was involved, trained eight selected Special Olympics athletes from across the province.
“There were only a few of us selected to take the program,” said Chrissy. “Carol Wideman was my mentor in Camrose.”
Chrissy said topics covered included: healthy eating, exercise, healthy habits and routines (such as getting quality sleep), how much water to drink, and the healthiest beverages to drink.
“At my heaviest, two years ago, I was 310 pounds,” admitted Chrissy. “When COVID hit, all the sports I was doing stopped. But then the Special Olympics PEAK program happened, and that is when I tended to lose weight. I was exercising more, walking more, getting out more, and I lost 50 pounds through that program.”
When so many others were worrying about gaining what has often been referred to as “COVID weight”, Chrissy took it on as a personal challenge and through hard work and dedication, started living her best life. Chrissy admits she struggles with some health issues as a result of having been overweight, so promoting a healthy lifestyle is very important to her.
“It is so important that people get healthy and stay healthy, not just Special Olympic athletes, but everyone.
“I learned through this program that healthy doesn’t just mean you are fit, it is your whole system. Living a healthy lifestyle has helped my mental capacity quite a bit, too,” said Chrissy, agreeing that is promotes a positive outlook.
According the Virtual Health Messenger Training Guide, the completion of the program requires each messenger to complete one health and wellness focused practicum in their communities or virtually within one year of receiving training.
For Chrissy, this entails doing some fundraising within the community to be able to provide healthy snacks to the Camrose Special Olympics athletes during sporting events.
She is hoping to get local businesses (or individuals) on board to help her with her quest to bring healthy snacks to the athletes in exchange for less healthy choices they may be inclined to eat or drink.
With hopes of getting her practicum work off the ground in September, Chrissy is excited to hear that Special Olympics plans to resume sports this fall and cannot wait to get back to basketball, baseball and softball, her sports of choice.
“I am so happy to be able to go back. These last two years, I have really missed the interaction with the athletes, and the sport itself. I am an athlete, so I really missed sports.”
Passionate about what she has learned and how she has implemented it into her own life, Chrissy will no doubt be a strong advocate of overall well-being and health and spread the message, not only amidst the Special Olympics community, but to the rest of the community as well.
Special Olympics plans to return to play in October of this year, dependant on provincial and Alberta Health Services recommendations.

Helpful Tips for Writing Classified Ads Which Get Results!
Be Thorough
Sure you want your ad to stand out from the rest, but don’t skimp on the sort of information that sells. The item’s condition, size, age, brand name, and colour are some of the basics readers want to know. Without them, your ad may be overlooked.
Steer Clear of Abbreviations
Okay, so you want to include all the important basics. Don’t use strange abbreviations because our ads are designed to spell all the important details. Besides, you are not paying by the line, but by the word, so there is really no need to abbreviate.
Be Honest
Exaggerating your item’s finer points may bring in a lot of responses, but a buyer who’s misled won’t appreciate it and will take his business somewhere else.
State Your Price
The cost of an item is one of the most important concerns of want ad readers. Ads showing prices are ones which get results. Giving a price also serves to “weed out” those buyers not in your price range.
Be Accessible
Including a telephone number or address puts you in touch with potential buyers. Be sure to state the hours you can be reached: a caller who can’t get through the first time often won’t call again.
Don’t hesitate to call us with any questions or problems you may have regarding advertising. Our professionally trained sales staff know the ropes, and would be happy to pass their know-how on to you. That’s why we’re here to help you get the results you deserve.
