Martha Louise Meyer
December 4, 1938 ~ November 10, 2022
It is with great sadness we announce that Martha Louise Meyer passed away on Thursday, November 10, 2022 at the age of 83. Martha will be lovingly remembered by her daughter Valerie; daughter-inlaw Janelle; grandson Luka; sister Iris (Len); brothers Louis, Dennis (Linda), and Bruce (Dan); and numerous nieces, nephews, and friends. She was predeceased by her husband George in 2020 and missed him dearly. Martha was born in Fort Vermilion, Alberta and was the first child of Fred and Kathleen Batt. She grew up in the small farming community of Rocky Lane, on her parents’ farm. She attended school at the one-room school house across the road, Batt School. When Martha completed grade eight, she left home so she could continue on in school as Batt School only went up to grade eight. She moved to Sexsmith, Alberta, and completed Grades 9, 10, and 11. Her next move was to Peace River, where she attended Grade 12. Once she completed school, she moved to Edmonton, where she enrolled at McTavish Business College, and then went on to work at an insurance office in Edmonton. During a trip home for Christmas, Martha was introduced to George Meyer (the new teacher at Batt School). They began visiting and writing, and soon George presented her with a ring. They married in July 1962, in Rocky Lane. A year later, their daughter Valerie was born. Martha worked as a school secretary at Rocky Lane School until 1979, when the Meyer family moved to Bawlf. Two years later, Martha and George built their dream home in Camrose, but continued commuting to Bawlf for work. Eventually, Martha became the school secretary at Bawlf and continued working there until she retired.
Martha had so many talents and was always busy doing something. She spent many hours sewing clothing, doll clothes, aprons, and quilts. She also made Petit Point jewelry and completed numerous pictures in Petit Point. She made beautiful knitted afghans, scarfs, and wool jackets, and she seemed to know how to fix just about anything. Martha was an incredible baker and always had a neat way of making anything she made just a little more special. Martha made the best shortbread cookies and the best Christmas pudding … and that was just the tip of the iceberg. All of her cakes, pies, cookies, or desserts had a little decoration or special design cut into the crust. That was Martha’s way. If Martha and George weren’t busy enough with work and antique shows, they also started selling baking at the Camrose Farmers’ Market. Martha loved music, especially country music. She loved attending BVJ with George every year until they could go no longer. With her love of music also came her love of ballroom dancing and square dancing … and she had a great dance partner.
Martha was all about family and loved spending time with loved ones over a nice supper, card game, or a cup of coffee. Many phone calls started with, “I was just thinking”, and by time the conversation was over, she had a plan and it would definitely happen. Martha had very special relationships with her sister Iris, sister-in-law Shirley, and friend Myrt Hooper. Whether it involved crafting, shopping, or card games with the husbands, Martha spoke fondly of the times she spent with them. She loved the phone calls she received from Louis and Dennis on Sunday morning; was always so excited when Bruce and Dan came for a visit; and cherished the time she spent with Iris, having coffee, talking, and working on a puzzle.
Martha’s pride and joy was her grandson Luka, or “Grandma’s boy” as he was often called. Whether they were playing Yahtzee, painting fingernails, creating a hairstyle, or just watching TV together, they had a connection like no other. Her phone calls will forever be missed.
In addition to everything else, Martha was an amazing mom who put family at the top of the list. She was always just a phone call or a short drive away and could pretty much answer or solve anything. She made occasions like Christmas and birthdays extra special by cooking a favourite meal or with unique and thoughtful gifts. She will be dearly missed by her daughter Val. They spent many evenings talking, putting puzzles together, having tea, or going for drives. Janelle, Val, and Luka will always remember what they call “Martha-isms” or funny things Martha would say, but strangely made sense.
A private family service was held.
Martha’s family would like to thank the staff at Bethany Meadows for everything they did and do on a daily basis.
Martha loved flowers, but in lieu of flowers, she would want you to buy a puzzle or game and spend time with your family. Or she’d want you to go out for a really nice supper together (probably Chinese food), because Martha was all about family and traditions.

Mary Eleanor Finley
Mary was born on January 26, 1928, at Mowbray, MB, to Hank and Annie Lone, the tenth of eleven children. She passed away peacefully on November 13, 2022, at the age of 94. Left to cherish her memory is her loving family, daughters Marilyn Bittorf, Judy (Miles) Christianson and Gail Finley; grandchildren Steven Bittorf, Darren (Dawn) Bittorf, Lisa (Kurt) McGregor, Kerri Paterson, Joshua (Alicia) Finley, and Megan (Daniel) Mantey; and greatgrandchildren Brandon Tucker, Emma Bittorf, Makenna and Addison McGregor, Kaitlyn and Spencer Paterson, Kayne, Tristyn, Jax and Kruz Finley, and Zachary, Mikayla and Reid Mantey. Mary is also survived by one sister Doris Nield of Virden, MB; sisterin-law Audrey Lone of Morden, MB; and brother-in-law Doug Dodds of Souris, MB; and many other relatives and friends. She was predeceased by her husband Alvin, son Lyle, daughter Diane, seven brothers, two sisters, nine sisters-in law and four brothers-in-law.
Mom was always there for us and taught us the value of maintaining family ties. She grew up in a large family of eleven kids and, being the second youngest, learned a lot about family, homemaking, and caring for others. Mom would do anything for anybody. She was the ultimate volunteer and loved what she called “the camaraderie” of the people with whom she volunteered. If any of her friends called her to go for coffee, it didn’t matter if she was washing clothes, baking or anything else, she dropped what she was doing and went. Her friends were so important to her. Both Mom and Dad spent hundreds of hours volunteering, whether it was chaperoning teen dances (to the chagrin of those of us attending those dances!), flipping burgers at the Moose booth at the Camrose Fair, bingos, Big Valley Jamboree, Legion activities, breakfasts – just wherever they were needed. In 2020, Mom reached a monumental achievement and in recognition of her 50 years of dedication to the Women of the Moose; she was honored with a Life Membership Certificate. Their involvement in the Legion was also important to both of them as Dad served in the Navy as a young man and was so proud of the veterans. Mom was also a loyal supporter and volunteer at Camrose United Church. Mom continued to donate regularly to the church, long after her mobility issues made it a challenge to attend. She met so many longtime friends during her volunteer days.
Mom and Dad were childhood friends growing up, and eventually they married on August 23, 1947. Life wasn’t always easy, but they made a great life for themselves and our family over the years.
Mom and Dad had a wonderful and long retirement, spending many years in Mesa, Arizona, travelling extensively, camping, and enjoying watching their grandchildren and great-grandchildren grow and flourish.
When living in their own home became too much for them, they moved to Brookside, and ultimately to Rosealta Lodge in Camrose in 2015, where Dad passed away in 2016, and Mom lived until her passing. She made great friends there among the residents and staff.
She was a wonderful Mother, and we will miss her very much.
A Celebration of Life for family and friends will be held in the spring of 2023.
If family and friends so desire, memorial donations in Mary Finley’s memory may be made to the Alberta Cancer Foundation or Camrose United Church.

Continued from page 29
“Everybody has to contribute. Everybody needs to do a job and that is the same with life. If you wait for somebody else to do it, it is likely not going to get done.”
Cooper added that being in organized sports has also opened doors for him that may not have otherwise been available, such as having his post secondary education looked after and being able to travel to go to school and meet new people.
“Even if you don’t make it to the pros, you are still getting the experience and lessons you get from coaches and you get to meet a lot of people along the way. There are also career opportunities that can come of being in organized sports.”
These three young men epitomize what hard work, dedication, passion and service to your community can do and are just beginning to reap their just rewards as they move forward in their academic and sport playing careers towards bright futures.
Get Decating,Camrose!

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.

In-hospital labs for patients only
By Murray Green
Starting on December 5, the labs at the Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose, will shift their focus to the needs of emergency, inpatient and ambulatory patients only.
All Albertans can continue to access lab services at their local community laboratory sites.
This change is being implemented only in areas where community lab collection sites are already operating. In most cases, the nearest community site is within two kilometres of an acute care centre.
This is one step towards the larger transition of community lab services from Alberta Precision Laboratories (APL) to DynaLIFE Medical Laboratories. By transitioning community lab services to DynaLIFE, APL may be better able to maintain lab quality and provide a more efficient, effective and sustainable laboratory system that supports Alberta’s ever-growing demand for lab testing.
As clients are currently able to book appointments 90 days in advance, clients looking to schedule an appointment in a hospital facility to take place after December 5 will no longer see appointments available. Walk-in patients who arrive at a hospital lab after that date will be re-directed to a nearby community lab site.
Hospital laboratories will continue to serve immunocompromised patients by physician or clinic referral only. APL is a wholly owned subsidiary of AHS, delivering high-quality, responsive diagnostic lab services to Albertans across our health care system.
Alberta Health Services is the provincial health authority responsible for planning and delivering health supports.

The rewards of being a Booster Carrier
go beyond enjoying g earning personal spending money...spendingmoney...
Since The Camrose Booster first started publishing the community’s favourite newspaper back in 1952, we’ve relied on carriers to look after delivering our publications and flyers for our valued customers. It’s a job that has been a wonderful first job, stepping stone, interim employment or retirement hobby for countless people. Hundreds of families in the past 70 years have become “team carriers” with the objective of saving money for a family vacation, major purchase, college, university or other education. Carriers are required to deliverThe Booster and inserts on Tuesdays. We will deliver these to a drop-o point on your route or you may pick them up at our o ce. Minimum age is 12 years; approximately half of our routes are delivered by adults.
Reasons to Consider Joining our Team:
1. Spending money
You are paid CASH, immediately following the completion of your route, or whenever convenient for the carrier. 2. Great way to learn responsibility
Parents of carriers from years gone by routinely report lessons learned from having a scheduled carrier route were the basis or foundation for their child’s other successes in life’s path. 3. Get paid while you get exercise and fresh air
This is the reason we are attracting a growing number of adults (many age 50-plus!) to do their own route. Over half our routes are delivered by adult carriers. 4. Convenient hours
After school delivery of The Booster on
Tuesday afternoons seems to work for most families. Adult carriers may pick up Boosters at our shop by 1:00 p.m. on Tuesdays.
Routes are to be completed by 7:00 p.m. 5. We o er a route that is close to your home
We make it easy for you to access your papers so your route can be quickly completed. Papers may also be picked up at the Booster o ce if you wish. 6. We do all of the interleaving of flyers for you!
Your job is simply to provide thorough and ultra-reliable delivery. We do the rest! Please pick up an application form at our o ce and join the Home Team today!
