Obituary for Nadine Morrison (Haluschak)

Nadine  Morrison (Haluschak)
Mrs. Nadine Morrison (nee Haluschak), beloved wife of Mr. Don Morrison of Red Deer, Alberta, passed away peacefully at Harmony Care Home, Red Deer on Sunday, April 3, 2016 at the age of 92 years. Nadine was born at Vilna, Alberta to parents, Sam and Anna Haluschak. She attended Primary School at Vilna and then moved to Edmonton, Alberta, where she attended Teacher’s College. Nadine’s first teaching job was at Peace River, Alberta, a long way from home for a young lady to travel, but she was an adventurous sort. She then spent a year teaching at Poplar Ridge School, a year at Niobe School near Innisfail, Alberta, and then twenty-three years at the Red Deer Catholic School District at Montfort, St. Martin De Porres School, and St. Patrick’s Community School, Red Deer. While living and teaching at Poplar Ridge, she met her husband, Don and moved to the Shady Nook Community where they raised their six children and worked together to run the farm. Nadine was always a hard worker. She helped Don with the farm accounting, fed the harvesting crews, raised six children, and even went back to the University of Alberta to obtain a Degree in Teaching, her lifelong passion, where she made a difference in many children’s lives. After retiring from teaching in 1985, Nadine’s adventurous side led her to travel extensively, visiting eastern Canada, Europe and rural China, as well as enjoying cruises to the Caribbean and Panama. She continued to contribute to the community by delivering Meals On Wheels to seniors in need, and she spent fifteen years selling pull tickets to support the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre. Nadine also volunteered cooking many a meal for the Shady Nook Community Centre, and also served on their Board of Directors. Nadine will be lovingly remembered by her husband, Don; her six children, Pat (Sandy), Daryl (Lorraine), Margaret (John), Michael (Connie), Carole (Don), and Ross (Anne); seventeen grandchildren; Jennifer, Erin (Ryland), Carrie, Tara (Angus), Melissa, Kayla (Beau), Krista, Becky (Cory), Michael, Sheila (Cory), Laura (Doran), Colin (Kelsey), Greg, Scott, Ashley (Jeremy), Theresa (Manu) and Monica; and four great grandchildren; Lauchlin, Kalem, Logan and Ayla. Funeral Mass will be celebrated at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, 5508 – 48A Avenue, Red Deer, Alberta on Thursday, April 7, 2016 at 1:00 p.m. with The Reverend Father Jozef Wroblewski celebrant. If desired, Memorial Donations in Nadine’s honor may be made directly to the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation at www.stollerykids.com. The family would like to say a special thank you to Rene and all the girls at Harmony Care Home, for their loving care and compassion toward Nadine. Condolences may be sent or viewed at www.parklandfuneralhome.com. Arrangements in care of Maryann Hansen, Funeral Director at Parkland Funeral Home and Crematorium, 6287 – 67 A Street (Taylor Drive), Red Deer. 403.340.4040.
