Ellen Maria Steinthorson

Passed on

July 28, 1931 – June 21, 2024      Peacefully with family by her side Mom passed away (left us) to reunite with her husband Ragnar, sons Earl and Dale, grandson Tyler and son-in-law Jim.

Left to cherish her memory are daughter Dawn (Al), daughter-in-law Kathy; grandchildren Sheryl (Myles), Daryl, Brandee (Braeden); great grandchildren Colby, Natalie, Aidan, Natasha, Linnea, Waylon, and Tazmyn.

Mom enjoyed a busy and full life. She was born and raised in the Eriksdale area. After her and Dad were married they moved to Vogar where they farmed together and Mom taught at Vogar School. They later moved to Stonewall and Gunton where she worked at the Arris Centre, Jackson Insurance and Sigvaldason Agency.

She spent many hours sewing, knitting, and crocheting items for her family through out the years and all were made with love.

Upon retirement Mom moved to Lundar where she was very involved in the community. She enjoyed getting together with friends and going to the old Time dances. She enjoyed travelling to many different places after retirement. We were all a little concerned when Mom and her galavanting Grannies decided to drive to the Yukon. Mom, Nina, Edith and Thelma had many wonderful adventures on this trip and made it there and back safe and sound.

We would like to thank the Homecare staff and staff at Stonewall Hospital for all the care they provided to Mom.

Cremation has taken place and a private family interment will be held at a later date.

Donations in Mom’s memory may be made to Lundar New Horizons Club.

I am deeply saddened that I cannot call Ellen and say "hello" again. I had tried to reach her in 2024 summer and didnt know she had left. She was my teacher at Vogar and my sister Gayle and i lived with Amma and Afi and Ellen and Ragnar at the farm for 2 years as kids. I was 9. I kept in touch with Ellen over the years. She was a beautiful soul and brilliant person! I will so miss her. My Dad Al Patrick was friends with Ellen and Ragnar. My heartfelt condolences to the family. Carole Patrick
