sk. hrt" i.fr.tf, Vtf BORDEN, Ronald After a long and valiant battle, it is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Ronald Borden on September 9, 2019 at the age of 85 years. Ron will be lovingly remembered by his family including his wife of 64 years, Lois; son Mark (Barb); son Rick (Adele); son Jeff (Tracy); daughter Karen (Kevin); daughter Kim; 10 grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren. Ron loved spending time with his family and truly enjoyed his grandchildren. Ron was born on July 15, 1934 in Standard, Alberta.

He graduated in 1958 with a Bachelor of Theology, and worked as a Minister for approximately 15 years. Ron later received a Master's degree in Psychology and Counselling and worked in the mental health field in both the United States and Canada before taking a position with the Saskatchewan Public Service with the Ministry of Culture and Youth. In 1983, Ron embarked on his dream job as Executive Director of the Saskatchewan Museum of Natural History. Over the next 13 years, Ron worked passionately to promote the Museum's work, which included such highlights as the discovery of the Scotty T.rex dinosaur bones in Eastend and the addition of Megamunch, Canada's first resident robotic dinosaur. People that knew Ron will remember a mind that was incredibly inquisitive, his kind and warm personality, his leadership and passion for his work, and his wonderful humour.

Even in his last years he would often catch people off guard with his witty comments. Residents at Santa Maria will fondly remember his enthusiastic outbursts of Amen! during mass. The family would like to thank the staff of the 3rd floor at Santa Maria for the loving care they provided to Ron. A private family service will be held at a date later this year. Flowers most gratefully declined.

Patricia was the most beautiful person, both inside and out. She loved and cared for all who were dear to her.

Born in Regina on February 9, 1941, Patricia moved to Toronto in the early 1960s where she was a model, hostess and manager at some of the most popular spots in Toronto. She loved to come back to the prairies and bring her family the latest in big city fashion, treats, and Jazz music. Patricia returned to Regina in the late 1970s to raise her children, where they had a wonderful life in Argyle Park, made better by frequent trips to visit family at her beloved Qu'Appelle valley near Tantallon. Since 1996, Patricia resided at Buena Vista, where she lived her best life with her wonderful community of friends. For the past fifteen years, she looked forward to her annual family vacation at Sunset Beach, Crooked Lake, SK, where she enjoyed the company of her family all together and seeing her special friends and family from the area.
