Obituary

Lorna Anne Amendt passed away suddenly at her home in Red Deer on
October 29, 2024, at the age of 55 years.
Lorna was born on September 11, 1969, in Hanna, Alberta, the youngest child and only
daughter of Frank and Ann Amendt. When she was very young her family
moved to Grande Prairie, where she received most of her schooling.
She spent her last two years of high school in Delia following her
parents’ move to a farm in the Handhills. Lorna spent time at the
University of Alberta and Olds College, before moving to Red Deer to
study nursing. She proudly served the people of Drumheller as a
Registered Nurse for many years. Lorna enjoyed traveling, flowers,
crafting, cooking, dogs, decorating for Christmas, and spending time
with her extended family. She especially enjoyed being an aunt. She
fought a brave battle with ovarian cancer thirteen years ago, a battle
that she won, but which took a lasting toll on her health. She later
provided support and comfort to numerous others who were battling
cancer.
In 2023, Lorna sold the farm in the Handhills and moved with
her faithful canine companion Sophie to Red Deer. She enjoyed a year
there settling into her new home and enjoying the companionship of her
longtime friend Jennifer Morris.
Lorna is survived by her father
Frank (Lorraine) Amendt; her brothers Don (Rena), Glenn (Gail), and
Darcy (Susan); nieces Sarah (Kim), Phoebe (Aaron) and Amy (Kayle);
nephews Steve (Sarah), Matt (Emma), Adam (Kaitlyn), Gavin, Jackson and
Samuel; as well as numerous great nieces and nephews, aunts, uncles
and cousins. She was predeceased by her mother Ann Amendt, infant
brother Scott, and great nephew Levi.

A Family Memorial Service will
be held on Saturday November 23 at 1:00 PM at the Breton Community
Centre, 4715 – 50th Avenue, Breton, Alberta.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday November 24 at 12 Noon at the Jurassic Inn

Condolences

Danielle Davies:

My deepest condolences to all of Lorna's family and friends. I only met Lorna thru being her realtor in Red Deer but we quickly also became friends. Lorna was an incredibly sweet, kind and generous person. She was also witty and funny. We bonded over our love of dogs and her sweet puppy Sophie. I was so proud of her and everything she accomplished for herself. Lorna gifted me a beautiful front door wreath which is now hung in her honor.

Post Your Condolence
