Picture of Edith DAWSON

PIPPARD, Edith (nee Dawson) Edith (Edie) Pippard (nee_Dawson), passed away peacefully on July 17, 2008 at the age of 87 years. She is now back in the loving arms of her husband Charles Thomas Pippard who predeceased her November 16, 1977. Mom was a very devoted wife and mother who always put others before herself. She was the mother of: Ken Pippard (Roberta) of Calgary, AB; Dale Dawson (Sandra) of Fredericton, NB; Linda Clarke (Bob) of Kindersley, SK; Patricia Layton (Ralph) of Raymond, AB; Debbie McBeth (Bruce) of Calgary, AB. She was the coolest Grandma to Annette, D.J., Dan, Peter, Laura, Shauna, Kelliane, Spencer, Steven and Paige and a great-grandmother of seven beautiful children. Edie's passion for gardening was evident by her manicured and landscaped yard where you would find her sitting on her deck under the shade of her beloved apple tree. She loved her pets (whether feather or fur), her Calgary Stampeders and providing for her family, no matter what their age. She retired from SAIT in 1991 as the supervisor of the Post Office and Mailroom, was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 264 (Calgary) and held many offices in the Ladies Auxiliary. Edie had the ability to make everyone feel welcome and her sense of humor was enjoyed by all who knew her. We will miss the laughter and long visits at her kitchen table eating her out of house and home. She leaves behind a legacy of love, compassion, thoughtfulness and selflessness. Everyone who knew her were just that much richer for having had Edie in their life. The family wishes to thank the dedicated staff in Unit 1100 at MacKenzie Town Long Term care centre for their care and attention to our Mom over the past few years of her life. We invite you to join us in the celebration of her life on Friday, August 8, 2008 at 1:00 p.m. at SOUTH CALGARY FUNERAL CENTRE, 12700 Macleod Trail South, Calgary (Phone 403-297-0711).
