  • Notes 
    • Edith Evelyn Ley was born August 5, 1909 to Albert and Jane Caseley at Caseleyville, AB. She got her education at Pleasant Heights School. She grew up in a large family, so her household tasks started at an early age.

      In 1931 she married William (Bill) Ley and moved to the Kirkpatrick lake district where they enjoyed farming and started a family. In 1938 they bought and moved to the George Ley farm in the Leeds District wehre they raised 5 children.
      In 1974 they bought a house in Veteran where they enjoyed their retirement years.
      Edith enjoyed her flowers in her yard and loved taking care of them. She belonged to the Veteran Seniors Club and enjoyed the weekly card games. Her hospitality was always open for a cup of tea and homemade cookies, which many people enjoyed.
      In June 2002 Edith moved to the Long Term Care in Consort due to failing health and in Jan of 2003 she moved to the Assisted Living in Coronation until she passed away at the Coronation Health Centre July 1, 2003. She will be sadly missed by all who knew her.
