Lenora Schlachter (nee Mastel) of Medicine Hat, beloved wife of the late Timothy Schlachter, passed away Tuesday, October 3, 2017 at the age of 77. Lenora leaves to cherish her memory four children, Denise (Aileen Speedie) Schlachter of Vancouver, Glenn (Vivian) Schlachter of Seven Persons, Brian (Laurie) Schlachter of Medicine Hat, and Janice (Brad) Herman of Schuler; nine grandchildren, Kristen (Ryan) Moore, Carson Moore, Colby Schlachter, Kaycee Schlachter, Graham Schlachter, Nathan Schlachter, Haley Herman, Chloe Herman, and Brody Herman; three great-grandchildren, Mikayla Moore, Emsley Moore, and Ophelia Moore; three sisters, Cecilia Klein, Rosella (Don) Hadnagy, Diane Assen and numerous nieces and nephews. Lenora was predeceased by her parents, George and Helen Mastel; four brothers-in-law; one niece and one nephew.
Lenora was born August 18, 1940, raised on the family farm, and received her education in the Conquerville area. Lenora married Timothy Schlachter on November 4, 1959. Together they farmed and raised their four children in the Conquerville district. In 1983 they retired to Medicine Hat where she enjoyed hobbies that included cooking, gardening, sewing, and painting. Together they enjoyed square dancing, travelling, and yearly trips to Vancouver. Lenora loved having her family around and there’s nothing she enjoyed more than dinners shared with them. What brought her the most joy though, were her grandchildren, whom she adored with all her heart.

It’s love that makes a house a home and love that keeps a family close.
Thank-you to a wonderful Wife, Mother and Grandmother for the wonderful example you’ve been to us all.

A Private Family Service will be held.
