Harlan Gordon Waddle, beloved husband of Pat Waddle, passed away in Lethbridge on Thursday, September 20, 2012 at the age of 79 years.
A private family burial service was held at the Vauxhall Cemetery prior to the funeral service on Saturday, September 29, 2012.
The Funeral Service was held at the Royal Canadian Legion, 217 - 5 Street North, Vauxhall on Saturday, September 29, 2012 at 2:00 P.M.
Besides Pat, his loving wife of fifty nine years, Harlan is survived by their four sons Keith Waddle of Magrath; Lane Waddle of Medicine Hat; Lyle Waddle of Lethbridge; Dean (Connie) Waddle of Scandia. He will be fondly remembered by his grandchildren Jamie (Martha) Waddle and son Alex; Sheila (Robert) Stemberger and children Mya, Owen and Adam Harlan; Shawn Higa and his mother Bev Higa. Harlan is also survived by sister-in-law Myrna Waddle, aunt Effie Burge and numerous nieces and nephews. Harlan will also be fondly remembered by the extended Waddle and Broderson families and by Pat's family Jack Connor, Edith (Austin) Jorgensen, Dorothy (Dale) Rombough, Tom Connor, Linda Connor and their families.
He was predeceased by his parents Glenn and Marie Waddle; two brothers and sister-in-law Milton (Jean) Waddle and Ken Waddle; sisters-in-law Jean Waddle and Isabel Connor; niece Dalene Rombough, nephew Kevin Waddle and many aunts and uncles.
Harlan was born in Retlaw on December 3, 1932. He married Patricia Connor on July 24, 1953. In 1961 they moved their family to Taber where Harlan worked in the Laboratory at the Sugar Factory and in 1975 they moved to Lethbridge where he was employed with Canbra Foods for twenty years. Harlan enjoyed his years at Canbra Foods as the agriculture department he oversaw expanded to include the three prairie provinces, Montana, Idaho and Washington. He enjoyed the personal contacts, extensive travel and further education during that time. In 1996 he became manager of Southern Alberta Research. Shortly after, a severe case of shingles changed the state of his health completely.
Highlights in Harlan's life included times with his family, both immediate and extended. He recalled fondly the family reunions they would attend, special Christmases and the annual fishing trips to Vancouver Island with old friends over the course of thirty years.
Harlan was a gentle man who loved life. His gentle sense of humour and thoughtful nature will be dearly missed. Rest in Peace.
