Atchison: It is with great sadness that the family of Edward (Ted) Norman Atchison announces his passing on April 22, 2020. Ted was born April 6, 1926 to the late Price and Georgie Atchison. He married the love of his life Lillian Kruger on June 20, 1951. Ted’s greatest passion was his family. Ted made his living farming and enjoyed the farm life and country living. Ted is survived by his wife Lil, his sons Tim (Sheila), Les (Jackie), Larry (Caroline) and daughter Tina (Pat). He is also survived by his Brothers Doug (Sheila), Don and sisters Myrna, Elizabeth (Allan). He was also survived by 10 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and numerous nephews and nieces. He was predeceased by his parents and his sisters Mary and Joyce and his grandson Terrence. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In memory of Ted, donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Manitoba or the Souris Hospital Palliative Care Fund c/o Prairie Mountain Health Box 10 Souris, Manitoba R0K 2C0.
Our condolences to Tim and Sheila and family. May you feel Gods closeness and comfort as we all pray for you. May God heal the broken heart.
Ted was a people person, he always had a joke, a laugh and a smile for everyone. My earliest memories of him were standing at the front of the stage at the Findlay Xmas concerts telling the story of the old woman that swallowed a fly, standing behind the counter at the Findlay store or on the farm on the highway. A good friend to all of our family, a good neighbour and a great person to know. Ted will be missed by everyone who knew him.
Lillian, Tim, Les, Larry and Tina & families
