Goudy
Lorna Elizabeth
June 24, 1939 - March 10, 2024
We regret to announce the death of Lorna Elizabeth Goudy on March 10, 2024, at St. Mary’s nursing home in Trochu, AB, at the age of 84 years. Lorna was born at Armena, AB, on June 24, 1939, as the third of four children to Alexander and Clara Hamilton, and attended Victoria Cross High in Edmonton before working as a secretary for the Alberta Legislature. Having married John W. Goudy in 1962, she moved in 1971 with her husband and children to Drumheller, where her husband, John (predeceased, 1936-2023) was in the process of relocating Inland Plastics (a manufacturer and distributor of textiles). Besides being a wonderful mother & grandmother who loved getting her entire family together in the summer and at Christmas, Lorna will be remembered as an organist at her local church and as a founding member and leader of the local Christian Women’s (“After 5”) Club in Drumheller (in which she participated for several decades).
Lorna is predeceased by her parents, two of her three siblings, and recently by her husband, and is survived by her four children (Wes, Shaunah, Dawn and John), her 15 grandchildren (Myles, Kailynn, Alex, Kristin, Matthew, Karl, Rachel, Josiah, Carlin, Jacob, Mitchel, Rebekah, John Alec, Meaghan, Debrah), and her seven great-grandchildren (Clara, Elizabeth, Brielle, Rebekah, Renley, James, Benjamin).
A memorial service is being held at the Drumheller Nazarene Church at 10:30 a.m. on April 20, 2024.
