Obituary of Marj Boden

Marjorie Lynn Boden

(March 8, 1963 - January 16, 2021)

Marjorie Lynn Boden of Ferintosh, Alberta, passed away on Saturday, January 16, 2021 at the age of 57 years.

Marj was born on March 8, 1963 in Camrose Alberta to Art and Crystal Reeves. She was raised on the family farm near Dorenlee, Alberta. Being raised on the farm she helped harvest the garden, mow the lawn, milk cows, feed cattle, bail hay, and straw and whatever else was needed. Marj attended Meeting Creek school until she completed grade eight and then attended Edberg School.

In April of 1983 Marj married Greg and had three boys Mike, Brad and Steve. Marj and Greg stayed on the Reeves family farm farming along side Marj’s parents Art and Crystal. They had a mixed farm of grain, cattle, and a few horses. Life on the farm with Greg and their boys with her parents not far away was all she could ever ask for. She loved her family more than words would ever describe.

Marj also worked at Bashaw School as an educational assistant and administrative assistant for over 25 years. She was involved in many school events from planning, organizing, and attending. She really enjoyed her library and reading to the younger classes and helping the older ones through their courses. The library was where strong and caring relationships were created with students and staff; everyone’s go to!

When Marj wasn’t working on the farm or in the school her and Greg would be busy moving grain bins across the province, a business they took over from Greg’s father. When she wasn’t busy working, she couldn’t have been more involved in the lives of her family, following along to ball games, hockey games, hunting, and camping.

Whether it was the farm, the bin business, or her family she was everyone’s best friend and right-hand man, shoes only she could fill. Amazing wife, mother, daughter, and sister.
 

Left to cherish her memory are her husband Gregory; sons Mike (Erica Reid) of Camrose, Brad (Raelyn Michie) of Ferintosh, and Steven (Lianna Bos) of Camrose; mother Crystal Reeves; and sisters Doreen (Dave) Grue of Camrose and Debbie (Roger) Thompson of New Norway.

Marjorie was predeceased by her father Arthur Reeves; father-in-law Heinz Boden; and brothers-in-law John Boden and Doug Boden.
