<div itemprop="description">Elly immigrated to Canada from Köln, Germany in 1953. She settled in Montreal where she owned and operated her own daycare, Tante Elly’s Kindergarten, for 25 years. In 1979, she moved to Alberta with her husband, Otmar. Elly loved camping and the outdoors especially Jasper National Park and Hubbles Lake. Family and friends were extremely important to Elly and she especially enjoyed the company of young children; her generosity and unique sense of humour will be long remembered. <br> <br> <br> <br>Elly leaves to mourn her daughter Ursula (Erwin); grandchildren Emily (Dustin), Cynthia (Mike) and David; five great-grandchildren (Daniel, Lydia, Matthew, Gabriella and Anna); siblings Anton, Hans (Gudrun), Anni and Wilhelm; brothers-in-law Eddy (Cathy) and Herwig (Jocelyne); numerous nieces and nephews; and close friend Jill. Elly was predeceased by her beloved husband of 45 years, Otmar; her parents Franz Johann and Katharina; and brothers Josef and Franz-Josef. <br> <br> <br> <br>In lieu of floral tributes, memorial contributions may be made to the Good Samaritan Seniors’ Clinic (www.gss.org) or the charity of one’s choice. As per Elly’s request, a private memorial gathering for family will be held at a later date. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br></div>
