It is with heavy hearts that we mournfully announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Mary Edith Fiddler Jr. on August 19, 2018 at the QE11 Hospital in Grande Prairie, at 70 years of age.
Mary was born in Timmins, Ontario in 1948 and regardless of where Mary was living, Timmins was where she called home. Mary worked hard her entire life, even in her retirement. Mary will be remembered for her kind, caring and feisty personality. She loved cooking, baking, gardening, knitting slippers playing Bingo, fishing and most of all to spend time with her family, grandchildren and great nieces and nephews.

She is also survived by her sisters Laura (Ted) McGarry, Nancy (Joe) Harry, Gwen (Gord) Deforge, Darlene (Matt) Hopson, Bonnie (Seppo) Vateja, Cindy (Bill) Morgan and numerous nieces, nephews, great nephews and great nieces.
