Obituary of Adella Hardes

Adella Hardes passed away at Dr. Cooke Extended Care Centre, Lloydminster, Alberta, January 16, 2023 at the age of 82 years.

Adella Leer was born June 25, 1940 on her grandparents farm, west of St. Walburg. She was the eldest of five children born to Conrad and Olive Leer. On January 13, 1962 she married the love of her life, Leonard Hardes. 

Adella enjoyed the farm, curling, quilting, working at Credit Union, traveling, gardening, socializing with friends, old and new, and the many dances she attended listening to Leonard and his band play.
