Evadine Shirley McGregor (Trumbley)
With broken hearts we say goodbye to our wonderful, loving mom/grandma/great-grandma/aunt & friend as she left us to go join Dad and numerous members of her beloved family & friends in heaven.
She was born May 17, 1930 and raised in Carbon Alberta. When she came to Calgary she met & married our Dad-Bill McGregor. She worked for many years at Eatons and the post office; had 3 children and was a loving care attendant for the seniors at the Sunset lodge and Agape Manor Hospice.
Mom was such a loving caring woman who would open her arms and her heart for everyone no matter what. She was always there if you needed a hug, a shoulder to cry on, or just someone to share your day with. She loved to be with her friends and family listening to music, dancing, sharing a good joke or just sitting and chatting with her coffee and a smoke.
We will definitely miss everything about mom but especially her love, her warm smile and how she would sing “have I told you lately how much I love you“ to absolutely everybody.
We love you so much mom & are so thankful that we had you for our mom. We miss you terribly but are happy that you have no more pain, just love, peace, and of course, dancing with Dad.
Richard and Debbie, Ron and Norma, Cindy and Tim, all your grandkids, great grandkids, nieces and nephews, cousins and friends.
Thanks to Dr Cunningham, all the nurses & staff at Walden Heights for their years of care for mom.

Auntie Evadine always seemed to have a twinkle in her eye! We loved getting together with her and her sisters (she was the youngest) because it meant lots of stories, lots of jokes and lots of laughs! She was so proud of her kids and their offspring. I don’t think I ever heard her say a bad word about anyone. She was a special lady and she will be missed!
Mom had such a great smile. And a great twinkle in her eyes when ever we saw her. Loved sitting with her when ever she was having her coffee and cigarettes. I always felt so special when she would take my hand and hold on to it What a special person she was Our family’s hearts and prayers go out to our family.
I wanted to let you all know how sorry I am about Evadine’s passing. When I first met her I was only 17 and she was so kind, loving and immediately accepted me into the family. You could talk to her about anything and we had so many long talks usually filled with laughter. Evadine was a huge support to me and I loved her very much. Please know that I am thinking of you all and sending my love. Cathy
