Vanda Lee Wilson

Wilson, Vanda (May 3, 1961 – August 22, 2021). It is with profound sadness that the family of Vanda Lee Wilson announces her sudden and unexpected passing on Sunday, August 22, 2021. Vanda will be deeply missed by her mother, Beverly Wilson, her sisters Vicki Mack (Will), Barb Wilson, her brother Doug Wilson (Raeleen), along with her nieces and nephews, Keli Wilson (Mathew Toll), Rayelle Wilson (Adam Abel), Royce Wilson, Adrianna Wilson, Melanie Paquette, Darryl Paquette and Shawn Mack and their families, and great niece and nephew Riley and Bentley Wilson Abel. Vanda will be fondly remembered by her cousins Patricia Jaeger (Steve Austin), David Baker (Linda), Doug Baker, Dennis Baker (Karen Kohut), Shelley Macnab (Sheri Benson), Paul Hendricks (Johanna), Donna Brunn (Dean), and Leslie Hendricks. Also left to remember Vanda is very special family friend Robert MacKay. Vanda was predeceased by her father, Roy Wilson, along with her uncles and aunts Donald Baker (Eileen), Barbara Macnab (Bruce Macdonald), Fran Hendricks (Don), Eva Delamare (Wilf), George Wilson (Eileen) and cousin, Brian Hendricks. Vanda was born in Outlook, SK and lived in Glenside until the family moved to Humboldt, where they owned the bowling alley and then The Robinson Store. They later moved to North Battleford where Vanda graduated high school and eventually settled in Saskatoon. Vanda spent a year in Japan, teaching, sight seeing and made many lifelong friends. Family was most important to Vanda and she made sure they all knew how special they were to her and how proud she was of them. Vanda enjoyed reading, music, watching tennis and good conversation. Vanda grew up spending summer vacation with her family at Turtle Lake and later loved watching her nieces and nephews enjoying the same experience she did and taking them for long walks with the dogs. Vanda’s family would like to extend a heartfelt Thank You to Dr. Darren Chew, Dr. Anil Sharma, Dr. Luke Hnenny, Alexa Hnidy, the doctors, nurses and all the staff at Royal University Hospital. A private family service remembering Vanda will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the animal rescue charity of your choice. Arrangements in care of Robert MacKay, Eternal Memorial Funeral Service and Crematorium, North Battleford, Saskatchewan.
