Edna Reardon

March 13, 1931 – October 29, 2026

It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Edna Eleanor Reardon on October 29th, 2026, at the age of 95.

Predeceased by her husbands James Reardon and Nick Lawrick and her son Tom Reardon, Edna is survived by her daughters Karan Reardon and Ellen (Dave) Klein, seven grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, one great-great-granddaughter, sister Evelyn Wismer, plus many nieces and nephews.

Edna was born on the family farm in the Wheatwyn District of Saskatchewan and was the beloved daughter of the late Jacob and Martha Ulmer. She was a sister to the late Margaret (George) Huber, Elsie (John) Kirsch, Bill (Elsie) Ulmer, Erna (Albert) Steinwandt, Louis (Louise) Ulmer, Ernie (Laura) Ulmer, Adeline (Joe) Brinkworth and brother-in-law Ray Wismer.

Edna grew up on the family farm until they moved to Regina. In Regina, she met the love of her life, Jim Reardon, and they married in 1950. In 1953 they moved to the family farm by Shaunavon, Saskatchewan, where they raised their three children. Edna loved to write and act out skits for any occasion. Many a fun time was had by her and her friends. In 1962 she started working at the Robinson Store in Shaunavon. After the death of her husband Jim, she moved to Assiniboia in 1987, where she was the manager of the Robinson Store until her retirement. In 1994 Edna married Nick Lawrick.

She was a lifetime member of the Royal Purple. She loved to travel. One of her favourite trips was to Nashville.

A private family graveside service will be held in Hillcrest Cemetery, Shaunavon, Saskatchewan, at a later date.
