Donna Meier

Donna passed away on Thursday, March 19, 2026 at the age of 82 years old. She is lovingly remembered by her husband, Don; daughter, Lori Ostergaard; grandson, Markus Ostergaard; her sister, Bobbie Livingstone and family (Saskatoon); and sister in-law, Sharon Kimble and family (Grande Prairie). She was predeceased by her parents, Leonard and Dorothy Ashworth; and parents-in-law, Philip and Stephina Meier.

Donna was a gentle lady who treated everyone with respect. She was born in Quebec and raised in Saskatoon. As an adult she moved to Alberta living in Fox Creek and Edson. The family had the opportunity to live in Dubai, UAE for eight years and during that time travelled to many countries in the Far East and Europe. Upon returning to Canada she returned to Edson for a short time followed by Cochrane and Carstairs, Alberta.

Donna enjoyed travel including spending winters in Arizona and taking cruises to many parts of the world. Her passion was to scrapbook photos and keepsakes from all of the places she visited. She started scrapbooking after a trip to Kenya. She also collected paintings and prints as reminders of her travels. While in Edson, Donna worked as a Teacher's Aide helping students from grades 1 - 3. She enjoyed this work very much. Donna loved animals. In her youth, her family had race horses and she worked in the barns. If there was a dog or cat nearby they were guaranteed to get lots of attention and treats.

The family would like to thank the staff of Unit 36 (Special Services Building) at the Foothills Medical Centre and at Dulcina Hospice for their care and attention during her hours of need. A celebration of life will be held in the early summer at Hillcrest Funeral Home and Cemetery in Saskatoon.
