Cindy (nee Bartosek) Skretting
May 21 1956 - July 26 2012
Beloved daughter, wife, mother, sister, aunt and friend passed away suddenly in Lethbridge at the age of 56.
She leaves behind her husband Lesley Skretting of Enchant and their four children she loved so much. Her daughter Karlene and three sons Logan, Landon and Clayson Skretting.
She is also survived by her parents Steve and Arlene Bartosek, her sister Pauline (Mo) Rusling and two nieces Shauna (Craig) Johns and Jaclyn (Steve) Hartwick.
Cindy was born in Raymond and moved to Lethbridge at a young age with her family. Growing up in Lethbridge she was involved in synchronized swimming and also took interest in high school politics.
Her first true love was flowers. After graduating from Lethbridge Collegiate Institute, Cindy went to Olds College to further develop her talents. Her travels even took her to Holland to further her studies.
Cindy’s passion in life was working with flowers and creatively expressing herself. She had a good eye and took pride in always doing her best work. So much so, she won recognition for her floral designs and window displays.
Cindy was known for her kind heart, her willingness to always go the extra mile, and the never-ending sacrifices that she made for those around her.
She had a contagious personality and laugh, and was one of those people that made you feel at ease and comfortable. You wanted her around, you wanted to keep her in your life, and her large group of friends is a testament to that.
Cindy’s most favourite memories included the time she spent with her close family and many dear friends. Whether it was a special occasion, crossing paths at the mall, or a long telephone conversation, Cindy always left those around her with a smile.
She was her children’s biggest fan in all aspects of life, not just athletic pursuits. From the start she was there for everything they were part of, and often went out of her way to make an average event something memorable.
Friends are invited to meet the family on Tuesday July 31, 2012 between 7 and 8 p.m. at CHRISTENSEN SALMON GENERATIONS funeral home, 703 13th Street North.
A Memorial Service celebrating Cindy’s life will be held at 11 a.m. on Wednesday August 1, 2012 at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, FAIRMOUNT CHAPEL, 205 Fairmount Blvd S.
A private burial will follow at Temple Hill Cemetery in Raymond.
