Warren Francis Haraldson passed away on April 26, 2011 at the Rockyview Hospital in Calgary. He was born in Gull Lake, SK on August 16, 1927 to Grace and John Haraldson. After losing his father at the age of 4, Warren, his 5 brothers and 2 sisters were raised by their mother on the family farm.
A beloved husband to Nell for 61 years and loving father to Brenda (Don), John (Lori) and Debbie (Doug). His treasured grandchildren include Derek, Michelle, Colin, Cory, Cody, Cory, Holly and Kaylee and great-grandchildren Kora, Ella and Hansen. Warren will be sadly missed by his cherished nieces, nephews and wonderful friends.
He was a dedicated employee of Burns Foods for 42 years before retiring in 1988. Warren enjoyed cross country skiing, golf and fishing but his true passion was country music. He loved both singing and playing his guitar. Warren’s fondest memories were of family vacations to Saskatchewan and good times with brothers-in-law George, Jack and Rennie. We will always remember his warm and gentle spirit. Dad’s music will live on forever in our hearts. We will miss him.
