November 6, 1926 - December 9, 2020
It is with mixed emotions we said goodbye to our mom, Eva Christina Brule (nee Frank) who passed away December 9, 2020. Eva slipped away peacefully at the Olds Hospice Society at the age of 94 years.
She was born in Regina Saskatchewan on November 6, 1926. Eva met Marcel Norman Brule and was married on April 21, 1945. Eva had a passion for reading and over the years supplied many library’s with books for their shelves. As well, she regularly donated books for fundraising for cancer. Anyone who read got books from Eva, always with her initials and review in the front! In her early years, she was very passionate about sewing, making many items of clothing and quilts for her kids and grandchildren with love. Eva loved children and was a very active foster mom, fostering many challenged children over the years; 22 to be exact. In her later years, Eva mastered the computer and could be found many days ordering whatever she needed off the internet, and playing hours of games, learning about new programs, surfing Facebook, and watching Netflix.
Eva is survived by her children Marcel Arthur (Hilda), Patricia Yvonne, Nancy Karen (Larry), Darlene Rose, Lucille Hilda (Vince); 12 grandchildren Robert Raymond, Laura Noel; Sandra Marie; Aaron Joel, Jory Lee, Christopher Michael; Jason Kane, Jade Dylan; Travis Wesley, Stacey Rose; Troy Jacob, Kiri Dawn; 17 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren; sister Rosina Heidrick (Kelowna); as well as many nieces, nephews, family and friends.
Eva is predeceased by her husband Marcel Norman Brule (2006), her son Robert Gregory (deceased 1963), her daughter Wendy Laura (deceased 1985), her Grandson Julian Breck (deceased 2010), and siblings, Agnes Kerestesh (2001), Englena Sieben (2002), Maria Frank (2011), Martha Opperman (2011), Francis Frank (2017), and Catherine Krassman (2017).
In lieu of flowers, memorial tributes may be made directly to Olds & District Hospice Society. Due to COVID 19 restrictions, a private service will be held in the Spring/Summer of 2021.

I MADE IT HOME
I just want to let you know I made it home.
Everything is so pretty here, so white, so fresh so new. I wish that you could close your eyes so you could see it too.
Please try not to be sad for me. Try to understand, God is taking care of me...I'm in the shelter of his hands.
Here there is no sadness, and no sorrow, and no pain. Here there is no crying, and I'll never hurt again.
Here it is so peaceful, when all the angels sing. I really have to go for now....I've just got to try my wings.
P.S. ...I'll be the first face you see when you get here!
