Sonia Erdell (Calderbank, Handley)
Sonia was born on July 28, 1955 in Edmonton, Alberta, she passed away peacefully in hospital in Edmonton on April.12, 2022.
Sonia was predeceased by both her parents, Helmut and Eva, and her brother Olaf. She is survived by her life partner, Allan , her daughter Tania , her son in law Chris and her two grandsons Tyler and Bryan.
Sonia was a vibrant spirit who said it as she saw it. She loved being outside and getting her hands in the dirt, listening to the birds and chatting with the critters. Her yard was her happy place.
Those we love remain with us
for love itself lives on,
and cherished memories never fade
because a loved one's gone.
Those we love can never be
more than a thought apart,
for as long as there is a memory,
they'll live on in the heart.
Rest easy Mom, until we meet again xoxoxoxo
My name is Rebecca Harke (nee Kowalski). I grew up in Old Strathcona with Sonia and Olaf.
I did not know that Sonia had passed a year ago. I am saddened because I really wanted to go and see her.
I had talked to her a couple of years ago.
I will always keep her in cherished my memories that I had spent with her.
