The world lost a beloved mother and friend, Della Marie Schwengler, 75, of Lethbridge, Alberta entered Heaven's Gates June 15, 2021, with her family by her side.

The world lost a beloved mother and friend, Della Marie Schwengler, 75, of Lethbridge, Alberta entered Heaven's Gates June 15, 2021, with her family by her side.

She is survived by her children and grandchildren, who made up the entirety of her world.

Della was a dedicated mother first and foremost. She treasured her children and embraced every moment with them. She especially loved her role as Grandma. She had a vivacious personality and always made people around her laugh. Della loved spending her time in the kitchen and sewing beautiful clothing for her grandchildren.

Della was a fighter and she never stopped fighting.   Through her, we know what resilience and perseverance truly look like. There was no quit in Della. Just because she is no longer here, it doesn't mean she lost her fight. 

Your Hug Meant the World

Nobody else held me so tight

Or made me feel so right

No one's eyes shined so bright with love

As my mom, who is now high above. - Tamsen Butler

For those who have known Della in her fruitful journey with us, her graveside service will be live streamed on Monday, June 21 at 11:00 am.  Please check Cornerstone website for link to join the service at 11:00.

Tricia Oblander, June 21, 2021

Our prayers and condolences to all the children and grandchildren of our dear "Della". Thanks for sharing such an amazing and strong spirited angel. We've had so much to share throughout so many years, one thing never ever faltered, her love for all of you and how she spoke to share that love and joy. Know in your hearts as you carry each and every memory, when you miss her with tears or laughter, she will forever watch over her loved ones. She proudly beamed telling us about every one of you, and pictures to shared, as she said "her world, her joys, her reason to be"! You all in your own way kept her world filled with so much. Her radiant smile, her sparkle in her eyes, were always there without hesitation. She had a heart too big not to share with anyone that took the time to know her. Della was so much more than a friend, she was as are all of you, her family...a part of all our family as well. We forever cherish all she has been to us and the memories she leaves us with as our hearts are heavy in the loss you all bear. We are here if you need us...take care Larry & Lorna Stubel and families

My sympathy to Della's family. I often thought of Della, and remembered the fun times we had growing up together as children. I am sorry to have lost touch with her. It is always sad when we procrastinate about reaching out and then there is no longer opportunity to do so. I believe Della will be at peace in heaven and be reunited with her sister Caroline who will welcome her and comfort her. Blessings to all the family.
