It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Orla Olive Craig, aged 88 years of Moose Jaw, SK, who passed away on Sunday, August 15th, 2021 surrounded in love. Orla was born to Sadie and Joe Haug in Mazenod, SK on January 27th, 1933. She married Doug Craig on August 5th, 1954. Orla loved being surrounded by her family, which reached beyond the immediate family. Everyone who came to Orla’s was family. She loved to garden, do crafts, play cards and cook. Everyone was welcome and was fed cookies by the pail, along with homemade soup.
