Davidson, Lorne Alton. In loving memory of Lorne, who passed away peacefully Tuesday evening, May 17, 2016 after a short battle with cancer. The world has lost a super fine human being. Lorne was born in Loon Lake, Saskatchewan and received his education at Moosehead School, school in Tisdale and in St. Walburg. He had a childhood that, although maybe not rich monetarily, was rich in love. He was surrounded by numerous cousins his own age, as well as loving Aunts and Uncles. Lorne had a long and successful career in several retail businesses: Beaver Lumber, Sterling Distributers, Nelson Lumber in Lloydminster, as well as the Co-op in Colonsey and Wynyard. He also worked at McDonalds, Peavey Mart and most recently at Shoppers Drug Mart and as a Commissionaire. He was known as a salesperson who really cared about customers and treated them respectfully and in an efficient manner. Lorne loved sports, having played as an assistant captain and several years playing ball. He was an avid supporter of the Battlefords North Stars having spent time as a Board Member. Lorne loved people: wherever he went he met people he knew and made sure to stop and talk. He loved to travel and enjoyed going to Banff and Jasper to visit relatives and especially the winter trips. He loved to spend time in nature. The deck on his family’s home faced the Kinsmen Park and such wonders he could see- green green everywhere, squirrels, blue jays and robins. But most of all, Lorne loved family: the get together far and near. Lorne was a truly spiritual person, honest, respectful, giving thanks to a higher power daily and maintaining the healing power of AA. Lorne will be forever remembered by his wife of 27 years, Terri Davidson; step-son, Jordy Sealey and his children, Dylan and Dalton Hart; step-daughter, Jennifer Sealey; mother, Clara Davidson; sisters, Sandra Nyholt and her son, Lorne Nyholt and Karen (Gary) Weiler and their children, Graeme, Megan, Kent and Marie; mother-in-law, Helen Neisz; and his pets, Baillie and Patches. He was predeceased by his father, Robert Davidson; ex-wife, Teddy Bodnar; and infant son, Craig. A Celebration of his life was held on Saturday, May 21, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. in the Summer Hall at the Western Development Museum, North Battleford, Saskatchewan with Reverend Nora Borgeson officiating. Memorial donations in memory of Lorne may be made to Saskatchewan Hospital New Beginnings, Box 39, North Battleford, Saskatchewan, S9A 2X8 or a charity of your choice.
