The late Gladys Rose McDonald was born March 10, 1989 at Glasston, North Dakota, USA. Gladys, her mother, Melissa Littlejohn, who married Thomas Budd, moved to Winnipeg in 1909 when Gladys was nine-years-old. In Winnipeg she apprenticed to a seamstress, a skill which served well throughout the years. Gladys took her schooling in Winnipeg and Meadows, Manitoba, where they lived on a farm. Her older brothers traveled west to be followed later by Gladys, her mother and younger brother Russ. They took up a homestead north of Fielding. GladysGladys kept hose at different times for her brothers Albert and Herb. She taught young girls in the area how to play the piano. She married Gardner Alexander McDonald in 1914 and they moved to the homestead on S.E. 28-43-12 W3rd. Three years later they moved to N.W. 20-43-12 W3rd where they lived for 67 years before moving to River Heights Lodge in 1986. Gardner passed away in April 1986, Gladys was an intelligent capable woman who did everything well and with dedication. The Richard Remembers history book notes: "Mrs. McDonald has been active in Homemakers and W.I. at both the local and district levels. For years she has organized the local Red Cross canvass each spring and it is largely due to her efforts that the making of graves in the Richard Cemetery was accomplished Despite her age, she was one of the faithful to be counted on on cemetery cleanup day. In 1957, as district rep, she attended the national W.I. convention and Expo. In 1987 she was presented with a plaque by Richard W.I. for long and outstanding service; and in 1980 she was honored with the Pioneer Woman award during the province's 75th anniversary. Dedicated as she was to the organizations she served, her family was the center of her life. Her family was raised during the hard years with no frills or extras, but always with dignity and fairness. With her children grown and on their own, Gladys slipped into the role of grandmother with the aim of passingon some of qualities which she herself prized. We are grateful for her life with us and rejoice in her memory. Interment was in the City Cemetery, North Battleford. Arrangements were in care of Sallows and McDonald Funeral Home.
