Lucy Prentice

It is with great sadness that the family of Lucy Prentice announces her passing on March 21, 2018, at the age of 92.  Lucy was born on July 13, 1925, in Stalybridge, England.  She grew up in the Manchester (Ashton-under-Lyne) area and, after World War II, followed her war bride sister, May, to the Shackleton district in Saskatchewan.  She married Francis (Frank) Prentice on October 14, 1949.  Together they raised four children on the farm in the Abbey district before retiring and moving to Saskatoon in 1983.  Lucy is survived by her children William (Stéphane Côté), Pamela (Dr. Edgar) Yee, Jean (Cliff) Prpich, and Larry.  She also leaves to mourn her grandchildren, Adrienne (Jeremy) Banning, Andrea (Doug) Rogoschewsky, Christopher and Dr. Stephen Yee, and three great grandchildren, Jackson and Blake Banning and Peyton Rogoschewsky.  She is predeceased by her husband, Frank, and sisters, Ethel Fletcher, Marie Burns, and May Geisler.  A private family service will be held at a later date.
