Obituary of Melva Hossay

HOSSAY, Melva March 2, 1937 – July 20, 2025 It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Melva Hossay on Sunday, July 20, 2025 at the age of 88 years. She was endlessly proud of her family, always celebrating their accomplishments with heartfelt joy. She loved to bake, and her thoughtful gifts and cards—often given just because—made everyone feel special. A familiar sight around town in her beloved Ford Bronco, she was always on the hunt for gardening supplies or something useful for the home. Through every challenge life sent her way, she persevered with quiet strength and unwavering resilience. Her warmth, generosity, and determination left a lasting mark on all who knew her. Melva will be lovingly remembered by her daughter Pat (Ken) and their daughters Kendra (Brody) and their son Myles; Natasha (Shayne); grandson Joe (Michelle) and his son Riley and stepson Adam; along with numerous nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. Melva was predeceased by her husband Raymond; son Duncan; daughter-in-law Karen; parents Gladys and Ralph; brothers Allan and Ron; and sister Irene. A Liturgy of the Word will be held on Tuesday, July 29, 2025 at 10:30 a.m. at Autumn Rose Funeral Home with Fr. Chad Misiak as the Celebrant. Interment to follow in the Riverside Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Melva’s memory to the “Prairie Tails Animal Rescue Society”, a cause close to her heart.
