With heavy hearts and great regret we announce the sudden passing of Edith Maureen Scriven (nee Bell) of Calgary, on Monday, April 19, 2010, surrounded by her family at the Foothills Medical Centre. Edith was born in Whitton, England, and immigrated to Canada as a young girl. She was the second of ten children born to Charles and Elizabeth Bell. She was raised on a farm near Kelliher, Saskatchewan and moved to Calgary around 1950. Edith had an abundant love of her family near and far.
