On June 19, 2015, Heather Louise Raszewski passed away at the Misericordia Hospital at the age of 73 years, after a long battle with a multitude of health problems.

Always ready to help others, she was a dedicated educator and wonderful human being who has finally found her rest. Heather leaves behind her very loving husband, Andrew; sisters, Gyllian and Khadijah (Monica); as well as many cousins and innumerable friends.

Her selfless life and dedication earned her love and admiration from hundreds of students and their parents.

Heather taught for over 50 years in public and separate school systems in Edmonton and Dawson Creek as well as a girl’s private school in Switzerland.

She was predeceased by her mother, Marie Therese Davies; biological father, Tod Harris (who was killed by lightning when she was a baby); and her adoptive father, Stanley Reginald Davies.

At Heather’s request, there will be no service. A Celebration of her Life will take place at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society, #201, 9452-51 Avenue NW, Edmonton, AB, T6E 5A6.
