Glenna Grace Buckmaster

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Glenna Grace Buckmaster (née: Campbell), wife, mom, grammie, sister, aunt, daughter, and friend.  She passed away peacefully on Sunday, April 13th, 2025, in Moose Jaw, SK, at the age of 73 years.

Glenna was born in Moose Jaw on November 25th, 1951, to James (Jim) Stewart Campbell and Blanche Isabel Campbell (née: Pottruff).  She grew up on the family farm near Lake Valley, SK, with sister Bonnie Mullin.  

Glenna began dating Currie Buckmaster during high school and after graduating from Brownlee School, she moved to Regina, SK, becoming a dental assistant.  During her time in Regina, she lived with her cousin Betty Ann Pottruff.

On August 5th, 1972, Glenna married her lifelong love Currie and moved to Calgary, AB.  In 1973, they returned to the family farm and welcomed their daughter, Crystal Marie (1975) and son Grant David (1978), where they lived until 1992 before moving to Kelowna, BC.  While in Kelowna, Glenna delved into her love of interior decorating, and she decorated many homes.  

Glenna loved the family farm!  She and Currie returned there in 1998 and have remained until today.  While back at their home Glenna began working at Yvette Moore’s Art Gallery, where she used more of her design expertise. 

In 2001, Glenna and Currie’s beloved son Grant tragically passed away, and his laughter has been missed for decades.  

Currie and Glenna enjoyed many vacations over the years and especially loved their time in Puerto Vallarta, MX, where they spent time with good friends and family, and especially the summers they spent at Riverhurst, SK with special friends, Brian and Brenda Rosenau.  

Her daughter, Crystal (Grady), welcomed a son, Lauchlin (2010), and daughter, Naomi (2013).  Glenna’s grandchildren were a source of joy.  The kids are grateful to have made precious memories with their Grammie but mourn the loss of making more.

During the last years Glenna put up a most courageous fight against kidney disease.  She battled to the bitter end, never complaining, just doing everything requested of her.

While mom was here with us, she provided unconditional love to her family and friends.  She was a constant support to everyone she met.  Her hope and love will be everlasting.  We will miss her earthly presence immensely but know she is now in milele – the forever, a place of abundance and safety, with her beloved son Grant, her mom and dad, and all those who passed before her.

Glenna was laid to rest on Thursday, April 17th, 2025, in Rosedale Cemetery, Moose Jaw, SK.  A Funeral Service will be held at a later date at Moose Jaw Funeral Home.  In lieu of flowers, please consider becoming a Living Organ Donor, more information can be found here Living Organ Donation | SaskHealthAuthority.  Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane.  Michelle Ellis, Funeral Director 306-693-4550
