In Loving Memory of Abel Anderson

October 1, 1976 - January 18, 1991

Abel Anderson, a cherished member of the Cree Nation and a beacon of youthful spirit, tragically passed away on January 18, 1991, at the tender age of 14, due to a heartrending hammock asphyxiation accident at his home. Born on October 1, 1976, in North Battleford, Saskatchewan, Abel was the beloved son of June and Jim Anderson and a dear brother to Jay and Mairi.

A bright light in the lives of those who knew him, Abel's presence was a source of joy and inspiration. He was an esteemed alumnus of Huron Church Camp and served diligently at St. Luke's Anglican Church. His dedication and warm spirit left an indelible mark on his community.

Abel was deeply loved and admired by his family, friends, and his teachers at William G. Davis school. His untimely departure has left a void in the hearts of many, including his aunts, uncles, and cousins, who will forever cherish his memory.

A student of William G. Davis public school, Abel was known for his quiet, sensitive nature and his love for the James Bond movies, often affectionately referred to as '007' by his principal, Tom Mitchell. His tragic loss was deeply felt by the school community, prompting the introduction of grief counseling for his classmates.

A funeral service was held on January 22, 1991, at St. John's Anglican Church in Cambridge, with Rev. Gerry Mueller, Rev. Don Ford, and Rev. Trudy Lebans officiating. Abel was laid to rest at Parklawn Cemetery, leaving behind a legacy of kindness and gentle strength.

In lieu of flowers, the family requested memorial donations to the Canadian Wildlife Federation, a testament to Abel's love for nature and wildlife.

Abel's life, though brief, was a testament to the beauty of youth and the impact one can have on their community. His memory will continue to inspire and be a guiding light for all who knew him. Rest in peace, Abel.
