Obituary for
Melinda Louise Brooker (Crumly)
Melinda was a loving wife to Todd, mother to Travis and grandmother to Travis’ children. She was a wonderful sister to us and was always there when we needed help. We all have wonderful memories of camping weekends, holidays and wedding get-togethers as a family. She loved all sports and was an active Roughrider fan and supporter. Melinda enjoyed gardening and flowers and only complained about weeding Mom’s large gardens. Melinda became an active farmer’s wife with Todd, surprising us all when she started driving the farm equipment. She was an avid golfer and enjoyed spending winters in the Palm Springs area with Todd, family and close friends. Melinda is predeceased by her first husband, Keith DeClercq; parents, Cora and Bill Crumly; stepfather, Ralph Measner; and brothers-in-law, Jack Slater and Jim DeClercq. Left to mourn Melinda are husband, Todd Brooker; son, Travis DeClercq (Nicole) and grandchildren, Dawson, Mersade, Aria, Jayden, McKenna and Cullen; her sisters, Glenna Slater and Janet (Larry) Maier and family; brothers, Murray (Vivian) Crumly and family, Darwin (Terry) Crumly and family and Ron (Jane) Crumly and family; Todd’s parents, Ed and Gayle Brooker and Keith’s mother, Rena DeClercq; sisters-in-law, Catherine (Dan) Mengel and family, Tanice (Brad) Daly and family, Gayle DeClercq and Bev (George) Oakes and family. She will also be missed by numerous nieces and nephews.
