Blanche married John Semple on July 20, 1940 and moved to the Craven District, SK where they raised a family of six children. She loved farm life where she could enjoy all of the wonders of nature. She especially enjoyed walks to the valley where she could enjoy the wild flowers, trees, and animals. Blanche made a lot of sacrifices for our family of eight. Although she had no conveniences like running water or electricity, she never complained. She was always positive and always thinking of others. Twenty-one years after Blanche's first husband John passed away, she married Marshall Anderson and moved to Raymore. She loved the Raymore community, her new found friends, and especially the Anderson family. After Marshall's passing, she moved into the Marian Chateau in Regina where she lived until she moved into the Precious Memories Special Care Home. Among her many friends were the members of the Piapot First Nations and the various church groups to which she was a member.
