Colleen Klein has died.
Her daughter, Lisa Pinder, posted the news on social media late Tuesday afternoon.
Pinder says her mom was "forever the angel on my shoulder" and that Colleen and her late husband, former Calgary mayor and Alberta premier Ralph Klein "can rest easy together in eternity."
A family statement was released later on Tuesday.
"Colleen passed away peacefully after a brief period of failing health," the statement read, in part.
"Colleen's presence in our lives was a source of endless love and warmth. Her compassionate spirit and dedication to helping others were hallmarks of her character. Though she is no longer with us, Colleen's essence will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew her, leaving behind a legacy of love and cherished memories.
"She will be dearly missed but never forgotten."
