Mom worked many years cooking in various restaurants. After retirement, they moved to Denare Beach, Saskatchewan where she volunteered at the community centre. Mom loved to bake (not only for herself but for everyone else). Knitting, crocheting, picking berries, quilting, her flowers and cactuses were just a few of her passions. Mom also loved spending summers at the cabin in Beausejour.
Mom was also an avid bowler in her younger years. After moving to Selkirk in 2016, mom had made many more friends. Mom’s biggest love in life was to spend time with her family and friends, visiting and doing whatever she could for them. Mom also had a special place in her heart for her dogs Chichi and Candy.
In keeping with her wishes, cremation has taken place and a celebration of her life will be held on Tuesday, September 18, 2018 at 11:00 a.m. in the Gilbart Funeral Chapel in Selkirk, MB. Interment of her ashes will take place in the Prince Albert Memorial Gardens on Friday, September 28 at 11:00 a.m.
Donations can be made at the charity of your choice.
Mom, we will love and miss you always.
