She was predeceased by her mother Augusta (Minnie) Pippus (nee Klinck); her father Jacob Pippus; her brother Robert; her husband Mack; and a son Richard. She is survived by her three sons, Robert (Valerie), Mark (Linda), James; six grandchildren, Larissa and Jonathan Roberton of Calgary; Christine Roberton of Calgary and Scott Roberton of Matlock, Manitoba; and Lisa and Cameron Roberton of Winnipeg.
