AMELIA (COOKIE) ISENBERG It is with deep sadness that the family of Cookie Isenberg announces her passing in the early hours of September 25, 2005 at the Health Sciences Centre. Mom had endured much pain and hardship over the last number of years which escalated following the death of her beloved husband Morris, December 25, 2004. She leaves to mourn her daughter Shelley Pfeffer, daughter Shawnee Greenberg (Harvey), and son David Isenberg (Jean). She is also survived by her grandchildren, Daniel, Naomi, Aaron and Leah Pfeffer and Will Greenberg, as well as her sister Bea McCullough. She was predeceased by her husband Morris, son-in-law Harvey, son Bernie, brothers, Paul and John, brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Morris and Minnie Rachlis and mother-in-law Sonia Isenberg. Mom lived her life devoted to her husband, children and grandchildren. She gave of her love, time and all she could offer unselfishly and endlessly all her life. She and Dad met while they were stationed in the R.C.A.F. in Dauphin, MB. They married there on April 22, 1943 and shared 61 years of marriage. They raised their four children together and shared all life had to offer, first in the Patricia Court on Furby Street, then Garden City on Arrowwood, Watson and ultimately at Amber Meadow retirement centre in their last years. They valued the friendships they forged there and appreciated the kindness extended to them while living there. Funeral service will be held at the Chesed Shel Emes funeral chapel, 1023 Main St. on Tuesday, September 27. Please contact Chesed Shel Emes, 582-5088 for time of service. Pallbearers will be Daniel and Aaron Pfeffer, David Pfeffer, Harvey Greenberg, Al Feder and Bruce Granove. Flowers are gratefully declined and donations can be made to a charity of one's choice.
