FLORENCE (SLY) MCKEE (nee MCSKIMMING) 1930 - 2008 It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and sister on Thursday, April 24, 2008. Florence was predeceased by her husband Raymond Sly (1990) and husband Bill McKee (1997); brothers Bill and Bob and sisters, Violet and Ruth. Left to cherish her memory are her sister Margaret Brust; children, Angela, Laura (Rob), Walt (Terry), Frank (Catherine), Mike (Chris), Trisha (Glen) and many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews and close friend Art. Florence was born October 22, 1930 in Winnipeg. She lived most of her life in the south end of the city where she was a long time member of the Royal Canadian Legion, South Osborne Branch 252 Ladies Auxiliary and the 65 Club. She was also a member of the Fort Gary United Church Ladies Auxiliary. Florence loved to spend time with family and friends, helping others, baking, knitting, and playing bingo. She will be remembered for her joyful sense of humour and missed by many whose lives she touched with her kind and gentle presence. A memorial service will be held on Wednesday, April 30 at 10:00 a.m. in Thomson In the Park Funeral Home, 1291 McGillivray Blvd. In lieu of flowers, a donation in memory of Florence may be made to CancerCare Manitoba.
