Born in Poplar Point Manitoba, Mom was raised in St. Eustache, MB. She moved to Winnipeg at a young age where she worked at various jobs, including Eaton's. She eventually found her niche and had a very satisfying career in long-term care. Mom married Dad (Ross) New Years Eve 1948, and they settled in the St. James area, where together, they raised four children. Mom was a homebody, and a loyal fan of Y and R. She always kept abreast of world news that included politics, sports, and current events. She loved spending time with family and having coffee with her buddies.

Angel of god, my guardian dear To whom God's love commits me here Ever this day be at my side To light and guard, to rule and guide.
