Linda was born on April 7, 1946 in Winnipeg, Manitoba and spent most of her life here. Remaining to forever cherish her memory are her husband Eugene Walter Sonny ; sons, Kelly (Sue), Ernie Brad ; daughter Sandra (Paul); grandchildren, Keila, Shaylene and Sara; siblings, Reggie, Judy (Larry), Randy (Cheryl), Lauren, Allan, Gary; mother Edna; aunt Elsie; brothers-in-law, Anthony, John (Colleen), William (Darlene), Ryan (Barb); mother-in-law Molly; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. She was predeceased by her father Norman; sister Tanis; father-in-law Walter and sister-in-law Georgina. Linda struggled with Crohn's disease for many years with great courage and dignity. Cremation has taken place, interment will be at a later date in Winnipeg, Manitoba. On behalf of our entire family, we would like to give a heartfelt thank you to the staff of St. Boniface Hospital for the many years of care. Mere words cannot express our gratitude and appreciation. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of Canada. Mama Liked The Roses She was the heart of our family, the glue that kept it all together Always putting others first, no matter what she may have been going through at the time A glowing smile, infectious laugh and personality that left a lasting impression on everyone Our rock, our pillar of strength, someone who kept a steady keel through all the ebbs and flows of life Always trying and doing her best through her optimistic will and spirit she was uplifting and an inspiration to us all Knowing she was always there, left us with a sense of security like the warmest blanket you covered us with, Mom, at night Absolutely irreplaceable leaving a void too big within our hearts But through everything you represented Mom...Love, Strength, Hope, Honor and Grace we will find a way to go on in your honor as we know you would have wanted us to No more suffering Mom, no more pain God knew that you went through enough it was your time and brought you home Right now you're getting things ready for us all preparing the greatest dinner...waiting patiently, till we're together again You know we love you Mom with all our hearts, while on earth you will be incredibly missed but we take comfort in knowing you're watching over and with us always
