MARY GROENING It is with heavy hearts that we share the sudden passing of our precious mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Mary Groening after a heart wrenching battle with dementia. Mom passed away on Sunday, January 10, 2010 at the age of 82, with her daughters by her side. Left to cherish her memory are her daughters; Linda (Tom), Merna, Debbie, Cindy (Terry) and Shelley (Jeff); grandchildren Jody, Jackie, Lyndsey, Kelly, Kelsey, Mandy, T.J., Scott, Andrea and Skylar; great-grandchildren Cassidy, Ainsley, Evan, Ryan and Emily. Mom will be lovingly remembered for her kind heartedness, cheerful sense of humour and devotion to her family along with her many friends whom she acquired while working in the hospitality business in Morden, MB. Her family would like to give special thanks to the staff at Fred Douglas Lodge, especially those who treated Mom with dignity, love and respect. The funeral service will be held, Saturday, January 16, 2010 at 1:00 p.m. at the Morden Sommerfeld Mennonite Church, 5 Parkwood St. Morden, MB.
