SHIRLEY ANNE DIAKOWICH February 15, 1947 November 11, 2011 Peacefully after a brief illness we regret the passing of Shirley Anne Diakowich on Friday, November 11, 2011, at the Health Science Centre in Winnipeg at the age of 64 years. Left to forever cherish Shirley's memory is her beloved husband, Mike Diakowich, of 39 years of marriage; son, Mike Daniel Diakowich, and close family-friends, Chris Lobaton, Andrew Beach and Terry Watson; as well as all those that she loved, and those that loved her. Shirley was a kind-hearted woman, who fought selflessly to better the lives of her co- workers through her willingness to make positive changes in her work place. She spent countless hours working with the United Food and Commercial Workers Union local 832 to ensure these changes took place. Even during the times of her illness, Shirley always put her needs behind those of others, by always giving sound advice to all those in need. In compliance with Shirley's wishes there will no funeral service. A private interment will be held for her family. The family wishes to extend a special thanks to all who provided care at the Health Sciences Centre GA-4/ GD-5. In lieu of flowers, donations in Shirley's memory may be made to CancerCare Manitoba, 675 McDermot Avenue, Winnipeg, MB R3E 0V9.
