ANNE YACHISON July 14, 1925 - January 24, 2014 With sadness in our hearts, we announce the passing of our dear mother, grandmother, sister and aunt, Anne Yachison, at the age of 88. Anne was predeceased on January 19, 2014 by her husband Henry. She was also predeceased by their son David, as well as her first husband, Peter Pawulski, and her brothers Bill and Harold Skazyk. She leaves to cherish her memory her children, Donald (Diane), Jacqueline (Paul), Wayne (Donna), Dean (Josie), Gary (Lena), as well as her grandchildren Stephen, Kimberly and Don, Wayde (Leeann), Christopher and Sarah, Amber and Chad, Ashley, Kyle and Shelby, and great-grandchildren Owen and Paige. She also leaves behind two brothers, Peter (Francis) and Walter (Pinky) and sister-in-law Lil, as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Anne was truly devoted to her family. She grew up in Rossdale, Manitoba where she was a great help to her parents on the farm and helped look after her beloved brothers. Anne then moved to Winnipeg with her husband Peter and raised her first family while working for many years at Dayton's. She later moved on with Henry to Grand Pointe where she spent over 30 years and raised her second family with the same love and compassion. In their later years they moved back into the city. Her grandchildren loved to visit Grandma and have some of her delicious perogies and other wonderful foods. Grandma above all cherished her time with the grandchildren. We will always remember the great times, especially the wonderful Christmas Eves and other holidays she made so special for us. We will miss the laughter and companionship of our dear grandma, mother, sister and friend. Rest in Peace In lieu of flowers, donations in Anne's memory may be made to the CancerCare Manitoba Foundation. Cremation has taken place and a memorial service will be held on March 15, 2014 at 1:00 p.m. at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main Street in Winnipeg.
