EDNA ELEANOR CUMMER And so on Wednesday, April 2, 2014 we said goodbye to Edna Cummer....wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great- grandmother, sister, aunt, mentor and confident. A woman of great capacity, family historian and keeper of the lighthouse in the storm of life. Edna Eleanor Cummer was born the youngest of eight children to George Wiebe and Mary Derksen on October 25, 1926 in Morden, MB. She was married to Lloyd Westley Cummer on October 4, 1947. Dad predeceased Mom in 2005, and she leaves to mourn her children: Cheryl (Alex), Brenda, Donna (Rick), Randy (Pam), Jeff (Janet); grandchildren, Marlo, Curtis (Laura), Leanne (Kevin), Carrie (Scott), Chad (Kristy), Candace, Jared, Teigan (Peter), Jordan, Travis, Jennifer (Mark) and Katelyn; great-grandchildren: Skyler, Bree, Emma, Alexis, Tara, Braidon, Dylan, Tyler, Taylor, Cole, Copelyn, Jack, Nora, McCarthy; and great-great- grandchild: Alizaya. Mom had many interests in her life. She loved music, dancing, bowling, playing cards, scrabble and doing crosswords. Mom and Dad camped and travelled extensively, enjoying life to the fullest. She cherished the support of her family and friends. Her home was open to all. Mom's welcoming, nurturing spirit will be sorely missed. On Monday, April 7, 2014 Edna's Funeral Service will be held at 2:00 p.m. in Charleswood United Church, 4820 Roblin Boulevard at Dieppe Road with Rev. Michael Wilson presider. Honorary pallbearers will be Marlo Lytle, Leanne Mihalicz, Carrie Brown, Candace Ingram, Teigan Tsoukalas, Jennifer Laspa, Katelyn Cummer.
