MARY WOYCHUK May 23, 1911 - November 8, 2015 After a very fruitful life, in her 104th year, auntie peacefully passed into the arms of our Lord and the heavenly kingdom. She fulfilled her desire by leaving from her own little castle! She lived a very simple, humble, pure and religious life, however, she was constantly in touch with all current affairs globally, she even voted in the last election. For many years she worked as a housekeeper for many families, which she enjoyed in Winnipeg. She was in her 65th year when she returned to Arborg to care for her aging parents. She performed this duty with dignity, patience and loyalty. She loved to bake, make jam and cook until very recently. Apple pie was her specialty. She loved all animals small to large, had a passion for birds and the return of the robin. She had pets, cats, her dog Butch, also birds. She was very much a lady, kind, gentle, humble and very vain about her appearance. She loved her hats and jewellery. She was predeceased by her parents Max and Dora Woychuk; her special friend John and nephews Ernie, Bob and Edward Woychuk. She survived all of her siblings, John (Anne), Mike (Jean), Nick, and Bill (Mary) Woychuk. She is survived by many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and nephews and many great-great-nieces and nephews. She knew most of them and loved them all equally. Keep praying for us, we know your prayers have been answered. Funeral Services will be held on Monday, November 16 at the Arborg Christian Fellowship Church at 11:00 a.m. with a viewing to be held prior to the service. Interment will follow at the Skylake Cemetery with reception following at the church. Pastor Clem and Jim Woychuk officiating.
