Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryDONNA ELLEN BOUTIN (ELLIOTT) It is with heavy hearts that the family wishes to announce the unexpected passing of our dear mother, life partner, sister, aunt and friend Donna, on November 22, 2015, at Concordia Hospital at the age of 60, with her family by her side. Donna was predeceased by her parents Helen and Don Elliott, and her sister Bonnie Kirwan. Donna will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by her life partner Peter LeFort, father of children Rolly Boutin, children Tanner Boutin (Lacey), Sheena Kerr (Darren), and her siblings Sharon McBain (Pudge), Elizabeth Birkett (Neil), Joanne Zdankovskis (John), Hope Elliott (Mike), Heather Rainville (Ron), Donald Elliott, "Big Brother" Hayes Kirwan (Betty), numerous nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. Donna was born in Sudbury, ON, on February 4, 1955 and was graced with the blessing of her first child (Tanner Boutin) in August of 1981 and second child (Sheena Kerr) in April of 1984. Donna had an unconditional love for her two children, she dedicated her life to caring and providing for them. If there was ever a need for anything she would have it. Donna filled the room with smiles wherever she went, didn't matter if it was at her work, at home, out for dinner, or at a social event, she would find a way to make us or anyone smile. Any excuse Mom could find to go for dinner or go shopping she was on it, she loved every minute she spent with her family and loved ones and would take every opportunity to spend any time she could with them. Mom had many passions in life including traveling with Peter, shopping, photography, and making collages. A poem to Mom...We thought of you today, but that is nothing new. We thought of you yesterday, and we will tomorrow too. We think of you in silence, and make no outward show. For what it means to lose you, only those who love you know. Remembering you is easy, we do it every day. It's the heartache of losing you, that will never go away. Please join the family for a celebration of Donna's life Saturday, November 28, 2015 at Glen Lawn Funeral Home, 455 Lagimodiere Blvd., Winnipeg, MB at 10:00 a.m. In lieu of flowers, the family would like donations to be made to the Manitoba Lung Association, 629 McDermot Ave., Winnipeg, MB R3A 1P6. Family and friends may sign a Book of Condolence at www.glenlawn.ca Glen Lawn Funeral Home 204-982-7550
