MYRNA FLORENCE RHODES (nee ZANDER) Peacefully, after a lengthy battle with cancer, Myrna, surrounded by her family, passed away on Saturday, October 22, 2016 in Grace Hospice at the age of 71 years. Myrna will always be remembered as the beloved wife of Brett, for 48 years of marriage; dear mother of Jon, Murray, Gary, Krista Stoll (Jurgen), Joel (Lisa) and Ben (Kim); as well as adored grandmother of Trista, Cody, Kara, Grace and Jordan. Myrna is also survived by her brother Gary Zander (Kamloops, BC); and sisters Linda Middleton (Kelowna, BC) and Sheryl Zander (Kelowna, BC). She was predeceased by her parents Gus and Edna Zander. On May 30, 1945 Myrna was born in Wynyard, Saskatchewan. She was raised in the Northwest Ontario towns of Geraldton and Manitouwadge. Myrna and Brett were married in 1968 and together raised their six children in Northwest Ontario towns before moving, in 1995, to Winnipeg. In addition to being a devoted wife and mother, Myrna also stayed true in her dedication to her God Jehovah. While in Winnipeg, Myrna's love for her Creator motivated her to spend several years in full time service, helping many others acquire accurate knowledge of God and his purpose for mankind. She found great comfort in God's promise to resurrect those who have fallen asleep in death to a paradise earth, free of pain, suffering and death. John 5:28,29; Rev 21:3,4 Myrna's Funeral Service will be held on Friday, October 28 at 2:00 p.m. in the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, 325 Wallasey Street, Winnipeg.
