Mom loved her family and lifelong friends. She enjoyed travelling to many places throughout North America and Europe. She had many hobbies, her favourite being china painting. Mom grew up on a farm in Rosser, MB until she entered nursing at the Grace Hospital. She graduated with the class of 55A. Most of her best friends were her nursing buddies. Mom loved to spend time with her family, camping, travelling and going for drives in the countryside. She loved the farm where her parents lived for many years. She liked music, dancing and was always up for a good time. We had many pool parties in the backyard. Mom and Dad were active in the Shrine Temple for many years. A special thank you to Mom's "Guardian Angel" Nenita. We will all miss her love, companionship and stories. Love you, Mom. Respecting Mom's wishes there will be no funeral service. Those we love don't go away, They walk beside us every day, Unseen, unheard, but always near, Still loved, still missed and very dear.
