Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryEVE JACQUELINE WIEBE (nee SCHMIDT) Eve Wiebe entered this world June 28, 1944 and left on her own terms Saturday, April 15, 2017, at University of Alberta Hospital in Edmonton, after a brief battle with leukemia. Eve was born in Waldheim, SK one of seven children. Her family then spent a year in Paraguay before settling where she grew up in Mitchell, MB. Eve was mother to three children - Jacquie, Darren and Jon. Tragically Darren died at the age of two and Eve never stopped thinking of him. The following quote was found in her effects: "Life is not about what you get, but what is taken from you. It's in the things we lose that we discover what we most treasure." Eve treasured family and friends, enjoyed travel and adventure and living life Big. She was a devoted Nana and she loved deeply, laughed often and had an enormously generous heart. She will be greatly missed. She was predeceased by parents Benjamin and Anna Schmidt, son Darren, sisters Ann Peters, Helen Klippenstein, Sarah Doerksen, and her brother George Schmidt. Left to cherish her memory are her sisters Mary (Jake) Koop and Tina (Jake) Friesen, her daughter Jacquie (Tom) Reynar, her son Jon, grandchildren Amanda and Tyler Reynar, Georgia and Tessa Wiebe, the Frost family, and numerous nieces, nephews and friends. A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, April 22 at 2:00 p.m. at the Fort Garry Mennonite Fellowship, 150 Bayridge Avenue, Winnipeg, MB. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or a charity of your choice. "If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever." (Winnie the Pooh) ICH LIEBE DICH

I'm so very shocked and sorry to hear of the passing of Jon's Mother Eve. While I only met her on a few brief occasions, she will not soon be forgotten. On our last trip to Winnipeg I had the pleasure of chatting with Eve about my upcoming trip to the Rockies. She was so generous with her time and knowledge, and shared with me stories of her adventures and love of travel. Listening to her was an inspiration and her insights added to what would become a trip of a lifetime for me and my two sons . All our love, thoughts and prayer. Know she is in a better place and that while it is goodbye for now, it is not so forever. Love you guys! - Posted by: Jeff Proppe and family (Friend) on: Apr 19, 2017
