MARILYN ELAINE ZIMBERG It is with deep sorrow that we announce the peaceful passing of Marilyn Elaine Zimberg (nee Birse) on July 7, 2017. Marilyn is survived by Harvey, her devoted husband of 37 years, her mother Gladys Birse, her sisters Irene and Dianne, sister-in-law Rochelle, three nephews, many cousins and friends. She spent all of her working life in the insurance business, with the most years at Federated Insurance of Canada where she made many lifelong friends. In retirement, Marilyn became an avid genealogist. She corresponded with people across Canada and the USA. She travelled to many locations collecting photos of headstones, homesteads and meeting many relatives of the Murray/Weaver side of her family. Marilyn was an avid golfer, first at Bel Acres Golf Club and then later at Charleswood Golf Club. She spent the last dozen years travelling to Texas to play golf. She was also a avid curler until she started her annual Texas trips. Funeral services will be held on Thursday, July 13 at 10:00 a.m. at Chapel Lawn Funeral Home with a reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to CancerCare Manitoba, Winnipeg Humane Society, or a charity of your choice.
