Mom was a devout Catholic who faithfully attended Christ the King Parish as long as she was able. She was very musically talented and loved to play her home organ. Mom was an excellent cook, enjoyed sewing and singing her favourite song Edelweiss in both English and German. Mom and Dad were very good parents and made every effort to provide a good life for their family.
Funeral Mass will be celebrated on Tuesday, January 7, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. at Christ the King Roman Catholic Church, 847 St. Mary's Road with Rev. Fr. Peter Genger presiding. Interment to follow at St. Mary's Roman Catholic Cemetery, 520 Osborne Street.
We would like to give a special thank you to the entire staff of The Convalescent Home of Winnipeg for the great care and respect Mom received during her time there. In particular Sherry, Betty, Bo, Karen, Justin, Rosalinda, Shawna, Sharon and Rebecca.
