Date of Passing: Mar 30, 2020
Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or Memory
SUSAN DIRKS
(nee WIEBE)
She was born in Winkler, Manitoba in 1929 and later moved to a farm northwest of Elm Creek in 1946. As luck would have it, her soon-to-be husband Walter lived on a farm one mile away. They went on their first date that year, and it bloomed into a loving and successful 67-year marriage.
Left with cherished memories are Susan's sons, Derek (Shari) and Patrick (Karen); her grandchildren, Isaac, Lily, Riley, Emily and Melissa and her siblings, Marge and Allan.
A Celebration of Life will be organized for a later date.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to your local food bank.
Special thanks to the staff at both the Rosewood and Simkin Centre for going above and beyond to care for Susan.

I met Susan only twice as we moved our stepmother in to care at the Rosewood. I was instantly drawn to her kind energy and was fortunate to have a visit. My condolences to her family. - Posted by: Judy Hill (Brief acquaintance) on: Apr 04, 2020
