CORA KRALL
(NOORDMAN)
She leaves to mourn the love of her life, husband Greg Krall, and her pride and joy, daughter Carly Lowing (Jason Lowing). She also leaves behind her sister Diane (Tony Mansell), brother Dick (Jerri), brother Harry (Maureen), brother Jan, sister Trudy (Jamie Hagyard), brother David, sister Leesa Dahl (Warren), and many adoring nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.
Our beautiful Cora was born in Medemblik, The Netherlands on May 19, 1953. She immigrated to Canada in 1959 with her family, who settled on Kilbride Avenue in West Kildonan. Shortly after, as a teenager, she met Greg and thus began their 53-year journey of togetherness.
In 1977, Cora and Greg's only daughter, Carly, was born and the inseparable couple became a trio.
Her daughter Carly meant everything to Cora, a selfless, caring woman who lived simply and with great joy. She loved to garden, spend time with her family and take long rides on the back of their motorcycle. Cora was a unique individual who always spoke her mind. She proudly and regularly pulled off an eclectic sense of style and was never afraid to be herself.
Cora, you were the light of our lives;
life won't be the same without your
hilarious antics, your witty humour and
your beautiful smile.
A gathering for family and friends will be held at a later date.

I met Cora nearly fifty years ago when she started dated her forever love/ husband Greg. She was lovely, witty and fun loving. And yes she did “say it as it is” and yes she was never afraid to be herself. I admired that. Heart felt sadness for Greg and Carly - Posted by: Beverly (Friend) on: May 16, 2020
