Mom was a homemaker; she took great pride in her home and was a wonderful cook and baker. She was an avid golfer (in earlier years) and some of her happiest times were spent golfing with family and friends. We are forever grateful to Dr. Cram; to all the nurses and student nurse Kaitlynn at the Souris Hospital for their compassion and excellent care of our Mom and the kindness and support given to us as a family. Mom’s greatest gift was her faith. A Mass of Christian Burial was held at St. Augustine’s Roman Catholic Church on Thursday, September 28, 2017 with Fr. Kelly Wilson as Celebrant.
