MARY HELEN (UNGER) HIEBERT
Mary Hiebert, 85 years of age, passed away peacefully just before dawn on Wednesday, April 27, 2022, at the Grace Hospice in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It is a comfort to know she is in her heavenly home.
Mary is survived by her son Gerald Hiebert, and two daughters, Leona Hiebert and Miranda Sesak. She also leaves behind six grandchildren, Landon, Travis, Alyssa, Meaghan, Mason, and Amber, one great-granddaughter Claire, and two sisters, Lilly Wiebe and Sylvia Unger.
Born in Neu-Kronstal (Plum Coulee), Manitoba on November 6, 1936, Mary was a loving and kind person whose contagious, quiet smile and sense of humour drew many friendships throughout her lifetime. She was a skilled quilter, sewer, choir singer, violin player, cook, and gardener. Mary adored her grandchildren and will be lovingly remembered and deeply missed by her family and friends.
Funeral services will be held on Tuesday, May 3, 2022 at Sterling Mennonite Church, 1008 Dakota Street, Winnipeg. Viewing begins at 10:00 a.m., followed by the service at 11:00 a.m. A light lunch will be served after the service followed by burial at Sage Creek Cemetery.

My condolences, Leona, on the loss of your dear mother. You and I were living parallel lives with our parents for a while, and I'm so sorry your story ended the way it did. My very deepest sympathies to you and your family at this time. - Posted by: Lois (Friend of Michael Thompson) on: Apr 30, 2022

I was fortunate to be friends with her daughter for many years and during that friendship I had the good fortune to spend time with Mary. She always laughed a lot and we found a common sense of humour. It was a pleasure to visit her any time and to have a good ear to listen in on her storytelling. She is missed and will always be in our thoughts. - Posted by: Michael Thompson (Family friend) on: Apr 30, 2022

My sincere condolences. I remember your Mom just as you describe her. She was such a willing help when I was researching the Prairie Grove history. May your good memories of her bring you comfort. - Posted by: Diane Heather (Friend) on: Apr 30, 2022
