It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Minnie on September 3, 2022 at the age of 86.

Minnie will be lovingly remembered by her daughters, Kathy (Randy), Valerie (George), grandchildren, Carly, Meagan, Alexia, sister Bernice, brother-in-law Peter (Jean), sister-in-law Nettie, cousin Dana (Bill) and extended family and friends.
Minnie was born in Libau, Manitoba and lived on the family farm until moving to Winnipeg. She worked for Eatons until she started a family with her husband John, who she was married to for 60 years. Later she worked part time at the MET, Kmart, MTC Theatre and Home Care.
Minnie was a long time member of St. Francis Church. There she met many of her friends and enjoyed socializing after each church service. She also belonged to many seniors groups where they would play bingo, cards, dance and go to casinos. Minnie enjoyed going on road trips and camping. She travelled to many states and provinces. She also loved to spend quality time with her family.

Condolences to the family, especially the grandchildren. Rachelle and I used to sit at the same table as Minnie and John at the Dufferin Seniors Centre's dances, along with Hilda and Valdemiro. We had the opportunity to witness Minnie's pride as she talked about her family. Thank you for the beautiful funeral we attended. - Posted by: Pierre Lemoine and Rachelle (Acquaintances) on: Sep 09, 2022

I first met Kathy and her family when I was 3 years old. Our fathers worked together. Kathy and I became closer friends when we met up again in school. I have very fond memories of "camping out" in the family trailer!! Minnie and John were always very welcoming. The Komish home on Burrin Ave. was always like another home to Kathy's friends. Be at peace knowing your mom and dad are together again. Take care> Sending you all our love. Vic, Kim, Cort, Dayna and Tim - Posted by: Vic and Kim Hucko (friends of the family) on: Sep 09, 2022
