FRANCES LORRAINE BERCH With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Frances Lorraine Berch on Wednesday, June 21, 2000 at the Seven Oaks Hospital, at the age of 68 years. Frances will be lovingly remembered by her devoted husband Joe of 43 years; son Kelly (Tracy) son Gerry; and daughter Patsy (Trevor) Peters; grandchildren, Nolan, Jessica, Derek and Krystal; sisters, Irene Peckover, Wilma Sandulak, Velma Pott; and sister-in-law Mary Berch. Predeceased by her parents, Bill and Louisa Roth; and sister Jean Pott. Frances touched the lives of many in a very special way - whether they were family members, friends or strangers. She will be especially remembered for her fascinating sense of humour and her "chin up" attitude. She was Joes "bluebird of happiness". Fran was born and raised on a farm in the Carman area. She raised her family in the Winnipeg area and in later years spent her summer months at her Lake of the Woods home and winter months with her many friends in Mesa, Arizona. A celebration of Frans life will be held in the chapel of Glen Eden Funeral Home, 4477 Main St., on Saturday, June 24 at 3:00 p.m. A gathering of family and friends will follow in the Glen Eden Reception Centre. Flowers are gratefully declined. Donations in Frans memory may be made to CancerCare Manitoba, 100 Olivia St., Winnipeg, MB R3E 9Z9. A special thank you to the nursing staff of 5 Unit 4 of the Seven Oaks Hospital for their unsurpassed care and compassion. Arrangements entrusted to: GLEN EDEN FUNERAL HOME 4477 MAIN STREET 338-7111
