MURRAY GABER Peacefully on April 5, 2001 at the age of 92, our father Murray Gaber passed away with all his children by his side. He was predeceased by his wife Dorothy, and sister Goldie Nowensky. He leaves behind his children, Anita Lyons, Toby and Harry Shecter, Cookie and Earnie Shapera, Brian and Sharon Gaber; sisters, Dolly Winston, Sarah Koven; 14 grandchildren; 11 great-grandchildren. He will always be remembered as being a kind, gentle and generous man with a great sense of humour. His love and devotion to his children was unconditional. The family would like to express their deepest appreciation to his companion Leonid Balagur and the staff on the 2nd floor of the Sharon Home North. Pallbearers were his grandsons, Barry Shecter, Michael Gaber, Kevin Lyons and Josh Lyons, Michael Gill and his "Big Brother" Mel Hirt. His strength and spirit will live in our hearts forever. Donations in his memory may be made to The Dorothy and Murray Gaber Memorial Fund, at the Jewish Foundation of Manitoba (477-7525).
