A private graveside interment service was held November 15 at Chapel Lawn Memorial Gardens where Mom was laid to rest next to her dear husband Fred. Many thanks to Rev. Gordon Shields who presided. Eda was born in Winnipeg and raised near Elm Creek and in Winnipeg. She married Fred Sr. and had one child Fred Jr. Eda was a devoted wife, loving mother, mother-in-law and a caring friend.
