LEONA (LEE) ANN MORRIS (formerly FLATH) It is with saddened hearts that we announce the passing of our mother, grandmother, sister, daughter and friend, Leona (Lee) on January 29, 2002 after a courageous battle with brain cancer at the age of 64. Lee was predeceased by her father Jack Morris. Lee will always be remembered by her daughters, Nina and very special son-in-law Gerry Christie, and children Jonathan, Gary and Shannon of Australia and Ottawa; Carolyn Flath and children Steven, Lisa, George and Dallas Cross all of Calgary, AB; sister Florence (Phil) Smith of Winnipeg; mother Caroline Morris of Erickson, MB; and many aunts, uncles and cousins. Lee was born in Rackham, MB on December 27, 1937. She was employed by North Insurance and Ryan Gateway Insurance. Lee enjoyed the adventure of travel and meeting people, with the recent trip of her dreams to Melbourne Australia to visit Nina and her family. She was incredibly proud of her children and grandchildrens accomplishments. Her grandchildren were her life. She never grew tired of talking or bragging about them. Her vibrant personality was infectious and enjoyed by those around her. She always had a positive outlook on all of lifes challenges. The courage, strength and faith she displayed in life were an inspiration to her family and friends. She will be remembered for the remarkable way in which she loved and lived her life - she smiled and danced through it. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, February 9 at 1:00 p.m. at Marantha Evangelical Free Church, 910 Sturgeon Rd.
