ANN NICKEL (nee ANTYMIS) On June 2, 2002, Ann Nickel peacefully left this world to join her husband Herman. She was predeceased by her parents, Harry and Mary Antymis and by her brothers, John and Steve. Ann was born in 1914 in Brokenhead and she received her schooling in Thalberg, MB. She and Herman were married in 1936 and they settled on Home Street in Winnipeg, where they spent many happy years together. Ann worked in the Dental Clinic in the General Hospital and often helped Herman with his farm work. For 60 years the First Broadway Baptist Church was a central part of Anns life. She always had an interesting story to tell about her travels to different places. Anns sense of humour and interest in people made her a cherished part of gatherings with family and friends. Throughout her sickness she never lost her spirit and zest for living. Her passing is mourned by her sister Alice and husband Eddie; her two sisters-in-law, Pearl and Irene Antymis; many nieces and nephews; kind and loving friends, Maureen, Nicola, and Jean and caring friend Paul.
