MARGARET VAN RYCKEGHEM It is with the greatest of sorrow that the family announces the passing of Margaret (Puznicki) Van Ryckeghem on October 30, 2002. Marge was born in her parents home in Winnipeg on November 20, 1926. She devoted her life to the care of her husband and family. She loved cooking and would always make different meals to suit the tastes of her family. Marge used to enjoy walking down the street to have coffee with her neighbours or would be busy trading contest entries with her other friend, Marguerite. She loved to play bingo with her many friends. Anyone who met her found themselves touched by the frankness and honesty that was a part of Marge. She regarded her dogs and cat as members of the family. She used to love working in the garden until her health no longer allowed her to. She loved to plant flowers in the spring and her roses depicted the care that she gave them. Marge was welcomed to her heavenly home by her husband, Frank, who passed away in January of this year. Left to cherish the memories of this unique woman are her daughters, Donna (Carl) Reitmeier, Della, Cindy Smith and sons, Ron (Evelyn) and Glenn. Her love and tenderness will always be kept alive in the hearts of her grandchildren, Jason, Amber-Dawn and Kelly Reitmeier, Nikolas and Keenan Smith and Lee and Bill Witwicki. She is survived by her two brothers, Stan and Bill Puznicki and many nieces and nephews. Funeral service celebrating Marges life will be held on Saturday, November 2 at 3:00 p.m. in the Holy Family Church located at 778 Archibald St. Interment to take place at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Marges memory to Holy Family Church. We little knew that morning that God Was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, In death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, You did not go alone; For part of us went with you, The day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, Your love is still our guide; And though we cannot see you, You are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, And nothing seems the same; But as God calls us, one by one, The Chain will link again. We love and miss you Mom/Nanny Arrangements have been entrusted to: EDWARD J.
