BARBARA MARY WRAY (nee MAHER) With great sadness we announce the passing of Barbara Mary Wray (nee Maher), on November 30, 2002. She was born on Archibald Street on December 3, 1920, and was a lifelong resident of Winnipeg. Bobby worked at Canada Packers starting on her birthday in 1937, and it was there she met her husband Len Wray. They married in 1946, and she became a homemaker while her kids were growing up. Bobby returned to working life at Salisbury House at Deacons Corner, where she became manager for 12 years, retiring in 1981. She enjoyed the company of all her friends but her greatest pride and joy was her family. Bobby was predeceased by Len in 1997 and leaves to mourn her daughter Barbara Kappedal of Los Angeles and her son Dennis and daughter-in-law Barbara of Winnipeg. Special thanks to Armand and Shirley Berard for their caring and support during Moms illness, and their friendship always. The family also wishes to thank the staff of 5 North and the ICU at the Grace Hospital for the care and attention they provided to our mother. If friends so desire, a donation in Barbaras memory can be made to the Grace Hospital Foundation, 300 Booth Dr., Winnipeg, MB R3J 3M7. Cremation has taken place and a service celebrating Barbaras life will be held on Monday, December 23 at 2:00 p.m. at Green Acres with Rev. Don McIntyre officiating.
