IRMA SCHAREIN On Friday, July 18, 2003, our beloved wife, mom and granny, Irma Scharein, aged 79 years, passed away peacefully at East Gate Lodge, Beausejour, MB. She will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by her husband of 59 years, William, daughters, Linda and David Sigurdson, and Carol and Gerald Smith; her grandchildren, Darren, Sheralyn and Kevin Sigurdson, Derek and Rikki Smith. She is also survived by her sister Martha Sonnenberg and her brothers, Albert (Grace) and August (Olga) Wagner; sister-in-law Anne Lach; brother-in-law Louis Scharein and many nieces, nephews and friends.
