JAYNE SUTHERLAND (nee ALIX) February 22, 1949 - September 24, 2003 With great sorrow we announce the sudden yet peaceful passing of Mary Jayne Sutherland on Wednesday, September 24, 2003. Jayne will be sadly missed by Garry, her beloved husband of 31 years; son Kristian; daughters, Kara and Becky and the joy of her life, grandson Brenden. Jayne was predeceased by her mother Babe Alix; father-in-law Einar and sister-in-law Sherry. She is survived by her father John "Red" Alix and his wife Kathy Alix. Also left to cherish Jaynes memory are her brothers, Terry Alix (Heather), John Alix (Nadia), Tom Alix (Lois) and her sister Tracy Johnson (Les) as well as mother-in-law Florence Sutherland; sisters-in-law, Elaine Robak (Sid), Carol Guy (Rob) and brothers-in-law, Brian Sutherland, Ken Sutherland (Diane) as well as numerous nieces and nephews. She will also be sadly missed by her aunts, Mary and Marg. Jayne was born in Kipling, SK, February 22, 1949. She moved to Winnipeg in 1955 where she lived until moving five years ago to her dream home in Woodlands, MB. Many people will remember Jayne as she spent countless hours volunteering at Beaumont School, Oak Park Lodge in Woodlands and as a driver for cancer victims. Jayne loved birds, gardening, cooking, crafts and reading but her greatest passion above all was the world of sports, both as a competitor and a fan. She spent many weekends camping and at the family farm in Eriksdale. We will miss Jaynes sense of humour and her contagious laughter. Funeral service will be held Monday, September 29 at 12:30 p.m. at Chapel Lawn Funeral Home, 4000 Portage Ave. Reception to follow. The family wishes to express sincere thanks to the palliative care unit and 3rd floor nurses and staff at the Grace General Hospital. We would also like to thank the CancerCare staff. Special thanks to Holly for her compassion. In lieu of flowers donations may be made in memory of Jayne to the Canadian Cancer Society. Chapel Lawn Funeral Home in care of arrangements, 885-9715.
