MILLICENT ELIZABETH DONNELLY It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of our beloved mother and grandmother on Sunday, June 27, 2004 at the Concordia Hospital. She was predeceased by her beloved husband W. Vern of 53 years; her parents, Henry and Dorothy; her devoted sister Audrey; and brother Stewart. She is survived by her sons, Richard, Brian (Kres), Lyle (Pat) and Paul-Sean; daughters, Marta (Jim) and Deirdre; brother Patrick; and sisters-in-law, Evelyn (Alec) and Iris; as well as her special granddaughter Asha Elizabeth; and many nieces and nephews. Born in Winnipeg, Millicent graduated from Kelvin High School and worked at Transcontinental Air until her marriage to Vern. They raised six children together where Millicent was Queen Bee of her family. She enjoyed gardening, reading current events, cooking, bike riding, Grand Beach, movies, ballet and debating issues. She was a big Blue Bomber fan and sports fan in general. She was wonderful to her neighbours and their children. Millicent was extremely active in Verns career, Air Crew associations and Masonic Lodge. But most importantly she was involved with her children and their lives. She kept involved and loved her time with her family until her passing. She will be deeply missed. We would like to thank the staff at Concordia Hospital and Dr. Jerry Drexler for their care. A memorial service will be held at 1:00 p.m., Friday, July 2 at Neil Bardal Inc., 984 Portage Ave., Aubrey Street entrance. Memorial donations may be made to the Royal Winnipeg Ballet, 380 Graham Ave., Winnipeg, MB R3C 4K2, or to a charity of your choice. NEIL BARDAL INC. 949-2200
