ANNA DYCK (nee THIESSEN) 1918 - 2005 On January 19, 2005 Anna went away to be with her Lord and Saviour. She is now at peace in God's care. Anna was born in Chortitza, Ukraine. She married Abram in 1938, and they had 57 years together. In 1943, they were evacuated to Germany with the exception of Lydia, her younger sister, who vanished during the war. Through the generosity of Sara Dyck and her family, Canada became her homeland in 1950. Anna is survived by two sons, Henry (Bernice) and Peter (Alice), seven grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. Anna will also be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by relatives, friends, and all whose lives she touched. She was predeceased by her husband Abram in 1996; their great-grandchild Teneyle; sister Maria and parents Heinrich and Helene Thiessen. The family will be forever grateful to all the relatives and friends who visited Mom during her illness. Special thanks to Lilli for the loving care and compassion she showed. A celebration of Mom's life will be held on Tuesday, January 25 at 1:00 p.m. in Klassen Funeral Home, with Pastor Gerhard Friesen officiating. Interment will follow in Glen Eden Memorial Gardens. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Anna's memory to the Mennonite Central Committee, 134 Plaza Dr., Winnipeg, MB R3T 5K9. KLASSEN FUNERAL HOME 1897 Henderson - North of McIvor - 338-0331
