She spent her early years growing up in the North End. Her family eventually moved to West Kildonan, where she met the love of her life Dad; where they built the family home and raised their 6 children. <br /> <br />Mum loved spending time with her family, grandkids, spending time at the family cottage and especially baking; the cookie jar was never empty. <br /> <br />Our Mum was the matriarch of our family. We will miss our daily conversations with her, taking her out and most importantly Mum listening to us and her love she shared towards all of us. <br /> <br />Mass of Christian Burial will take place at St. Anthony of Padua Church, 250 Burrin Avenue on Monday, March 2, 2015 at 11:00am. <br /> <br />The family wishes to thank Winnipeg Paramedics, Seven Oaks Emergency, HSC, the staff at Seven Oaks Hospital 5th floor Unit 5 for their kindness and compassion.

We love you lots and will carry you in our hearts forever.&rdquo; <br /> <br />In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the charity of ones choice. <br /> <br /></div>
