SANDRA MARIE FRIESEN

Baby Sandra Marie Friesen of Steinbach, Manitoba was born on May 26,1965, in Winnipeg. Her arrival brought much joy and sunshine into our home. In the beginning of November, 1965, she spent 9 days in the Children's Hospital, Winnipeg where she underwent a series of tests to discover what caused the lack of muscle tone. The diagnosis revealed a weakening of the muscles and no medical help could be given her.

Her happy smile, her shiny watchful eyes, and her pure little hands were a constant source of inspiration to us. On January 15, she was admitted into Bethesda Hospital in Steinbach where she passed away at 3:00 p.m. on March 12, 1966. She reached an age of 9 months and 15 days. She leaves to mourn her parents, two brothers, many relatives and friends.

We do not sorrow as those without hope because we look forward to a reunion with our loved one in the presence of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

The sorrowing family, Abram and Selma Friesen, G1enn and Timothy
