Gardening was a big part of her summers; in winter she quilted, sewed, crocheted, knitted, embroidered and read.

She moved to Spruce Manor Special Care Home in March 2002. She had a kind, gentle spirit, loved unconditionally, was always there for her family, had an unwavering faith in God, prayed for her family and modelled Christ. Predeceased by Peter, 5 sisters and 7 brothers, she is mourned by daughter Dorothy Goetz and son Sam, both of Dalmeny; 6 grandchildren; 8 great-grandchildren; and 1 brother. The funeral was Apr. 23 in Dalmeny Community Church, with Gary Sawatzky and Alvin Penner ministering.
