he annual Valley SnowHawks Poker Derby held

Saturday, January 23rd turned into an unpleasant
experience for two men who ended up being rushed to
hospital after losing control of their sleds on part of the
trail.
At press time, both males are listed in stable condition, one at the Health Sciences Centre in Winnipeg
and the other at the Brandon Health Centre.
The incident occurred just before 1:30 p.m. after
the last check stop on the ride. It seems there was a
drainage ditch that was hard to see in the dull light of
that day. This ditch was not there last year. Both adult
males are very experienced, seasoned riders and have
been sledding together for over 25 years without any
previous incidents. Mervin Farough, his wife Millie
and daughter Lynsi were riding behind the two men
and were first on scene. Mervin called 911 at 1:29 p.m.
while Millie and Lynsi tended to the riders until the ambulance arrived.
It is very unfortunate that this happened during a
sport that we all enjoy very much, it is a horrible thing to
hear of any snowmobiler being hurt at anytime, commented Valley Snow Hawks President, Scott Collen,
Hopefully these two gentlemen both will be alright
and our thoughts are with them and their families.
The volunteer members of the Valley Snow Hawks
strive to make snowmobiling a fun and safe sport for
all. This years poker derby saw over 200 riders participating and through such events as this derby, the Snow
Hawks have given back tens of thousands of dollars
over the years to various projects in and around the
community.
Hopefully, the two injured riders will have a speedy
and full recovery.

Blowing snow early Wednesday morning made for some treacherous driving conditions.
The truck pictured above met an unfortunate c ollision with a Town of Minnedosa loader near the
Bison Park on PR # 262 (the Beach Road). Also that morning, Minnedosa emergency crews were
called to a two-vehicle collision on Highway #10 southwest of Minnedosa on the curve near Bayes
Alpacha Ranch. Fortunately all involved in these incidents walked away without major injuries.
Blowing snow, poor visibility and slippery road conditions are being blamed for both incidents.

Rivers Edge Moving Forward
Health Foundation
Purchases Dispensing Carts
By JEFF PEARSON
n 2012, the Town of

Minnedosa gave written approval to develop
an under-utilized area
of land west of Tanners
Crossing School, north of
the river. Once complete,
Rivers Edge Recreation
Park will be available to
residents and visitors of
all ages to enjoy at no cost,
with a goal of encouraging
a healthy, active lifestyle
on a year-round basis
while creating positive experiences with more community appeal.
The plan is to develop
the park in four phases
and Paul Laliberte, President of the development
committee, said we estimate all phases will be
complete by 2019. Since
February 2012, a group
of volunteer committee
members has contributed over 1300 hours of
time and raised $132,000
through sponsorships, local and provincial grants,
and local fundraisers
such as the duck drop
raffl e. Phase One, which
includes a walking trail,
bike park, picnic area and
parking lot, has been completed and Phase Two,

Minnedosas first off -leash

dog park, is well underway. The grand opening
of the bike park was held
in September of 2014 and
a grand opening for the
walking trail, picnic area
and dog park are expected
in 2016.
Currently the Rivers
Edge committee is actively fundraising for Phase
Three, a 9-hole Disc Golf
Course, and already has
sponsors for seven of the
nine holes. We are still
looking for a major naming rights sponsor for
this Phase of the project,
worth $7,500, Paul said,
and hole sponsors are
valued at $350. Signage
0LQQHGRVD3HUIRUPLQJ$UWV&RPPLWWHHSUHVHQWV
will be present at each of

the nine tee boxes displaying the individual hole
sponsors as well as a map
of the hole, and the targets
will feature the course
sponsor prominently displayed along with the hole
number. The skateboard
park is the final phase
and fundraising will begin
after Phase Three is complete.
Customizable sponsorship packages are
available in various dollar amounts, as well as
general donations and in
memory of donations.
Also all park donors and
sponsors will be displayed
on their web site, unless
directed otherwise. If you
would like any more information on this project you

As the meeting progressed people were looking for solutions for the barriers Minnedosa faces.
A comment was made
that there are still homes
available for rent at West
View Estates, although they
are only three bedroom
homes which would be too
small for the large refugee
families which have five
or six children with some
families as large as 11 or 12.
However, the basements at
West View Estates are undeveloped so there is potential to add more rooms
if needed. One of the other
major issues smaller communities face is isolation
for the sponsored family as
most do not speak or read
any English. It is suggested
to try and bring a minimum of two families for
companionship and they
should be close to a larger
centre for their Islamic
faith worship. Many in the
forum suggested that we
are close to Brandon so it
would just be a matter of
transportation. Employment however, is the largest obstacle to overcome in

would need to commit to
hiring the employable parents before the application
for sponsorship would be

DARRYL A.HOLYK - PUBLISHER AND EDITOR
Did I Miss
Something?
Dear Editor,
n
December
31st,
Minnedosa experienced
a potentially devastating incident. Police tactical squads,
tear gas deployment and who
knows what other police activities. We were informed in
the January 22nd issue of this
publication of the plight of
Kyla, Ryan and their two sons
who as a result of this incident
three weeks earlier, were left
without a home, clothes, and
food because of the incident.
No fault of their own.
Now I do not live in
Minnedosa, but do consider
Minnedosa My Town and
myself a member (possibly
insignifi cant) of this community. My wife and I were eating dinner in town that night
and apparently left just minutes before everything went
to heck in a hand basket. We
probably do 90% or more of
our shopping in Minnedosa.
My question is, Where was
my town for Kyla and Ryan
when help was needed?
Congratulations to
the staff and owners of the
Minnedosa Inn for stepping
up to the plate in their time
of need. But where was everybody else? I saw no indication
in this paper, the post office
or shop windows of any effort
by the town to come to this
couples aid. In fact, I did not
know they existed till January
22nd when I read my newspaper. Where were donations of
clothes, furniture, food, money and other necessities of life
Letters to
the Editor
in Manitoba in January? Every week there is a column in
this paper emphasizing how
this town must pull together
to grow and prosper. Did this
town pull together in any significant way to help this family? As a person who would
gladly donate to a town wide
fund I have seen nothing. I do
not frequent the Minnedosa
Inn and from the article I
presume they had some sort
of program, but how was I to
know? But still the overriding
question is did this community fail Kyla and Ryan?
I have heard comments
on the visual lack of support
suggesting possibly it is because they arent from here
or no one knows them as
reasons why there was not a
huge outpouring of support. If
a family is only of value to this
community if they were born
and bred here, as the expression goes Houston We have
a problem!
I hope I am wrong and
people will write in and say
how their club or church donated clothes, furniture and
other needed belongings. But
so far, based on the article
it looks like this community
failed this family.

Dont Fear The Voter

CANADIAN TAXPAYERS FEDERATION
anitobas civil service is clearly worried.

A no-layoff clause is the most prominent
provision in a tentative deal between the Manitoba government and the 14,000 members of
the Manitoba Government Employees Union.
The deal is clearly meant to put minds at rest regardless of the next elections outcome. But it is
not the result of the next election that should be
keeping civil servants awake at night. The mathematical reality of Manitobas financial situation
should be much more concerning. And theres
reason for hope: hard work now can avert eventual disaster.
First, lets usher the partisan boogeyman out
of the debate. Alberta Premier Ralph Klein and
Ontario Premier Mike Harris are the names often associated with budget trimming. And yes,
they were both Conservatives. But they were not
the only ones who made difficult budgetary decisions. As finance minister, Paul Martin tackled
a spiraling defi cit and soaring debt by making
deep cuts. He reduced government spending
by more than $25 billion and shrank the federal
civil service by 45,000 positions. And he was a
Liberal.
Saskatchewan Premier Roy Romanow is
an even more striking example. From 1982 to
1991, Saskatchewans provincial debt went from
zero to nearly $15 billion. Bond rating agencies
knocked its credit rating down to BBB which
meant there was a significant risk that the province couldnt pay its bills. Romanow cut spending to the point that he closed 1,200 hospital
beds. And, of course, he was a New Democrat.
Political philosophy of Martin and Romanow ultimately mattered little they had to
cut spending or risk financial ruin. Math is absolutely unpartisan.
This has important implications for Mani-
toba. The provinces fi nancial trajectory is well

known and its not good. The government is
spending half a billion dollars more than it has.
Its debt is nearly $36 billion. Interest payments
on the debt will total $842 million this year.
Moodys, an international bond rating agency,
recently downgraded Manitobas credit rating.
If Manitoba continues on its current path,
cuts will come regardless of which party is in
power. Whether its a Conservative like Mike
Harris or a New Democrat like Roy Romanow,
financial necessity will negate partisan philosophy. A no-layoff clause that provides false security today could force deep cuts in the future.
This is not, however, a reason for civil servants or anyone else to panic. Manitobas trajectory is bad, but its ultimate destination is not yet
determined. We have a choice.
According to the Frontier Centre, Manitoba
has one of Canadas largest bureaucracies. Its
fi nancial weight is simply unsustainable. But if
growth is curtailed through hiring freezes and
reductions are implemented through retirements and other gradual steps, the situation will
signifi cantly improve. Realistically, some job
losses will be unavoidable, but early action is
the best way to prevent a future blizzard of pink
slips.
The Progressive Conservatives and Liberals have both called for the government to get
its budget under control, while the NDP has
promised to keep its foot on the gas with spending. Voters will make an important choice in the
coming election. But the result of that choice
should not be the primary concern for Manitobas civil servants.
Its the math that should worry Manitobas
civil servants either Manitoba will gradually
shrink its government to an affordable size now
or the harsh economic realities of soaring interest costs will impose much deeper cuts in the fu-

It Starts At Home
Living in

EDO, Minnedosa & Area CDC
f we were to talk about

the importance of values, I think that we could
all safely identify that
the importance of this is
rooted in the home. This
is where your character is forged and nobody
will understate the importance of strong family
roots to build their foundation as an individual.
So, the conversation takes
an awkward turn when we
start to steer away from
personal values, character
and worth to look about
businesses that are based
in the home.
Home-based
businesses are becoming a
larger part of our local
economy than they ever
have before. Owing in
part to the growth of the
internet and online commerce, it is now becoming
more and more practical
for entrepreneurs to operate out of their own home
and while we are warming
up to the idea, we must
also recognize that there
is still a negative stigma
attached to these businesses, as if a business lo-
cated in someones home

makes it less legitimate.
Lets consider this
for a moment. If you are
involved in a creative industry or professional
services which do not rely
on walk in traffic, does it
make sense to incur the
additional overhead to
lease a commercial space?
For those sole proprietorships, it actually makes
more business sense to reduce operating expenses
and to operate from your
home if its practical to
complete the work in doing so.
Perhaps it is because a
generation ago, any work
from home opportunities were usually viewed
as a sideline income,
marketed to enterprising
individuals as an opportunity to augment their
salaries through some
nature of product representation and sales racket.
However, that is evolving
and now the home-based
business makes up a significant percentage of our
local business community. Whats more, many of
Commerce is a first step

to help get you on the radar and ensure that you
are being represented
and promoted just like
any other area business.
Ensuring your business is
listed on the communitys
website business directory is another great step
to ensure that people who
would be your customers
can find you.
At the Minnedosa
CDC office, we recognize
and have worked with a
number of home-based
entrepreneurs. And were
here to help you as well to
launch a new idea or build
an existing business. This
is our home too, and your
success is the result that
we are most interested to
see.
Manitobas Valley Paradise is created by its people and we need to talk.

these businesses are not

sideline ventures, but instead are producing a sustainable primary income
for these merchants.
It is important that
when we, as a community are looking ahead to
what matters to our business community and the
opportunities for growth
that we also consider the
needs and ambitions of
our home-based businesses in the equation.
While the industry has determined that only three
to five percent of all home
based businesses expand
to a commercial storefront
environment, its important to acknowledge how
many home-based operations we are home to, and
recognize that these are
jobs that we have retained
in the community.
But those merchants
who are building their
business from the ground
up also have to take some
responsibility for engagement and promotion of their services and
products.

Grosbeaks. We had record Rocket science relies on

force of gravity, the orbits

of planets. Ecology, however, is extremely complex.
Lets take a look at EVGR,
as an example. EVGR are
our stay at home songster. They are one of the
few birds that make the aspen parkland their home
for their entire life. Thus,
given that they are so familiar to us, we should be
able to explain why they
are declining. Is it habitat
loss? Loss of food?
As I travel about, I
continue to see losses in
aspen forest as agriculture
expands into the edges of
the aspen parkland. Youd
have to think that would
hurt EVGR numbers. Others have suggested that
there has been a decline
in spruce budworm, a
valuable food source for
young grosbeaks in the
nest. Maybe this is a cause
for decline. More digging
was required. A quick look
at the regional Christmas
Bird Count data shows that
we arent the only ones
losing EVGR at bird feeders.
A second set of data,
the Breeding Bird Survey,
indicate that EVGR are
also less common on their
breeding grounds. So we
have a decline across the
board, but why? Maybe
this is a case of a natural
contraction. Interestingly,
at the fi rst round of European settlement, EVGR
began to spread across
North America in a southeasterly direction. They

were suddenly showing up
in places like Nova Scotia
and New York, where they
had never been recorded.
Something in the environment changed, and EVGR
took advantage of it. Now,
the current retraction in
their range might be simply be nature getting back
into equilibrium.
The story behind PIGR
might be a bit easier to explain. Like EVGR, PIGR
are one of the few bird species that make their home
in Manitoba year round.
Specifi cally, PIGR nest in
the boreal forest as far as
the treeline at Churchill.
Come October, they start
to show up around the
Park and area, often feeding on the fruit of snowberry. However, it appears
that they are now keying in
on bird feeders. I mean, if
you can get good food for
free, why not?
So, unlike EVGR,
which are showing major
declines, the increase in
the PIGR on the Christmas
count may be accounted
for by their urge to congregate in areas where we
can count them. Kind of
handy, if you ask me.

Recreation Report
By
LISA
BUCHANAN
he Rec Commission has been busy getting together

the 2016 budget and planning for the upcoming year.
Rec Hockey has starte d and has 23 eager hockey
players on the ice every Friday. Ty Burton and Ian Pinette
are the amazing volunteers that are on the ice with the
kids each week helping them all grow a strong love of the
game.
Every Monday and Wednesday evening more than 20
ladies are dancing their way to fitness at our Zumba classes.
Because of the generosity of the Roman Catholic Church we
are able to host our Preschool music classes every Wednesday. The teacher, Belinda, leads the kids in song and dance
to get both their brains and bodies moving.
The Rec Commission has offi cially taken over the
Healthy Active Minnedosa Teen Sponsorship program
after the committee decided to dissolve. If you are a teen
between the ages of 14 and 18 and would like financial
support to participate in physical activity, or know someone that is, come down to the Rec office and grab an application form. We will give up to $60.00 to an individual
for a sport/activity in Minnedosa for one person, such
as gym memberships, yoga, kayaking, swimming, karate, bowling, etc. We have also partnered again with the
Minnedosa Fitness Centre to offer a great deal for teens.
If the teen buys a month membership, the Rec Commission will put $60.00 towards the next two months membership and the Fitness Centre will add another month
for free! Thats a four month membership for the price of
one!
The Town guys have been busy clearing and fl ooding the ice ready for Skate the Lake in a few weeks and it
is now in good shape for skating. With the great weather
that we have experiencing skating on the lake is a fun option for lots of families to get outside and get active!
February 3rd is International Walk to School Day!
Walking to school in the morning can help kids focus
better, which can improve their grades, and walking to
school encourages independence as kids start planning
how to do it alone in the future. Its also a great time to
really talk to your kids in an intimate meaningful way. Or
you can make it a fun adventure using your imagination
and pretend to be astronauts, sea creatures, cowboys
or superheroes, theres no limit. Not everyone is able to
walk to school, so instead try including walks into your
lives in other ways; walk to the rink, walk to the park,
stroll around your backyard. Walking is one of the easiest ways to add physical activity into yours and your kids
day. We are experiencing great winter weather so there is
no excuse not to get outside and climb snow hills, make
new trails, build a snowman and have fun and make
memories in the fresh air.
We would like to hear your ideas! Please call the offi ce, drop in or email with any ideas that you have for
programs and activities that you would like to see in the
community.

Trees Removed to Prevent Fire Risk Around Clear Lake

SUBMITTED
ork in the Clear

Lake area has commenced to remove trees
planted on native grassland. At the same time,
the program will help protect homes, cottages, and
businesses from wildfire.
This is a long-term
project dating back to 1990
with the goal of reducing
wildfire risk to Wasagaming, with 25 hectares remaining still to be managed. The white spruce
plantations were originally planted on native
grasslands between 1940
and 1960. As these trees
were planted very close

together, they are considered to be highly flammable, increasing the threat
to property and danger
for firefighting crews in
the event of a wildfire.
By restoring the area
to grasslands, wildfires can
be more safely controlled.
Also, by removing the
plantation, Parks Canada
is reducing a significant
impact on the rough fescue grassland ecosystem.
The plantation trees
were never maintained,
making them poor candidates for salvage, however, efforts are underway to salvage firewood
where feasible. Logging

debris and trees that are
not salvaged for firewood
will be burned. This project is being worked on by
Parks Canada fire crews,
First Nations contractors,
and other contractors.
As part of this project,
research will be conducted
to understand the grassland
re-establishment
process. A healthy rough
fescue grassland contains
many species of native
grass, flowers, and shrubs,
and the long term goal
of the program is to restore many of these native
plants to this area. RMNP
contains 25 km2 of rough

NEWDALE NEWS
By RAVENS GLEN WI
he Newdale Early Birds

Club sent 10 couples
to Minnedosa on January
21st for a 500 tournament day. The only fortunate winners from Newdale were Hilda Davies and
Ida Bradley who picked
up third prize. Congratulations ladies! Everyone
enjoyed a tasty lunch and
social time.
Shelley Zahaiko returned recently from a
weeks holiday visiting her
94 year old Mother and
other relatives in Edmonton and Cochrane, Alberta.
She spent most of her time
with Shannon and her
family in Cochrane where
they live. How convenient

that West Jet has the flights
to Calgary for people to use
in this area of Manitoba,
even if they are cancelling
one.
Shirley Pederson returned from a weeks
holiday visiting with her
son Dwight and Donna in
Melbourne, Florida. They
enjoyed lots of great visiting and seeing the sights
around that area. The
weather was rather cool,
but far better than -30 degrees in Manitoba! Those
freak tornados that hit
Florida were fairly close
to them but missed thank
goodness.
Dwight and
Donna are moving into a
new to them home on a
nice acreage in the area on

February 15th.
We send best wishes
to Betty Fossum who is still
in Minnedosa Hospital recovering from her broken
hip. We are hoping every
day shows some improvement Betty and youll be
home soon.
There was lots of great
curling to watch last weekend as we were treated
to most of the Scotties
Womens Playdowns from
the different provinces.
The Scotties Tournament
should have some worthy
opponents to take on Jennifer Jones Team Canada
rink. Hard not to cheer for
our Manitoba foursome!
Some pretty big upsets too!

Preventing Ice Dams

Dear Reena,
I love to make homemade buns and they usually turn out light and fluffy
but unfortunately some
are big and some are small.
Is there a trick to baking
evenly shaped homemade
buns? Frankie
Dear Frankie,
Ensure that every bun
uses equal amounts of
dough by weighing each
pre-baked bun on a kitchen scale. The typical size
for a dinner roll is 2 ounces per roll. Use the same
rolling technique for every
bun.
Dear Reena,
Saw your recent response about deep frying a
turkey. I thought it was important to note the importance of following all safety
precautions when deep
frying a turkey. And YES, it
is totally worth the effort!

Legendary Performance Takes Crowd Back In Time
Elvis rocks the house.

nternational acclaimed
performer Daylin James
with his alter egos Tom
Jones and Elvis Presley,
had an audience of around
300 fans at the Minnedosa
Community Conference
Centre clapping and singing along to songs from
days gone by on Saturday,
January 23rd. The live concert was a new venture for
the Minnedosa Lions Club
and a very successful one
too. There were smiles
everywhere, the audience
was smiling, Tom Jones
and Elvis were smiling
and so were all the volunteer organizers, Gary
MacDowall, chairman for

the event, exclaimed. The
Minnedosa Lion Club held
the concert as a fundraiser
with proceeds to be allocated to local community
projects over the coming
year. There were draws for
door prizes, complementary coffee and tea with delicious homemade treats
at intermission, a rainbow
auction and a whopping
$500 50/50 prize.
Daylin James is a twotime Grand Champion Elvis tribute performer and
is originally from Thunder

OBITUARIES
EDITH MARGARET HAY
FEBRUARY 28TH, 1938
JANUARY 23RD, 2016
Edith Margaret Hay passed
away after a courageous battle.
Edith was born in Winnipeg,
the second child of Nellie
and Herman Kowlesky. She
attended school at Oak Bluff
before her family relocated
to Austin. Edith received her
teaching certificate at Normal
School in Winnipeg and taught
for a short time at schools near
Plumas and Bagot.
In 1959, Edith married her sweetheart Don
Hay. They lived on the family farm near Austin until moving to
Minnedosa in 1967. They relocated to Brandon in 1979, then
returned to Minnedosa in 1986. Edith operated the concession
at the Minnedosa Golf Club for two summers in the late 70s,
worked at The Bay in Brandon and at the Minnedosa United
Church office.
Edith was a dedicated wife and mother. She worked tirelessly,
offering unconditional love and support to her family. Family
and friends were very important to Edith. She loved having people over to her home where much laughter could be
heard. The Hay home was a gathering place and she always
had room for one more at the table or to spend the night.
Edith was very active in her community. She was a longtime
member of The Order of the Eastern Star where she served as
secretary. She also enjoyed the companionship she found in
the Red Hat Society. She liked going down to the Minnedosa
50 + Activity Centre where she met friends to play cards and
visit.
Edith was pre-deceased by husband Don in 2008. She is
lovingly remembered by her children Donna Dowsett (Jim),
Joan Hay (Neil), Darren Hay (Sandy); grandchildren Lee-Anne
Adams (Peter), Casey Smithson (Kyle), Amy Leonard (Lee),
Melanie, Courtney and Rachael Hay; great-grandchildren Hazel, Wilder and Zachary.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to Dr.
Onyshko and all the staff at Minnedosa District Hospital for
their excellent care and compassion.
A celebration of her life will be held January 28th, 2016 at
the Minnedosa United Church 2:30 p.m. Rev. Natasha Pearen
presiding.
Memorial donations may be made to the Minnedosa Health
District Auxiliary, Box 1916 Minnedosa, MB R0J 1E0 or Central
Plains Cancer Care Services. 318 Saskatchewan Ave. E. Portage

GRACE EVELYN MCLEAN

(nee RUSH)
MAY 23RD, 1953
JANUARY 25TH, 2016
Grace Evelyn McLean (nee
Rush) of Strathclair, MB passed
away at the Minnedosa Health
Centre, at the age of 62 years.
Grace is predeceased by
her husband Glen McLean,
parents William and Gladys
(Harland) Rush, of Minnedosa, MB, father-in-law Kenneth
McLean, of Strathclair.
Grace is survived by her son
Kyle McLean of Winnipeg, MB, daughter
Karen McLean of Canmore, AB, brother Terry (Shelly) Rush
of Minnedosa, MB, mother-in-law Joan McLean of Strathclair, MB, brothers-in-laws: Dennis (Kumiko) McLean of
Kyoto, Japan, Ian (Elaine) McLean of Strathclair, sister-inlaws: Jo-Ann (Greg) McKerchar of Strathclair, Diane (Mark)
Nowell of Winnipeg, MB, Doreen (Bill) Sawyer of Beulah, MB.
Grace started school in a one room school house near her
family home in the RM of Odanah. She later went to high
school and graduated from Minnedosa Collegiate Institute. Following high school she moved to Winnipeg and started working
for the Royal Bank of Canada, where she would meet Doreen,
who would later introduce Grace to Doreens brother, Glen.
Grace was transferred to the Wawanesa Branch of the Royal
Bank, where she worked from 1979 to 1984. When she married
Glen McLean on August 25th, 1984, she moved to the McLean
family farm near Strathclair. She would then work at the Newdale Branch of the Royal Bank. Upon the branches closing, she
worked for the former local Member of Parliament, Inky Mark,
in his community offices in Minnedosa and Erickson. Grace,
along with Glen farmed on a quarter section while raising their
two children, Kyle and Karen. She would reside on the farm
until Glens passing, at which time she moved into Ellice Lodge,
Strathclair. She enjoyed her time living on the farm, with her
cows, dogs, cats, and small flower gardens. Once moving into
Strathclair she could be found socializing with the ladies in
Ellice Lodge and going to the local community centre. Grace
also enjoyed travelling, both local and afar. Prior to marriage,
she took many trips including trips to Europe, the North West
Territories, west coast of Canada, and many other areas. She
and Glen did a road trip across Alberta and Saskatchewan
after dropping Karen at college in Vermilion, AB. Most recently
she took trips with Kyle to Kelowna, Vancouver Island, and a
month ago to Vancouver. She was fortunate to see many of her
family, relatives, and friends on her travels, before her passing.
The family would like to thank Dr. Onyshko and all the staff at
Minnedosa Health Centre who ensured Grace had the best care
in her final days.
The funeral service will be held on Friday, January 29th,
2016 at 1:00 p.m. from Strathclair United Church, Strathclair,
with Rev. Jamie Bradshaw officiating. Interment will follow in
the Strathclair Cemetery. If friends so desire, donations may
be made to the Strathclair United Church Memorial Fund,
Minnedosa Health Centre, or a charity of their choice. Remembrances and condolences may be emailed to raesfs@mymts.net
Raes Funeral Service of Shoal Lake and Erickson is in care of
arrangements. (204) 759-2160.

Mom passed away at Comox Valley Senior Village, Courtney, BC at the age of 83, with her daughter Jeanne by her side.
Marg was predeceased by her husbands, Bill Low and Bob
Paxton, parents Mary and Jack Deacon and brother Bob Deacon.
Marg is survived by sister Mary Vuginier, children Jeanne
(George) Endall, Jim (Zoria) Low, Tom (Barb) Low, Murray Low and stepchildren Marshall (Jackie) Paxton and Barb
(Tom) Low. Mom counted 10 grandchildren, Becky, Cathy,
Sadie, Jackson, Bobbi-Jo, Mike, Jodi, Steven, David and Becky,
and 17 great grandchildren as her own and loved them all
profoundly. She stressed to them the importance of having a
good education, always trying your very best, paying attention
to your health, and learning to occupy your spare time with
positive activities like the arts, sports and learning to swim.
Marg was a devoted Registered Nurse/Public Health Nurse
in Manitoba for 40 years. She was very compassionate and
conscientious about care to her patients and was proud that
she was instrumental in the vaccination drive to eradicate
polio from the province during the early 1960s. She enjoyed
reunions with her lifelong friends, the 1954 graduating class
of Grace General Hospital, Winnipeg, was a lifetime member of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority, enjoyed curling, bowling, golf
and swimming and was very active until fall of 2012 when
Alzheimers disease made these activities difficult for her.
Margs family would like to express our thanks to Comox
Valley Senior Complex Care Unit staff for their amazing care
in the life and the dignity provided her in her passing. We
would also like to express our gratitude to all her friends and
family who have supported and loved her over the years.
Mom was one of a kind, fiercely independent and determined to live life on her terms. She will be sadly missed by
her family, extended family and many wonderful friends.
Mom has been cremated and a private Celebration of Life service will be held at Foxwarren, Manitoba in late spring 2016.
