Eva was the third youngest of ten siblings, born in Grayson, SK on July 23, 1921. She was four years old when her family moved to Clarkleigh, MB. Eva married Ernie on July 29th, 1944 and moved to Warren, MB in 1951 where she resided until her death.
Eva’s deep faith in God was her lifelong compass. She was instrumental in the building of the Roman Catholic Church of the Annunciation in Woodlands and a supporting member all her life. Faith was her unending source of strength.
Family was a priority for Eva; her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren always came first. Her legacy is unconditional love, a strong set of values and family above all else.
Funeral Mass will be held on Friday, October 12th at the Church of the Annunciation, Woodlands at 11:00 a.m. Memorial donations will be gratefully accepted to the Cemetery Fund of the Church of the Annunciation, Box 385 Woodlands, MB R0C 3H0.
