Interment to follow at Glen Eden Memorial Gardens. We thought of you in love today, but that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday and days before that too. We think of you in silence, we often speak your name. Now all we have is memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake with which we'll never part. God has you in his keeping. We have you in our hearts. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Mennonite Central Committee (MCC).

I only got to know Oma for a few years, but I am very grateful that I had the chance to do so. She was always very kind and welcoming when I joined the family and I'll never forget that. Rest in peace Oma. - Posted by: Steven Champagne (Granddaughter's Husband) on: May 01, 2015

I will always remember Oma for what a wonderful and honest person she was. She always took care of her grandkids and made sure we were entertained. No one baked quite like Oma and though we may try to replicate it, it will never be as delicious! I will forever miss my Oma, and I hope she knew how much she truly was loved. May her memory live on in all of us. Rest in peace Oma. - Posted by: Kayla Koop (Granddaughter ) on: Apr 29, 2015
