STEPHANIE J. GEORGE January 10, 1926 - December 9, 2017 Blessed with a long life and good health, we are very thankful to have had Stephanie with us for 91 years. Stephanie was born on the farm in Inwood, MB to Ukrainian immigrant parents, John and Annie Annuck. Leaving home at age 16, Stephanie travelled to Winnipeg and to later complete an LPN course. While nursing at the St. Boniface TB Sanatorium, Stephanie met an Airforce Veteran, Arthur George. They were married November 8, 1947 and got to celebrate their 70th anniversary this year. They raised two children, Pat (Ted) and Art (Georgina). They were blessed with grandchildren, Trevor, Jereme, Chelsea (Jacob), Ashlea and step-grandchildren, Melanie (Jared) and Rob; also great-granddaughters, Kria, Tenley and Emmerson; and step-great-grandchildren, Mallory, Ben and Nina. Besides private duty nursing and later working at Donwood Manor, Stephanie loved cooking, cleaning, doing laundry and gardening - tasks that were perfectly done. Mom and Dad enjoyed trips to England, Wales, Scotland, Australia and New Zealand. Travelling by motorhome across Canada and a winter in Texas was also special. Stephanie liked Good Neighbour exercise classes and a special bond with instructors, Susan and Claudia were cherished. With declining health since spring, we wish to thank Concordia Hospital, Misericordia Respite and Oakview Place Care Home 3N for their kindness and care during Mom's time there. Flowers are gratefully declined; be kind to one another as your gift of remembrance. Cremation has taken place. A private family reception is planned to honour Stephanie's life. We will miss Stephanie but will find comfort knowing that her spirit is in a heavenly place together with her parents, grandson Cory; brother and sister-in-law Nick and Rose; and Wally (husband of niece Lorna); and other relatives and friends.

Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

  • Hi, Pat. We are sorry to hear of your mother's passing. The Zielonkos passed along her obituary. Please accept our condolences; she had a long, full life and we hope that she left you with many happy memories. Love, L & L - Posted by: Lorraine and Larry Pommen (Friends) on: Dec 19, 2017

  • Time passes... Pat and Art, think WAY back to your cross the street neighbours. Remember the days when kids were mostly playing outside and nobody worried until dark? Everyone's Mom was the boss of us, and we took it for granted that our friends' mom would solve any difficulties just as ours would. I remember your Mom, Mrs. Palmer, Mrs. Finlan, and Mrs. Jones especially well. Looks like your Mom lived a good long life as my Dad did. Lost my Mom when she was just 67, unfortunately. Did you ever pay her back the list of expenses she marked down for you to repay when you got old enough to earn a paycheque? LOL - Posted by: Roberta Beach (Hill) (neighbour) on: Dec 13, 2017
