VERNA GENEVIEVE LYON (nee HUNT) August 28, 1922 June 20, 2012 It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our dearest Aunt, Verna Geneieve Lyon, wife of the late Philip Henderson Lyon. Verna will be remembered by her many nieces and nephews in Winnipeg and across the country and especially by her niece Joan, who took such good care of her. She is also survived by her sister-in-law Cora. She was predeceased by her beloved Phil, her parents, sisters Evelyn (Charles), (George), Vera, Hazel (David) and Doris (Cliff) and brothers Frank (Florence), George (Lillia), Harry (Elsie), Sylvester, Art (Agnes) and Tom (Margaret). As well as her special friend of 70 years, Fran. Verna was a 35 year employee of the T. Eaton Company, where she worked in custom Draperies. After her retirement, she would travel whenever she had the chance, visiting friends and family, or see new places. The family would like to thank the staff of Maples Personal Care Home, for their compassionate Care toward Verna and their support to the family.

My dear Verna, how I miss you. We had so many wonderful times here in Saint Paul, MN and in Winnipeg. I loved the times you and Philip would visit us in Saint Paul. My family Marlene, Gerry and my brother Grant enjoyed every moment with you and Philip. It is so hard to say so long. It seems like yesterday we were all together. I am glad I have these memories. I still have the red, silk Christmas stocking that you had made. It means everything to me. It is comforting to know that you are with Phil now. Love you both with all my heart.

Aunt Verna was very dear to me. We spent a lot of time together when I lived in Winnipeg and also in Vancouver. We shared a lot of laughs, good times and many memories. I will miss her very much. - Posted by: Gayla Provencal (niece) on: Jun 26, 2012
