RUTH FLOWER 1930 - 2019 Peacefully, after a courageous battle with Alzheimer's, it is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved mother and grandmother, Ruth Flower, on January 27, 2019 at Kin Place Personal Care Home, in Oakbank, MB, at the age of 88 years. Ruth grew up in Stonewall, MB with her numerous brothers and sisters, lovingly raised single handedly by their mother Matilda (aka: Nanny) Gardner. She later moved to Winnipeg, where after marrying, she raised four children. She worked at various jobs throughout her life, and took many courses along the way. She enjoyed being active, staying healthy, reading, and most of all, playing with her grandkids. She loved adventures, being either on far away travels, or a simple trip to a local park. She also loved gardening and grew a mini paradise in her backyard, for all to enjoy. A service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, February 8, at MacKenzie Funeral Chapel, 433 Main Street, in Stonewall, MB. A special thank you to Svetlana and the caring staff of Kin Place Personal Care Home. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to the Alzheimer Society of Manitoba, 120 Donald Street, Winnipeg, MB R3C 4G2. MacKenzie Funeral Home Stonewall 204-467-2525 info@mackenziefh.com

  • I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. I used to work at kin place and went to visit the girls...I heard a lady speaking and was surprised when I saw your mom. I tried to have a conversation with her but she had no idea who I was. May she Rest In Peace . Our mother passed there two years ago as well. - Posted by: Debbie Charles nee Laurie (Neighbor ) on: Feb 02, 2019
