LESLIE-ANN (BRIDGET) SINCLAIR 1940 - 2019 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bridget Sinclair, peacefully and surrounded by family, on Tuesday, March 12, 2019, after a long and arduous battle of raising three boys. Left to cherish her memory are her children, Mike of Domain, MB, Blake (Michelle) of Calgary, AB, and Shawn (Adele) of Winnipeg; her grandchildren, Jessica, Riley, Anna and Jeff; her sister Julia, nephew Kevin, and the daughter she never had, her niece Rochelle, as well as many other extended family members. Bridget was born in Flin Flon, raised in Emerson, then schooled at McGill University for physiotherapy. Love brought her to the north, to Thompson, where she married Glen Sinclair. Her love of music brought her into the fold of the Aurora singers in Thompson -creating a sisterhood that lasted a lifetime. She also enjoyed summers at the lake and winter ski trips, but no matter where she was always the life of the party and could be counted on for getting you into trouble. Bridget loved her kids and grandkids and was happiest when she could hold family feasts and make everyone belly laugh with her wit and humour. After Glen's passing she made her home in the Winnipeg Canoe Club where she joined a community of great friends. She was predeceased by her parents, Bill and Olive Lewthwaite, and her love of 47 years, Glen Sinclair. There will be a come and go celebration of Bridget's life at the Grant Park Fionn MacCool's Irish Pub, Thursday, April 25 from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. A family interment will take place at a later date at Thomson "In the Park" Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Bridget's memory to a charity of one's choice. THOMSON "IN THE PARK" 204-925-1120 Condolences may be sent to www.thomsoninthepark.com
