It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Cheryl Betker on June 29, 2023. Cheryl passed away peacefully at her home in Gimli.
She is survived by her husband Doug, her daughter Aimee (Michael) Betker, son Kyle Betker, grandson Wesley Betker, her sister Debbie (Don) Klassen, sister-in-law Julie (Al) Pinel and brothers-in-law, Bob Betker and David (Lyla) Betker, as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins. Cheryl particularly loved spending time with her grandson Wesley; they had a wonderful bond together.
Cheryl was born in Winnipeg and lived there until moving to Gimli in 2003. Cheryl and Doug were married in August 1973 and they were just shy of celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary.
Cheryl had many hobbies, but her main joy was quilting, which she used to express her love to others. She was an avid traveller and her highlight was spending three months in Australia and New Zealand with Doug. They also spent several winters enjoying life and keeping warm in Florida.
Cremation has taken place. Celebration of Life will take place at a later date with family and friends.
A special thanks to the staff at the Gimli Hospital for the kind and wonderful care of Cheryl.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society in Cheryl’s name.

No words can express the massive loss I feel in my heart. You were the sister I never had. The memories of chocolate bar sandwiches with sprinkles … the many days spent at the farm .. family get togethers playing horseshoes and cards and just spending time. You will always be in my heart and now a special angel for us all. Sending so much love to you Pilsbury, Aimee and Michael, Kyle and Wesley 🩷🩷 - Posted by: Donna and Dwight (Cousins) on: Sep 13, 2023
