Town Council has set a deadline of August 31st


for the demolition of the delapidated brick
building on Main Street which was long
known as the St. John Law Office.
By DARRYL HOLYK

innedosa Town Council met for a special meeting before its Committee of the Whole meeting on
Tuesday, May 24th. Mayor Orr presided with Councillors Taylor, Luker, Wedgewood and MacDowall in attendance. Councillors Skatch and Saler were absent.
The meeting opened with a public hearing to deal
with a conditional use application applied for by Brio
Massage. The application asked that the development
of a registered massage therapy service be allowed in
a home previously zoned as residential. As no objections against the application were received, Council
approved the conditional use order allowing Brio Massage to open and operate out of the former home.
For some time, the Town has expressed concerns
about the former St. John law building on the west side
of Main Street across from the cenotaph. CAO Jenkins
reported that Tanners Crossing Planning District Development Officer, Brian Skatch had given the buildings owner, Norm Sims, until May 31st to have the old
crumbling building torn down. Mr. Sims responded
with a letter asking for an extension to August 31st to
clean the building. Council discussed the situation and
agreed to grant the request providing that the old St.
John building is demolished and lots cleaned by August
31st.
Council also dealt with two subdivision proposals from Murray Parrott on behalf of Prairie Oasis Ltd.
The existing four and six-plexs located along the river
behind the former Armoury are being converted into
bare land condominiums.

Branch of the Royal
Canadian Legion has decided to financially support the fundraising efforts for Minnedosas new
Primary Care Clinic.
On Monday, the presentation of $100,000 was
made by members of the
local Legion and Ladies
Auxiliary to the fundraising committee at the future site of the clinic just
west of the Minnedosa
Health Centre.
The Primary Care
Clinic steering committee
has approached a number
of organizations, service

groups and neighbouring


municipalities regarding
the value of investing in
this much needed project
which will serve residents
in not only the immediate
Minnedosa Minto-Odanah area but also from a
much greater regional aspect.
When the group first
approached the local legion members, the executive discussed the project
and voted unanimously
to financially support the
clinic project.
We feel it is necessary to attract and retain
doctors in our community
and to keep those of our
community who are in

need of health care here


rather than having to travel to facilities elsewhere,
stated Legion President,
Duane LaCoste. This, of
course, is important to
many of our members
who are advancing in age.
We also acknowledge that
the community has been
very supportive of the Legion and our activities and
we see this as an opportunity to give back to the
community.
It is our hope that
this new facility will attract more physicians and
I think it should certainly
help that process. That is
really what we need, added Valerie St. John, former

minnedosatribune.com

Minnedosa physician and


current president of the
Legion Ladies Auxiliary.
The committee is
overwhelmed by the commitment of the local Legion, stated Primary Care
Clinic Chairman, Wayne
Currah. Hopefully this is
a sign of things to come
from other service groups
and individuals to help
the fundraising that we
will be pushing hard on
over the next few months.
A public meeting regarding the new Primary
Care Clinic will be held
the evening of Wednesday, June 15th. Watch next
weeks edition for more
details.

Motel Owner Frustrated With Recycling Issue


By RYAN THORPE

erry Green, owner of


the Gateway Motel,
says that on a number of
occasions the recycling
behind his business has
not been properly collected, resulting in recyclables being scattered about
his property.
Well its happened
four times now, said
Green. The recycle lorry
comes to pick up at the
back of the motel, he
doesnt secure the recycling in the back of the
truck properly and as he
comes around the corner
it falls out and its just left
there. And the next minute the bags are bust and
its blowing everywhere.
They come a couple days
later or so and pick it, but
they dont say sorry or
anything like that.
Green says that on
one occasion the recyclables were blowing around
the north end of town, and

that on another he was


forced to clean it up himself. He also says that he
has raised the issue with
Town officials on more
than one occasion.
Kevin Marcino, Town
of Minnedosa Public
Works
Superintendent,
says that Green has contacted him about the issue and in turn informed
Green to speak to the individual contracted by the
Town to collect recycling.
No Im not aware
of that, said Ken Cameron, who currently has
Minnedosas
recycling
contract. There was one
time that I got call from
the Town and they had
said that we had picked
up recycling there and
it was scattered all over
their yard. So I drove over
immediately upon that
call and didnt see anything around and I spoke
to my guys who said that
they hadnt picked up
anything from there at

that particular time.


Cameron also thinks
there may be some miscommunication on what
is actually occurring. If
there is recycling being
scattered around, I am not
sure how that is happening, said Cameron. Im
not sure how stuff would
even fall out of that truck.
But I mean if theyve seen
it fall out of my truck I will
deal with that, for sure,
but I question whether
that has happened. The
Town would normally
give them my number, so
theyve chosen not to call
me for some reason.
Cameron also suggests that there are a
number of different possible explanations to the
reoccurring issue at the
Gateway Motel. He says
that other businesses
in town have had problems with people going
through their bins in order to find empty bottles,
as well as the possibility of individuals who live

outside the city driving in


to dump their recycling.
I think maybe that stuff
is being scattered around
because people are going through it, said Cameron. Because that has
happened beforethere
are also farmers who at
times dont want to go out
to the dump so they drive
into town to dump it and
they could just be passing through and tossing
it there. Unless theyve
seen it fall out of a truck,
Im really not sure how
that would happen when
we have a guy riding on
the back of the truck who
would see it fall out and
stop to pick it up.
Whatever the explanation, Green is frustrated by the events. Im trying to keep the place tidy,
said Green. Ive been
doing this place up since
weve been here and then
the next minute weve got
garbage blowing everywhere.

reducing the strict regulations and work load required for auditing of municipal support groups
and not-for-profits. Currently, under the Public
Sector Accounting Board
(PSAB) such groups as
libraries, museums, archives, halls, recreation
commissions, etc are
experiencing major expenses in order to have
financial audits completed to meet strict auditing guidelines and regulations. Many of these
groups are not-for-profit,

financially supported by
their local municipality
and run by community
volunteers. This auditing
expense has a negative
impact on a municipalitys financial position.
Council decided to draft
the resolution to be presented and discussed at
the upcoming mid western meeting of the AMM.
If approved at the mid
western meeting, the resolution will move forward
for presentation at the
November AMM conference.

Dear Editor,

ast week in The Trib


there was another
submission by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation
(CTF) once again writing about deficits, public
services and government
debt. Th is group has become a fixture in media not
just in Manitoba but across
the country, quoted with
regularity in their denunciation of taxes and public sector spending. Who
exactly are they and who/
what do they represent?
(Hint - its not taxpayers)
The CTF website says
they are a citizens advocacy group dedicated
to lower taxes, less waste
and accountable government but citizens cannot
become members of this
organization and despite
its name, this is not a federation. Although they
claim to speak for 84,000
supporters, there is no
way to determine this. Although the CTF rails on
about transparency and
accountability, they are
anything but themselves.
Donor names are kept secret, they hold no AGM,
no policy conferences, no
membership gatherings; a
group of fi ve directors are
the only people who can
be and are members of the
CTF. These fi ve directors
determine policy, set their
budget etc. One of these
directors is, among other
things, the spokesperson

Letters to
the Editor
for Conrad Black, another
is the litigation director
of a organization of right
wing lawyers that argues
that Canadas labour laws
have no place in a free society, and yet another runs
an organization that advises corporations on how to
keep unions out.
Where does the majority of their funding come
from, and why? Like the
Tea Party in the US, some
citizens send them donations thinking that they
are supporting a grassroots
group. The CTF is actually a group that represents
commercial and political special interests while
pretending to represent
grassroots citizens. Th ey
are nothing but a lobby
group with a knee-jerk
response to government
spending so why are they
even provided the coverage they get in the media
and why are the media
uncritical of their propaganda? The CTF does not
produce any research or
analysis and most of their
employees are nothing
but media spokespeople
so they spend little to no
time or effort assessing the
economic or social costs of

their proposals. Their obsessive objections to public sector debt and deficit
are not based on sound
economic principles but
aim to undermine the effectiveness of the public
sector in the minds of the
public.
The CTF advocates a
corporate and personal tax
structure that benefits corporations, not citizens. The
CTF never talks about the
full implications of lowering taxes. Their relentless
anti-tax articles are simplistic and are nothing but
rhetoric. A little research

reveals that governments


across Canada are taxing
us billions and billions of
dollars less than they did
20 years ago and are now
struggling to provide essential public services.
Governments have actually shrunk and are not
getting richer but printing these articles without
questioning their source
feeds the public perception that we are overtaxed
and government is too big.
That is, of course, their objective.
I always wonder why
I am told how much of the
public debt I own, but am
never told how much my
public assets are worth.
Im probably still in the
black.

I have met kids who have
lost limbs in accidents that
should never have happened. With the weather
warming up, its a good
time to teach kids about
the dangers that can come
with summer, such as train
tracks and farm machin-

teach them to be safe while
riding their bike and skateboard.

parents to take their children on a safety walk
and point out the dangers
in their area. It only takes

Lets Go Into Business


Living in
Paradise
By

VERN MAY

EDO, Minnedosa & Area CDC

s I think about the


task at hand today, I
am reminded of the old
story about the man who
was seeking a friend. He
searched far and wide
and couldnt find one.
But then a revelation: He
went out into the world
spreading the kindness
that he hoped to find and
by being a friend, he created impactful relationships. There is a lesson
in that old tale that we
can apply to the work that
we are doing now as a
community to create the
change that we crave.
In the realm of community
development,
were out looking for business. Were sniffing out
leads through the media,
through peers, through
advertisements, and any
other means available.
The results? Well, they
are not entirely that dissimilar from our lonely
man from that old story.
We may secure some
small successes along

CERTIFIED CLOSED CELL


SPRAY FOAM
POLYUREA FAST SET
COATINGS AND LININGS

the way, but we have yet


to latch on to that game
changer that creates both
jobs and visibility for us
here.
What is required for
us to entice the business
interests that we need
here is to approach our
interests for growth not
as a community, but as a
business. To attract commercial enterprise, we
ourselves need to demonstrate that we speak the
same language, that a relationship will be as beneficial to those merchants
as it is for us. In short,
we need to walk and talk
like a business, with the
autonomy to make things
happen at the pace of investment and not at the
slow crawl of government.
You may be saying:
Well, thats all good in theory, but what does walking and talking like business really look like? It
helps to model out strategy after the principles of
business success.

First, you need to


have a written plan. This
is not different from what
we do now. We need to
identify where we are,
where we want to go, and
how we plan to pay for it.
But the most important
element of the plan are
the results that it produces. Putting the plan into
action, what measurable
success can we achieve?
A good plan is considered
to have nine parts execution for every one part of
strategy.
Its also important to
remember that the plan
needs to be adaptable. As
circumstances
change,
as goals get met, the plan
needs to adapt with it.
This is where things fall
down in most municipal
environments. A project
with finite resources and
specific results is identified and the completion
of that project whether
it produces results or
not, is considered closed.
The plan, under the regime of annual budgets
often does not have an
evergreening clause that
allows for a seamless
transition to successive
projects along the same
theme.
Its important to be
accountable. This principle goes beyond just

taking ownership for your


actions, but instead for
the full strategy. From
planning through delivery, the management of
your project combined
with your results is what
every business owner has
to be accountable for. If
you have employed a
strategy that produced no
results, either you have to
reconsider the strategy,
or re-evaluate the managers responsible to achieve
the companys objectives.
In short, we need to
plan short term, think
(and build autonomy to
proceed) long term, and
be forthright and accountable about all of our
successes and failures.
To get business, we need
to be business. I suspect,
that like the man in the
earlier story, we will find
that the leads start to
come at us better than we
envisioned trying things
the hard way.

in her service to Manitobans. Thirty-eight years of
Morrisons 42 year career
were spent in Minnedosa,
where she made an impact
on not only the lives of the
residents but also her coworkers.
Care just flowed from
her and as a staff member
she could always be relied
on, said former co-worker
Judy McFadden. She was
not only a caring nurse,
but also always caring to
her fellow staff members.
I dont think there is one
person here who didnt
enjoy working with her.
After retiring in October of last year, Morrisons
dedication to improving
the lives of the residents of
the Minnedosa Personal
Care Home needed to find
a new outlet. In January,
mere months after her retirement, she started a social club at the care home

By RYAN THORPE

n Friday, May 27th,


over twenty people
crowded into the sunroom
at the Minnedosa Personal
Care Home to celebrate
their friend and former coworker Holly Morrison.
Earlier in the month,
on May 10th, she had been
presented with the Award
of Excellence for her dedication to long term and
continuing care.
To get this award for
something that Ive enjoyed immensely is just
so surreal, said Morrison.
I truly believe that your
award is having a job that
you like and then to get an
award on top of that, its
just like double dipping.
Morrison received the
award in recognition of
her career which was characterized by going above
and beyond the call of duty

dedicated to promoting personal growth and


physical well-being. The
social club currently has
14 members and strives to
positively impact the lives
of residents through activity, laughter, inhibiting
loneliness, boosting personal confidence and the
promotion of self-worth
and contentment.
We help with activities and try to make a difference through growth
instead of decline in the
care homes, said Morrison. Quite often individuals decline, but they
dont need to. There can be
growth through laughter
and activities, so were trying to fill in the gaps with
the social club.
During the celebration, her former co-workers congratulated Morrison on her achievement,
shared anecdotes and

memories of her career


and joked that she seemed
to spend more time in the
care home now then she
did before her retirement.
It is not a surprise to those
who know her, as Morrison
selflessly dedicated her
working life to the service
of others.
When asked about her
reaction to receiving the
award, Morrison said I
just couldnt believe it, because I really didnt expect
it. I was very sad to retire,
but felt I needed to, to allow new blood in And
then I had this in mind [the
social club] and it was just
a continuation, to not have
the worry of nursing, but
have the honour and visitation.

n Friday, May 27th,


the Minnedosa Calvary Church held its second annual Ice Cream Social Fundraiser.
The purpose of the
event was to raise money to fund a trip for the
churchs youth group,
whose members are aged
12 to 19. In total over 120
tickets were sold for the
event and 27 silent auction
items were donated by local businesses and indi-

viduals in the community.


They are raising
funds to go on a youth trip
next year, said Lorraine
Kaczor, youth pastor at
Calvary Church.
We went this year
for the first time to Saskatchewan to a bible college there. They have a
big youth event and kids
come from B.C. to Manitoba and everywhere in
between, they all converge at this place and its
so much fun.
One of the nice

things [about going to the


camp] is that they get to
meet kids from all over
western Canada. This is
a Christian youth group,
so theyre learning Christian principles while they
are there too. And I think
sometimes they feel like
the 12 kids here are all
there are and yet hundreds of kids descend
on this place, so they get
to find out that being a
Christian is worldwide actually and they arent left
feeling so isolated.

Solutions and
Substitutions
By

REENA NERBAS
Hi Reena,
I recently leaned into
a tree band around the
elm in our yard and got
the goopy stuff all over my
left shoulder. I tried soap,
putting it in the freezer
and water to try and get
that goop off but it just

wont budge. Do you have


any solutions for removing that sticky stuff from
clothing? Help! Carmelle
Dear Carmelle,

THE TOWN OF MINNEDOSA


UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF THE PLANNING ACT

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING


On the date and at the time and location
described below, a PUBLIC HEARING will be held to
receive representations from any persons who wish to
make them in respect to the following matter:
THE TOWN OF MINNEDOSA BY-LAW NO. 2548
Being an AMENDMENT to the
TOWN OF MINNEDOSA ZONING BY-LAW NO. 2452,
as amended
HEARING LOCATION: Town of Minnedosa Council
Chambers, Main Floor, 103 Main
Street South, Minnedosa, Manitoba.
DATE & TIME:

June 14, 2016 at 6:30 p.m.

GENERAL INTENT:

The intent of By-law No. 2548 is to


re-classify land for future residential
development.

FROM:

RS RESIDENTIAL (SINGLE-FAMILY)
ZONE

TO:

RM RESIDENTIAL (MULTIPLEFAMILY) ZONE

AREA AFFECTED:
The area of land affected is an area of
land found within the SE of Section 2, Township 15, Range 18
WPM, Lots 25-32 Block 21, Plan 4 NLTO otherwise known as 260
1st Street S.W., Minnedosa, as shown outlined in a heavy solid line
on the following map:

Gone or peanut butter to


remove the goop. Next apply dish soap to the area
to avoid a grease stain. If
the stain remains apply a
mixture of 2 tbsp. washing
soda and one quarter cup
water onto the stain. Let it
sit for one hour and wash
as usual. It is important
that you avoid putting the
clothing into the dryer until the stain is gone. Reapply the treatment until the
stain disappears. Another
option is to scrub the area
with a bar of Sunlight
laundry soap and water,
the stain will eventually
disappear.
Dear Reena,
I used shoe polish to
fix the colour on my leather sun faded couch. The
leather took the polish
very well, the fading was
gone and the couch developed beautiful shine upon
buffing. Unfortunately, to
my horror the polish now
stains the garments of
people sitting on it. Can
this be rectifi ed or have I
ruined my couch permanently? Chris
Dear Chris,
It is true that leather
on shoes is tanned differently than leather to
make shoes. Shoe polish
cannot be absorbed into
furniture; the shoe polish remains on top of the
textile and makes a sticky
mess. You can remedy this
challenge with patience
and time. Your best bet to
remove shoe polish from
leather furniture is to buff
it with a soft cloth, a little

water and dish soap or


fabric detergent. Buff gently until the cloth no longer picks up color. Wipe
the entire couch with a
damp cloth.
Feedback from Wise
Contributors
Dear Reena,
Marianne had a problem with water spots on
her hardwood floors. Not
sure if this will work for
her but I have laminate
fl ooring in my dining
room and could not clean
it without getting water
spots. A friend told me she
always cleans her floors
with a spray bottle of
Windex and a microfiber
cloth. I have been using
Windex ever since and no
longer have trouble with
water spots. Ellen
Re: Painting a fridge
Instead of painting
the fridge, I found a great
solution for renewing an
old fridge. I used wood
grain MACtac to cover my
fridge panel. It was cheap,
easy to care for and looks
great. You can also purchase MACtac in plain
white or colours. Anonymous

introduced me to a commercial product called


Goo Gone and it pretty
much cleans anything and
everything off your car including tar without damaging the finish. The good
news is that it is available
at most hardware/automotive stores. Submitted

Are you a member
of the I Cant Possibly
Remember to Water My
Plants Everyday Club?
Here is the solution for
you. Find an empty glass
bottle with a long neck
so that you can push the
neck far into the soil i.e.
wine bottle or glass Coke
bottle. Hold the empty
bottle upside down three
or four inches away from
the potted plant. Push the
neck of the bottle into the
soil on an angle towards
the plant to make a hole.
Fill the bottle with water

and quickly flip the bottleneck into the hole trying


not to spill. The top of the
soil may feel dry but under the top layer the soil
remains damp. Refill the
bottle as needed.

Provincial Budget Aimed At Correcting Fiscal Course


SUBMITTED

udget 2016 delivers


upon the commitments made by Manitobas
new government to protect
front-line services while
eliminating wasteful government spending and
putting Manitoba back on
a responsible fiscal track,
Finance Minister Cameron
Friesen announced this
week.
A stronger economy
is the best pathway to better services for Manitobans, said Friesen. Just
six weeks ago, Manitobans
elected a new government
with a strong commitment
to charting a better, safer
course. We have been
asked to address the challenges facing our province
with a careful approach
based on the principals
of trust, compassion and
common sense.
Manitobas new government recognizes the
need for a plan to return
the province to fiscal balance to avoid further
downgrades to the prov-

inces credit rating, which


would have devastating
consequences to Manitobas already-fragile bottom line, the minister said.
Budget 2016 pursues measures which will responsibly restore Manitoba to fiscal balance in eight years,
while engaging the innovative ideas and entrepreneurial spirit of Manitobas
best and brightest.
In recognition of the
harmful effect of high rates
of taxation on the provinces ability to compete
for investments that create
jobs and pay for front-line
services, Budget 2016 includes no new taxes or tax
increases and will not draw
from the Fiscal Stabilization Fund.

The minister noted the


budget includes:
indexing of the basic
personal exemption as of
Jan. 1, 2017;
indexing of income
tax brackets to the rate of
inflation; and
continued education
tax relief for Manitoba seniors through the Seniors

School Tax Rebate.


Manitobas new government is committed to
making Manitoba the most
improved province in Canada, Friesen said. Budget
2016 focuses on investments in programs and
initiatives most important
to supporting Manitoba
families: improving frontline services in health care
and education, and partnering with business and
community leaders to create innovative economic
opportunities and better
jobs.
Friesen noted Budget
2016 provides for:
a $220-million (3.8
per cent) increase in funding for health care over
the current core government 2015-16 forecast to
support ACCESS centres,
health-care centres and
hospitals in Winnipeg and
rural Manitoba, the provincial oncology drug program and other important
health-care services;
a $37-million (1.4 per
cent) increase in funding
for education and training

over the current core government 2015-16 forecast


including a 2.55 per cent
increase in funding for
schools to support initiatives in early years reading,
new schools, resources for
at-risk and Indigenous students, the full implementation of the masters of
social worker Indigenous
knowledge program at the
University of Manitoba,
and operating increases of
2.5 per cent for universities
and two per cent for colleges;
increased provincial
contribution to new construction,
improvement
and maintenance costs
through the Manitoba
Housing and Renewal Corporation; support for early
learning and child care;
increased resources for the
victims of crime; and additional resources to provide
supports for Syrian refugees; and
$1.8 billion for strategic infrastructure funding for roads and bridges,
flood protection, hospitals,
schools, universities and

colleges, as well as municipal infrastructure, and


the tools necessary for the
creation of a single access
point for municipal programming within the provincial government.
We have set a target of achieving balance
within eight years by pursuing measures that will
responsibly address the
unsustainable trajectory of
spending increases while
ensuring the protection of
front-line services for all
Manitobans, Friesen said.
Budget 2016 reduces Manitobas core deficit by $122
million, a 12 per cent improvement over the 201516 forecast. It will keep the
new governments promise to conduct a value-formoney review as well as a
review into government
tendering that look within
government for further
savings.
Th e minister said it
cannot be overstated the
challenges facing Manitoba are significant and in
order to allow the time necessary to carefully correct

Manitobas fiscal course,


balanced budget legislation will be suspended.
This will be accomplished
by repealing the current
Balanced Budget, Fiscal
Management and Taxpayer Accountability Act
and replacing it in Budget
2017 with proposed legislation that would provide
Manitoba taxpayers with
enforceable protection including the restoration of
their right to vote on major
tax increases.
Our government will
introduce new legislation
that would protect taxpayers with a clear, focused
plan for deficit reduction,
enforceable penalties for
non-compliance by elected offi cials and a commitment to restoring the
right to vote on major tax
increases, added Friesen.
Manitobans are not afraid
of hard work and neither
is their new government.
Together, we will build a
better, stronger, more prosperous Manitoba.

BETTY JOYCE FOSSUM


APRIL 1ST, 1938 MAY 24TH, 2016
It is with great sadness that the family of Betty (Fleming) Fossum
announce her passing at the age of 78.
Mom was born in Winnipegosis, MB, the second youngest of
six children born to Jim and Lena Fleming. Mom was educated at
Lynnville, Winnipegosis and Tuxedo Teachers College. Graduating from teachers college in 1957, she began her teaching career
at Mowatt School (near Fork River, MB), grades one to eight and
stayed there until 1959. Mom then taught grades one and two at
Newdale from 1959-1962. It was in Newdale where she met the
love of her life, James (Jim) Fossum. They were married on July 8th,
1961. They were blessed with three children: Wayne, Angie
and Shelley. With the exception of substituting, mom chose to be a stayat-home mother and full time farm wife. She also had many part time jobs doing the books for
Noroskys Garage as well as the Newdale Hall Board, and sold Avon for many years.
Mom was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother and was the most loving, beautiful, patient,
soft-spoken, generous, kind, and caring person you could ever meet and always put others before herself. She was the type of person who loved the company of others, including family and
friends, and would rather be around people than alone, which immensely helped coping with
the depression that she suffered with. She took great pleasure in spending time coffeeing with
her many special friends around the community. She was somewhat of a perfectionist when it
came to school, art and horticultural projects. She loved to spend hours helping her children and
grandchildren with their homework, a 4-H project, decorating their wedding cake, helping plant
a garden, or whatever they requested of her. She also rarely missed watching a sporting event or
dance recital that her grandchildren were in. Her family reaped the benefits of her baking, even
though her sugar allergy wouldnt allow her to eat it. And when she wasnt helping her kids/
grandchildren, she was driving the grain truck and making meals!
Mom had a passion for gardening and especially loved her flowers. She was the president for
many years, on top of being a long standing member of the Newdale Horticultural Society and
later the Minnedosa Horticultural Society. There were many who called upon horticulturalist
Betty for gardening and canning advice, including her daughters! Mom was a true believer in
volunteering in the community. She was heavily involved in community organizations such
as the curling club, 4-H club, Newdale Nursery School, United Church Women, Sunday school,
and even volunteered at schools as an Educational Assistant. Over the years Mom developed
her skills as an artist; she did ceramics for many years and was more recently a member of the
Minnedosa Seniors Watercolours Painters. She always carried a crossword puzzle book wherever she travelled. As a couple, Mom and Dad enjoyed square dancing, curling, playing slow
pitch, camping and travelling. Mom enjoyed the company of their many pets that they had over
the years. Where ever she went there was always a dog at her feet making sure she was safe!
Left to cherish her memory are her husband, Jim of 54 years, children Wayne, Angie (Alan)
Dmytriw, and Shelley (James) Davidson; grandchildren Michael and Carlene Dmytriw, Chris
and Luke Davidson; sisters Lillian (Brad) Bradford, Mary (Frank) Williamson, May (Lionel) Assailly, Eva Fleming and numerous nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her parents Jim
and Lena Fleming and brother and sister-in-law Keith and Edna Fleming.
A Funeral Service was held on Monday, May 30th, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. at the Minnedosa United
Church, Minnedosa, MB with Rev. Elgin Hall officiating. A family Interment at Newdale South
Cemetery, Newdale, MB preceded the service. Should friends so desire, donations may be made
in memory of mom, to the Manitoba Lung Association or the Heart and Stroke Foundation of
Manitoba.
Mom will be dearly missed by her family and friends. We love you mom!
