Connie was born on February 26, 1949 and started her life living in a small granary on the Einarsson family property in Arborg, Manitoba where her mom created a loving home. Shortly after her birth the family moved to Winnipeg where she lived her whole life.
She loved spending time with family and friends at her cottage in Winnipeg Beach where you could always enjoy music, laughs and a good time. Through the years she also enjoyed volunteering at Donwood Manor, Princess Margaret School and the Nearly New Shop where she met many friends. Her favourite pastimes were reading Stephen King novels, cross-stitch and ceramics.
She looked forward to her weekly lunch visits with Terry and Donna and treasured our Sunday night family dinners.
A special thank you to the staff at Concordia Hospital for her care, especially to her nurse Loryn who helped us more than he will ever know.
A private family service will take place at a later date.
In Connie’s memory please enjoy a cup of “Timmy’s” coffee with a friend. Donations can also be made in her memory to Diabetes Canada (www.diabetes.ca).
