With loving family by her side, our Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother passed peacefully on January 22, 2025, at the St. Boniface Hospital.
Mom was born on November 30, 1933. She was raised on a small farm near Togo, Saskatchewan, along with her brothers and sisters. After she graduated from high school, Mom worked hard to achieve her dream of becoming a teacher. Following graduation from Teachers’ College, Mom relocated to Swan River, Manitoba, to begin her teaching career. It was during this time that she met our father Keith and they were married in 1955. Keith and Rosalind settled in Elkhorn, Manitoba where both continued their passion for teaching. In 1965, with four children in tow, Rosalind and Keith moved to Kingston, Jamaica for three years, followed by another adventure to Mpwapwa, Tanzania for two years. In 1970, Rosalind and Keith and returned to Canada and moved to Starbuck, Manitoba, where Rosalind eventually resumed her teaching career, teaching Kindergarten, which lead her to Special Education, as a Resource Teacher. Mom retired in Starbuck where she and Dad continued their very active life, enjoying many dinners with friends, devoting special time remembered by their grandchildren, reading, curling, participating in many community organizations, sharing a love of God through the church and music, especially the choir at the Trinity Lutheran Church, and a sharing their great passion of flowers and gardening. Rosalind and Keith spend many years travelling and dancing, in warmer climates, with a group of wonderful friends.
