Matilde Magnifico

In 1923, in the town of Serra san Quirico in the district of Genga in the Italian province of Ancona, a beautiful blue-eyed, blonde-haired girl named Matilde, named after her Nonna, was born to Luigi and Antonia Mingo.

When Matilde was two years old, father Luigi, in search of a better life for his family, lest his wife and daughter and immigrated to Canada. Ten years later, Matilde and her family followed Luigi to begin their adventure in a new world. When she arrived in Winnipeg, Matilde and family settled in old St. Boniface. She went to school at st. Joseph's Academy where she met a lifelong girlfriend, Anna, with whom she began the start of a beautiful friendship that would shine for the next 65 years.

In 1950, at 26 years old, Matilde married Giuseppe, who arrived from Italy in 1948, and they began a 53 year journey together. She prided herself as a mother to Roberto (Shelley), Teresa (Lucien), Franco (Jean), Adriano (Vicki), and Marco; as a Nonna to grandchildren Christophe, Lisa, Eric, Daniel, Michelle, Jayson, James, Matthew, Adam, Nathan, Joel, Alec, Jeremy and Shannon; and as a Bis-nonna to little Elizabeth. She loved each and every one of her family and made each person feel special and unique, especially during birthdays and holidays. Matilde, or "Ilde", to those who knew her well, raised her daughter and four sons on Traverse and Lawndale Avenues Her kitchen table was always bountiful, prepared with gourmet care. She knew that the most important part about being a family was spending time together; and that those Saturday afternoons preparing pizza, with many little fingers spreading the dough, built strong ties and unbreakable bonds within the family.

We will fondly remember her gentle smile and her never ending patience with her cherished children and grandchildren. As she succumbed to cancer, Matilde never complained or blamed anyone for her circumstance. An ardent Catholic, she believed devoutly in God's promise of a new life and felt blessed to feel the prayers and well wishes from her St. Thomas More congregation; and the love and support of Giuseppe and family by her side throughout her illness. She has left this world to join her mother Antonia, her father Luigi, and her brother, Antonio.

Prayers will be said on Sunday, June 8, at 7 :00 p.m., St. Thomas More Church, 66 Birchdale. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Monday, June 9, at 1 :45 p.m., Holy Cross R. C. Church, 252 Dubuc with Father John Kracher, S. M. celebrant. Interment of cremated remains will be held at Glen Lawn Memorial Gardens, 455 Lagimodiere Blvd. A gathering of family and friends will follow in the Glen Lawn Reception Centre. Matilde and family are deeply appreciative of all the care and efforts of the sixth floor St. Boniface hospital nurses and doctors.

Elda Kirton (née Simpson)

Following courageous encounters with several maladies most would have surrendered to with far less resistance, Elda passed away peacefully at home in the eleventh hour of December 28th. One of her physicians had thoughtfully referred to her as an "amazing lady".

She is survived by those who loved her most dearly: her husband of forty-five years, Norman; daughter Janice (Jim, Morgan, Katie); sons Derek (Gabrielle, Arianne, Dante), Greg (Rhonda, Damian, Candace), and her son Troy; several nieces, nephews and special friends. Elda is also survived by her mother, Mary Simpson; brother, Harvey Simpson (Janet); and sister, Marlene Trout.

Elda was predeceased by her father Albert Simpson, son "Dean", and niece Susan. Elda lived life as if it was a game of bridge with such finesse, always overcoming obstacles along the way. Her fondest childhood memories were spent with the twins in Dauphin, where she was raised and later met her husband Norm. Dedicating her life at home, Elda was always boasting and beaming with immense pride about the successes of her children. In the addition to her focus to her husband and children, she shared many warm memories with her best friend Marion in Winnipeg and at the lake.

Elda's family would like to especially thank the many health care professionals who cared for her and treated her most often as a person rather than a patient.

Memorial service will be held on Friday, January 2, 2004 at 3:00 p.m. at Chapel Lawn Funeral Home, 4000 Portage Ave. A reception will follow.

In lieu of flowers, please support a charity of your own preference.
