BETTY DYCK KROEKER Saturday, Nov. 6, 2004, Mom changed her residence and peacefully left this earth for her new heavenly home to be with her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. She is survived and lovingly remembered by her husband Walter; her children and their families: Bruce (Elma), grandchildren Cari (Keith Brown) and Dwayne; great-granddaughter Katelyn; Amelie (Rod) Thiessen, grandchildren Jacquie (Joe Engbrecht), Derek and Nicole; Bob (special friend Sherry), grandson Mike; Lorne (Carol), grandchildren Christopher and Caitlin; Marlene (Peter) Rempel, grandchildren Megan, Sydney and Dayna; and Kelly (Carla), grandchildren Mikayla, Taylor and Riley. She will also be dearly missed by her siblings: Katherine, Annie (John), Gertie, Pete (Lottie), Jake (Rose), Lillian (Lorne), sister-in-law Erna, and many nieces and nephews. Mom was predeceased by her first husband Herman in 1999, and by two sisters: Agnes and Mary. Born March 13, 1923 to David and Elizabeth Klassen, Mom grew up in the Ekron area. She was baptized at 17 years of age in Kleefeld, Man. Places of employment included housekeeping in Winnipeg, Blumenort Co-op, Janz Hatchery and Steinbach Bakery. After marrying Dad in 1957, homemaking became her full-time job. Mom was an incredibly hard worker, shown over the years through her yard, her pantry and her home. She had many creative talents and took great pride in her garden, flowers, canning, crafts and handwork. She also took pride in her children and because of her love for music, her children could never sing enough or play their instruments enough for her. Because of Mom's encouragement, we were taught to be available and love working in the church with our music, teaching or whatever abilities we had. Practicing for church even came before doing dishes! Mom was also noted for her generosity, her love to entertain, her sense of humor and getting slightly wild if she was losing a card game. She overcame many obstacles in her life and showed us what a servant's heart is like, unselfishly and lovingly always putting others before herself. Mom was a woman of prayer and her devotional time with God every morning was a priority. She stood on God's Word and trusted Him to come through for her. Woodhaven Manor was Mom's home for the last seven years. She found love again and married Walter in April 2002. Walter brought much joy to Mom and was faithfully at her side right until she took her last breath. Viewing took place at Birchwood Funeral Chapel, Wednesday, Nov. 10 at 7 p.m., with a devotional at 7:30 p.m. The funeral service will be held at the Evangelical Mennonite Church, 422 Main St, Steinbach, Thursday, Nov. 11 at 2 p.m. Interment to follow at Heritage Cemetery, Steinbach. Arrangements entrusted to Birchwood Funeral Chapel, 150 Pennfeld Dr., Steinbach, Man. HELENA FRIESEN (nee Letkeman) 1904 - 2004 Helena Friesen (nee Letkeman), beloved Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother, slipped peacefully from this world Nov. 3, 2004 in Steinbach, Man. She was born to Abram and Helena (nee Harder) Letkeman, Jan. 10, 1904 at Grossweide, Man. The sixth of 12 children, she left school with regret after grade 5 to work on the farm. Helena loved horses and spent many hours working with them in the barn and on the fields. She married John (Johann) Friesen of Halbstadt, Man., Jan. 3, 1928. They later resided at Stuartburn, Horndean, Winkler and Steinbach. Gardening was one of Helena's favorite avocations. She and John maintained large vegetable gardens wherever they lived, as well as carefully tended flowerbeds. Helen continued puttering among the plants into her 90s. She was also a wonderful cook and enjoyed a special talent for crocheting. At the grand old age of 70, Helen took driving lessons and earned her license for the first time. She wanted to share duties behind the wheel when they visited family. Following John's death Helen moved to Cedarwood seniors' apartments in Steinbach, where she assisted in readying the noon meals. She retired from this duty when she turned 90, saying, "I have worked long enough!" Helena would often sit with a lady across the hall, reading the Bible to her. Helena's 100th birthday celebration in January 2004 drew family members from across southern Manitoba, and the occasion was marked with an item in the Steinbach Carillon. At the time of her passing, she was the eldest of Rest Haven Nursing Home.

Rather than mourn her passing, we choose to celebrate her life. Mom grew up in Sprague, Man.

She retired from Ross L. Gray School in Sprague in 1980. Mom had many great loves. In particular, she loved her sports and could always be found glued to her television set watching various events, including curling and football, especially the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Her many pastimes included gardening, reading, music, and her family will always cherish the many memories of lively political debates around the kitchen table. The family wishes to extend their sincere thanks to the first floor staff at Poseidon Care Centre for their care and compassion over the last year. In keeping with her wishes, cremation has taken place and a private family service will be held.
