ANNE EWAN-SCOULAR It is with deep sorrow we announce the death of my beloved wife, Anne, on July 30, 2004, after a courageous battle with cancer at the age of 79. Her memory will be cherished by her husband Alvin, and his family, who loved her dearly; her son Chris (Gayle) and children, Korbin and Demara; daughter Charlynne (Michael) Meyers and children, Kaylen and Christa; sister Caroline (Jim) Kilpatrick and family; brother-in-law Johnny Bourbonnais, Maureen Bourbonnais; dear friends, Ev and Della Mulder, Cathy French, Norma Kaisaris; cousins, Rae (Frank) Graves (Kingston, ON) and family, June Figsby and family; plus many others too numerous to mention whose lives she touched. She was predeceased by her parents, Herb and Ann Stuart; her first husband William Ewan, and her second son Bradley Ewan. Anne was born in East Kildonan and spent most of her life in that area, moving in later years to Fort Garry. Anne was a gifted musician, who starred on the stage of the Beacon Theatre at a very early age, playing her accordion. She played for years in the band at Grand Beach and started her music teaching career giving accordion lessons. Her love of music continued her entire life, as she later taught organ to many students over the years, conducted musical competitions, instilling her love of music into all lucky enough to have her as their teacher. Music was her life, and she continued to play as long as she could. She always loved the water and enjoyed time spent at her cottage with her family. After the deaths of her first husband and her son, she involved herself with her bridge club, thanks to wonderful neighbour Bertie Beckle. She became a world traveller after her second marriage, as she and Al travelled extensively which she loved. Every year was a new adventure for her. She was determined that cancer was not going to beat her and fought right to the end, at home, with loving care from Al and wonderful homemakers and nurses. Cremation has taken place, and a private service for immediate family only was held. In lieu of flowers, should friends desire, donations may be made in Anne's memory to CancerCare Manitoba, 675 McDermot Ave. Room 0N1 160, Winnipeg, MB R3E 0V9. Anne's spirit is with us all - we wish her Heavenly peace.
