Johann is survived by his four children, their spouses and eight grandchildren, daughter Margaret Wonko, son-in-law Ken and grandchildren, Matt, Amber and Candice; son Bill Franz, daughter-in-law Pearl (nee Debooy) and granddaughters, Jane and Anna; daughter Ingrid Pawlosky, son-in-law Richard and granddaughter Nadia; daughter Monika Franz-Lien, son-in-law Jeff and granddaughters, Andrea and Emily. He will always be remembered by his sister Margarete (Gretel) Muendt, brother-in-law Adam, and their family in Germany and Russia; mother-in-law, Amalie Rupp, in Winnipeg; sister-in-law Lydia Dyck and her husband Peter, and brother-in-law Hardy Rupp and his wife Gwen, and their families, from Mississauga, ON. He was predeceased by his wife Ella in May 2003, his father David Franz in 1944 and his mother Elisabeth Franz in 1975, as well as by four of his five siblings. Johann was born on February 24, 1925, in Andreburg, Ukraine. At the brave young age of 16, Johann left his mother and sister behind in German-occupied Ukraine, to join the German army as a translator and field messenger. He saw his mother and sister briefly in 1943, but as his family was sent to Siberia shortly thereafter, he never saw his mother again. He was reunited with his sister, Gretel, in Germany in 1993, after 50 years apart. Johann met his future wife Ella, and her family in a refugee camp in Backnang, Germany in 1947. They were married on June 10, 1950 in Winnipeg. Johann worked for 40 years as a cutter and pattern-maker with Canadian Sportswear in Winnipeg and enjoyed the multi-cultural and multi-lingual atmosphere. He was also a devoted member of First Mennonite Church in Winnipeg. He served as a deacon for 25 years, visiting the elderly and those that were ill. His pride and joy, after his children and grandchildren, was the cottage at Pinawa Bay. He also enjoyed travelling with Ella, and especially camping, boating, and fishing (in later years, with the grandchildren). A memorial service will be held on Tuesday, August 24 at 10:30 a.m. at First Mennonite Church, 922 Notre Dame Ave. at Alverstone Street. The family is grateful for the love and concern shown by friends and neighbours, and wishes to thank the nurses, doctors and staff of the Grace General Hospital 3 West, and the Grace Hospice for their wonderful care. Donations in Johann's memory may be made to the Memorial Fund of First Mennonite Church or to the Hospice fund of the Grace General Hospital Foundation. NEIL BARDAL INC. 949-2200 EVELYN GLADSTONE August 14, 2004 EVELYN GLADSTONE Peacefully, on Wednesday, August 4, 2004 Evelyn Gladstone passed away at Riverview Health Centre, at the age of 82 years. Evelyn will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by Joe, her best friend and devoted husband of nearly 58 years; her daughter Frances (Jim); son Len (Arlene); grandchildren, Adam, Talia, Ryan and Brett; and great-granddaughter Hayley. She also leaves to cherish her memory three brothers, Reg, Elmer and Glen Carther; four sisters, Pearl McCorquodale, Doreen Nicklen, Cora Moffat and Shirley Conners; as well as many nieces and nephews. Evelyn was predeceased by her parents, George and Viola Carther; brother Telford Carther and sister Melba Thom. Evelyn led a very active, fulfilling life. Together with her husband Joe she travelled extensively, danced, bowled, curled, golfed and played tennis. Somehow in between she also found time to pursue her love of cooking and baking. In her travels with Joe they discovered the "aloha" of Hawaii and decided to make it their second home during the winter months. Throughout her life Evelyn had an active involvement in the community serving as President of the Rosh Pina Synagogue Sisterhood, President of Aliyah Chapter of Hadassah, and President of the Ladies' Golf Association of Glendale Country Club. Evelyn was kind and generous in all aspects of her life and gave tirelessly of her time. She was a source of strength, courage and devotion to both family and friends. Even as her health failed she remained the embodiment of great will and courage. Independence, strength and a sense of purpose characterized her life. Her passing leaves a huge void in our lives, but she will always be remembered with love. The family would like to express their sincere appreciation to the doctors, nurses and all the caring and supporting staff of 3 East at Riverview Health Centre. We also wish to express to our family and friends our gratitude for their unfailing kindness and support. Funeral services were held August 6, 2004 at the Shaarey Zedek Synagogue officiated by Rabbi Alan Green. Pallbearers were Adam McGinnes, Talia McGinnes, Ryan Gladstone, Brett Gladstone, Morley Chess, Zivy Chudnow and David Meyrowitz.

ANNE GOERTZEN August 14, 2004 ANNE ELAINE GOERTZEN April 2, 1922- August 12, 2004 Peacefully and surrounded by Ed, James, Joy, Lois, Sharon, and Tim; Mom completed her sacred journey on August 12, 2004. Over the last years, Mom continued to live life to its fullest while she faced the challenges of her illness. For Mom this included her family, music, gardening, travels, cottage, scrabble, volunteering, and life long learning. Mom has joined Dad in heaven and is lovingly remembered by her children and grandchildren: Sharon, Ron, and Melissa; Lois, Gerhard, Jonathan, and Anna; James, Kathleen, Tyrone, and Aidan; Joy and Tom; Tim, Kendra, Brenley, and Delaney along with her companion and special friend Ed. Mom is also in the hearts of her sister and brothers: Marie and Leo, Ernie and Evelyn, Lawrence and Bunny and all of her nieces and nephews. Mom was born and raised in Gretna, Manitoba. Her passion for teaching and learning began at Normal School and continued with piano lessons in her home, German school, and English as a Second Language. We were all very proud when in her 60's she graduated from the University of Manitoba with her Bachelor of Education. Mom was always teaching and learning whether that was new musical pieces on her recorder, Spanish for travelling adventures, new gardening techniques with Ed, or business acumen for Anne's Bed and Breakfast. She instilled the love of learning in her children and her grandchildren and was very proud and supportive of all their interests and achievements. Mom was a singer and a performer on the piano, organ, and recorders. She conducted children's choirs, performed in special recorder groups, and sang in Church, Oratorio and community choirs. She supported the careers of other musicians by fundraising and ushering through the Women's Committee of the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra. Her love of music set the stage for the musical careers of all her children and grandchildren and she was their most admiring supporter at all of their performances. Mom's relationship with many of her friends and God were centred within the Fort Garry Mennonite Fellowship. Mom and Dad were instrumental in the establishment of the fellowship as well as Moose Lake Mennonite Camp. The many activities and relationships that she developed through these associations were of vital importance to her. We will celebrate her life at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, August 16, (150 Bayridge Avenue in Fort Richmond, Winnipeg). A family interment will be held at the Mennonite Memorial Gardens. For Mom and Dad, the family cottage and Moose Lake Mennonite Camp were an important part of their lives and gave them many cherished memories. Mom loved and appreciated flowers. However, we would appreciate continuing support of Mom and Dad's education legacy through the Henry and Anne Goertzen Scholarship Fund (Care of Camps with Meaning, 200-600 Shaftesbury Boulevard, Winnipeg, R3P 0M4). Prayers will be held at 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, August 14, 2004 at Thomson "In the Park, " 1291 McGillivary Boulevard, Winnipeg. Our family wishes to thank the staff of the fifth floor of the Victoria General Hospital for their compassionate care of Mom over the last few weeks including: Margaret, Pat, Jennie Elvira, Gundy, Jas, Frances, Cheryl, and Ken.
