Obituary ADA JOANNE TITUS (1941-2016) It is with sadness we announce the passing of Joanne (nee Graham) in Medicine Hat, Alberta on September 28, 2016, at the age of 75 years. Joanne was the eldest daughter of Gilbert and Patricia Graham born in 1941 in Wellwood. She married John Sidney (Jack) Titus in 1961 to start a wonderful life together. Her memory will be cherished by children, Vonn (Renee) of Saskatoon, SK, Michelle (Corey Perrin) of Medicine Hat, AB, Kim (Kim) of Airdrie, AB, Karen of Burnaby, BC , Gerry (Sharon) of Saskatoon, SK; Grandchildren Jon (Allison), Julie, Caleb, Garett (Sarah); Great grandchildren, Ella, Geoffrey, Cali and Jack; sister Phyllis Thorn (Bill), brothers Dennis Graham (Wendy), Myles Graham (Pat), sister-in-law, Barbara Graham and many nieces and nephews. Joanne was predeceased by her parents, husband Jack, brother Gary Graham, grandsons; Geoffrey and Braden. She was proud to be part of this family and many will remember the large gatherings and celebrations including McKinnons, Lees, Grahams and Thorns at the Titus house/store on Main Street. Joanne was a dedicated teacher and loved her career that began at Dempsey school, continued in Wellwood and Brookdale, ending with 23 years at R.J. Waugh in Carberry in 1999. Many children and subsequently their children loved “Mrs. Titus” and the feeling was mutual. Joanne enjoyed many great friendships with her colleagues. She immensely enjoyed a couple of trips to Europe and Australia with some of these friends. She also enjoyed many excursions in Western Canada to visit family. Music and dance were both important to Joanne. She was a great dancer and loved to attend dances all her life. She was a very proud member of the Spud City Cloggers. She was a well-known dancer with the residents at Masterpiece in Medicine Hat. She was always on the go… walking the roads of Wellwood, cross country skiing, visiting Spruce Woods, curling or volunteering. She was a very active community member within the Presbyterian Church, Guild and Choir, Wellwood Community Club, Trans Canada Trail, Carberry Public Library and anyone else needing a helping hand. Memorial Service will be held Friday, October 7, 2016 at 2:00. Tributes in memory of Joanne may be made to the Manitoba Alzheimer’s Touch Quilt Program or to the Knox Zion Presbyterian Church.

Obituary Donald Charles McLeod Donald Charles McLeod, of Neepawa, Manitoba, passed away suddenly, with family by his side, on Thursday, August 18, 2016, in Neepawa District Memorial Hospital, at the age of seventy. On May 1, 1946 Donald was born on his grandparent's (Charles & Elizabeth (McMillan) McGorman) farm, north of Kelwood, in the RM of McCreary, to John Alexander and Edith Katherine (McGorman) McLeod. He was raised in Kelwood, where he attended both elementary and high school. Finishing school in 1965, Donald went to work for Manitoba Hydro as a lineman. On July 6, 1968, Donald married Barbara-Ann Marie Render in Kelwood, MB. Together they raised three children, Suzanne, Crystal and Douglas. Donald began to farm near Riding Mountain in 1975 while he continued his career with Manitoba Hydro. He enjoyed both working with cattle and grain farming. In 1988 the family moved to a farm near Neepawa and Donald was proud when his son later began to farm with him. Donald retired from Manitoba Hydro in 2003, but continued to farm. Throughout his life, Donald loved sports. In winter, he was an avid hockey player. He played with many teams and ended his hockey career with the NHL – noon hour hockey league. In the summer, Donald played baseball and often spent weekends taking part in tournaments. Summer was also a time that he spent hours boating and water skiing at the cabin at Kerrs Lake. Every year, Donald looked forward to his annual fishing trip and spending time with his buddies. Through sports, Donald made many lifelong friends. Donald will lovingly be remembered by his wife Barbara; children: Suzanne (Rob) Mole, Winnipeg, MB; Crystal (Kevin) Clelland, Swan River, MB; and Douglas (Tanya) McLeod, Neepawa, MB; and grand children Cassidy and Tanner, Rhiana and Sierra, and Chloe.

Obituary Mary Margaret Muir (nee Fox) Suddenly, on Saturday, September 17, 2016, Mary Margaret Muir passed away at the Health Science Centre Intensive Care Unit, with her family by her side. Left to cherish her memory are her husband, Tom, of 47 years, her daughter Debra (Les) Dolhun and her two grandchildren, Sarah and Michael Dolhun of Airdrie, AB; sisters Alma Bayes and Anne Konopski; brother Leonard (Beryl) Fox; nieces and nephews and many friends. She was predeceased by her parents, Hazel and Clifford Fox; sister Mabel Fox; brothers Roy and Eddie Fox; and brothers-in-law Lou Bayes and Vince Konopski. Mary grew up on a farm at the edge of the Riding Mountain. She was the oldest of seven children. After graduating from Marvel Beauty School in Winnipeg, she worked in Clear Lake, MB, as a hairdresser. She and Tom met through snowmobiling with her brother, Roy, and they were married in 1969 in Clear Lake. Tom and Mary built their home in Portage in 1972, the same year Debra was born. Mary enjoyed snowmobiling trips to their cabin in Spruce Woods and the Fox’s farm, as well as their annual trips to Yellowstone, putting on thousands of miles over the years. Mary enjoyed travelling with Tom, making numerous trips coast to coast, all over Canada and the US. In later years, Mary and Tom spent a few months each winter in Yuma, AZ. Mary and Tom also loved camping with the Yellow Quill Good Sam Club in their fifth wheel trailer, which was nicknamed “Mary’s Tin House”. When they weren’t travelling, Mary loved her garden. She usually had a bumper crop, causing Tom to be constantly giving away tomatoes and potatoes. She also enjoyed canning and pickling and baking bread. For many years, Mary was very involved in the La Prairie Lioness Club, participating in many projects. Mary loved her grandchildren and was involved in every stage of their lives. She never missed an opportunity to be with them, even if it was sitting in a frigid arena or on the sidelines of the soccer field in the rain, cheering them on. Mary’s celebration of life will be held at the Herman Prior Centre on Wednesday, October 12, 2016, from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. As expressions of sympathy, if friends so wish, donations may be made in Mary’s memory to the La Prairie Portage Lioness Club, 104 Meighen Ave, Portage la Prairie, MB R1N 3S4 or STARS - Winnipeg Base, 155A West Hangar Road Winnipeg, MB R3J 3Z1. A tree will be planted in memory and cared for by McKenzies Portage Funeral Chapel. 204-857-4021 www.mckenziesportagefuneralchapel.com

Dad loved company, whether it was the grandchildren spending summer holidays or neighbours/friends stopping in for a coffee or a drink! He loved a good game of cards (canasta), miniature golf, horseshoe, can can, badminton, snowmobiling & biking. He had a passion for farming and carpentry and built all of the farm sheds, barns and garages. Everything had to be done with precision. There will be a prayer service held on Thursday, October 6, 2016 at 7:00 P.M. at Clarke’s Funeral Home, Gladstone, MB. A Roman Catholic Funeral Mass will follow on Friday, October 7, 2016 at 11:00 am at the United Church in Plumas, MB, with interment at the Plumas Cemetery.

Although you will leave a huge void in our lives, today we celebrate a life well lived. You were a wonderful role model, husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. We will forever miss you! A special thank you to Dr. Swanepoel and staff at the Glenboro Personal Care Home. Your care and devotion to Dad over the last few years was very much appreciated.
