Obituary for Edith Motkaluk

Peacefully, on Monday June 22, 2020, Edith passed away with family at her side. She will be remembered with much love by her daughter Brenda; son Vince and his children Judy, Jaden and Jarod; daughter Barbara and her children Myles and Nolan.

Edith was a lively, social person who loved sports and played softball for many years. While working full time, she raised her children alone, supported them in sports and other activities, volunteered at Deer Lodge community club, and was very involved at her church. She was a member of the Winnipeg Press Club in the 90’s and was Secretary of the Schmockey Committee for a period of time.

Eventually she followed her heart and worked in the far north on the DEW line. She travelled to Europe, and to her bucket list destination of Australia.

Her adventures were slowed down over the past several years due to poor health, but she always pushed herself to the limit and she remained resolutely independent. Edith was a force to be reckoned with!

In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory can be made to the Manitoba Lung Association, 301 - 1 Wesley Ave, Winnipeg MB R3C 4C6 or the Heart and Stroke Foundation 1379 Kenaston Boulevard, Winnipeg MB, R3P 2T5
