Later they opened their hearts and home to two brothers, whom they accepted as sons. For their retirement years, they moved to Steinbach. A year after Dad died, Mother moved into Maplewood Manor. At the age of fifteen, she yielded her life to Christ and was baptized into the church of God in Christ, Mennonite. She was faithful to God till the end. She had a deep concern for her family and appreciated everyone. Her love was unconditional. Mother was of a reserved nature, diligent and dependable.
