Read More	My dear companion and our loving Mother, Marie (nee Toews) Giesbrecht was born on May 8, 1900, at Ste. Anne, Manitoba. She passed away peacefully at the St. Boniface Hospital, St. Boniface, Manitoba, at 10:40 A.M., on August 17, 1966, at the age of 66 years, 3 months and 9 days. She felt her lost condition and upon true repentance and confession of faith was baptized on Feb. 15, 1.916, becoming a member of the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite. On Feb. 6, 1921, she joined hands in holy matrimony with Henry P. Giesbrecht. This union was blessed with five children. Our dear Mother's health had failed her during the last five years. She had been under doctor's care constantly during this period of time and was hospitalized repeatedly. Although she suffered very much at times, she was always patient and hardly ever complained, in spite of having to go through lingering disease which proved to be incurable. She was very fond of singing. Then, too, we feel that we have lost a very loving Mother--one who was always ready to forgive. Although Mother went through many struggles and trials in her life, it appeared that through much suffering during her illness, she permitted our loving Saviour to draw her heart nearer to the heart of God. We would like to make mention of the fact that a special prayer meeting was held on her behalf on what proved to be the last Sunday of her life. We are firmly convinced that as a direct result thereof, our dear Mother's pains not only subsided, but left her on the following day. We are very grateful towards our great God for such an act of love. She leaves to mourn her departure, her deeply bereaved husband and four children: Myrtle and Aaron Grueger of Ste, Anne, Manitoba; Norman and Kay of Winnipeg, Manitoba; Dick and Nadia of Winnipeg, Manitoba and Kenneth at home. Also surviving are eight grandchildren and four brothers: Dick of Vancouver, B. C.; William of Winnipeg, Manitoba; John of Winnipeg, Manitoba; and Cornelius of Ste. Anne, Manitoba; also three sisters, Eva of Traverse, Michigan; Anna of Mount Lehman, B. C.; Katherina of Steinbach, Manitoba. One son, three brothers, and two sisters preceded her in death. MOTHER'S CALL The last mile of the way I have travelled, The last day of my life I have spent; I've gone to a place where awaiting, The beauties of Heaven content. Your homes I will never more enter, My children, I've bid you good-bye; I've crossed death's darkening valley, To Gloryland up in the sky. I'm looking your way, my loved ones, I trust when the roll call above; Not one of you there will be missing, To live in the realms of love. --The Family Funeral services were held in the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite church at Greenland, on Aug. 20, 1966. Min. John P. Dueck made opening remarks and led in prayer. Min. Dave W. Penner based his message on Psa. 126, and Ruth 1:16, 17. Min. Clifford Mastre made additional remarks and led in prayer. Interment in the adjoining cemetery, with Min. M. P. Barkman in charge. _________________________________________________________ Birth: 8 May 1900, Ste.
