Read More	Mary Plett (nee Reimer), age 87, passed away in the early morning hours of Saturday, September 10, 2016 at the Health Sciences Centre after suffering a severe stroke on September 6, 2016. Mary was surrounded by her family as she slipped into the loving arms of her Heavenly Father. Mary was born on April 19, 1929 in Ile des Chenes, MB, to Abram and Helena Reimer, the second youngest of 9 children. She was raised on a small farm in Landmark, Manitoba. She received her education in the Landmark/Blumenort area. Mary was baptized in the Blumenort Kleinegemeinde Church in May, 1948. Mom worked as a nanny and spent some time working in a cannery in St. Jacobs, Ontario. Mom was living with her widowed mother when Pete Plett came calling. They were wed on December 13, 1953 in Blumenort, Manitoba. They moved into a small house on a farm where Pete continued in construction while Mary took care of the farm chores. Our parents moved to Arborg, Manitoba, in October of 1961, where Mom was soon busy establishing a new yard on the farm they purchased. She loved gardening and spent hours tending her beautiful flower beds. Her pet peeve was the dog lying on her carefully tended flowers. She was active in her church and involved in the church sewing circle for many, many years. In 1985, our mother’s heart broke at the tragic death of their 21 year old son Alan, in a motorcycle accident. In 1988, Mom and Dad moved off the farm into a new house right next to the farm. Once again she enjoyed her new garden and flower beds and mowing the grass. Mom loved her grandchildren and lovingly doted on all of them. She read to them and loved serving them milk and cookies. Each grandchild had a special spot in her heart and she prayed often for them. We will miss how her eyes always lit up when any of her family came to visit. She also loved to quilt and each grandchild received a quilt as a wedding gift. In 1996, Mom suffered a serious stroke while visiting relatives in Mexico. Being a strong and determined woman, she made an almost complete recovery. Her hearing and walking, however, were affected after this. Mom and Dad moved to the House of Hope in Arborg in January 2012 as the yard work proved to be too hard for their declining health. Here Mom made many new friends including her home care workers. She rarely complained and met each care-giver with a beautiful smile and “thank-you”. In the last few years Mom enjoyed working on word search puzzles, reading Guidepost magazines and spent many hours reading her Bible. Mom has always been a godly role model and has left a legacy of faith and love for all of us. Her Bible was always beside her favourite spot on the couch. Left to cherish her memory are her husband Pete and six children: Glenn (Norma) Plett, Lorna (Milton) Loewen, Carol (John) Petkau, Ron (Sylvia) Plett, Beverly (Lowell) Stauffer, Gloria (Robert) Penner. She is survived by 45 grandchildren, 28 great grandchildren and one brother, Jake Reimer. She was predeceased by her two sons: Lesley James and Alan Roy and a granddaughter, Ramona Darlene. As a family we wish to thank Dr. Donaley for the professional care he gave Mom over the years, the home care workers, the staff at the House of Hope and paramedics, Kevin Petkau and Terrill Kerbrat. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away. May the name of the Lord be praised. The viewing will take place on Thursday, September 15, 2016 at 7:00 p.m. with a devotional at 7:30 at Birchwood Funeral Chapel, Steinbach, MB. The funeral service will be held on Friday, September 16, 2016 at 3:00 p.m. at Morweena EMC, Morweena, MB, with the interment at the church cemetery. Viewing also at the church prior to the service. The family is grateful for the care of Dr. Donnaley over the years, Mary’s home care workers and the staff at the House of Hope. Mary will be remembered for her legacy of love to others and faith in her Lord Jesus Christ.
