SYBIL
THURMEIER
(nee
LEACH)
Peacefully, on Thursday, June 27,
2013 Sybil passed away in Winnipeg at the age of 93 years.
Sybil will be sadly missed by
devoted son Rick (Sue); son-in-law John Wickberg; and grandchildren David and
Rena Wickberg, Sarah, Katy and James Thurmeier and dear friends Donna and Jack.
She will also be fondly remembered by the Sandalack family; Ron, Carol, John,
Alan, and by many other family and friends. She was predeceased by beloved
husband Jake; cherished daughter Janis and sister Dorothea (Sandalack).
Sybil grew up in Lampman,
Saskatchewan where she and her sister ran the local Post Office. There she met
Jake, and spent many hours touring in the side car of his motorcycle. Once
married, Sybil and Jake followed RCAF postings throughout Canada, settling in
Winnipeg in 1959. She enjoyed a satisfying career as a real estate agent in
Winnipeg. Sybil thrived on great times with family and friends, and especially
enjoyed her Silver Broom experiences with Jake (often including Rick’s thirsty
pals).
In compliance with Sybil’s wishes,
no formal services are planned at this time. Her Interment will be held in Chapel Lawn
Cemetery.
Special thanks to the incredible
care team on the second floor of Oakview Place. Their caring, compassion, and
genuine connection with Sybil was of tremendous comfort.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be
made in Sybil’s name to the MS Society, 100 – 1465 Buffalo Place, Winnipeg, MB
R3T 1L8.
