RICHARD WOJCIK WINNIPEG FUNERAL DIRECTOR - CATHERINE McKENZIE FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS
CATHERINE ELAINE McKENZIE
Peacefully,
after a courageous battle with cancer, it is with deep regret that we announce
the death of Catherine Elaine McKenzie on Friday, February 20, 2015 at the
Grace Hospital at the age of 71 years. She is survived by her husband, Donald
McKenzie; sons, Russell (Kimberly) and Ian; grandchildren, Katelyn, Taylor and
Ryan McKenzie; as well as by sister, Donna Miller (Ken).
Elaine was born
in Oxbow, Saskatchewan on June 2, 1943 to Janet and Russell Hodgson. She
accepted Jesus as her Savior on July 19, 1960. She moved to Winnipeg after High
School and attended the Angus Business College. Elaine married Donald McKenzie
in 1974 and celebrated their 40th Wedding Anniversary last August at
the Revolving Restaurant. Elaine was involved with the Parkview Gospel Hall,
previously West End Gospel Hall, for over 50 years. She was very proud of her
two sons and as most people know she had a special bond with Ian. Elaine
enjoyed entertaining, caring for others, and spending time with her family. Over
the last few years she has enjoyed going on cruises with her sister,
brother-in-law, husband Don and son Ian. Elaine and Don, with their son Ian,
also spent many hours touring all over Canada and the United States by
automobile. Gathering as a family was very important to Elaine and she made
sure that holidays included her immediate and extended families. One of her
greatest joys was spending time with her three grandchildren. She always made
sure she had fresh jelly beans for whenever they were over. She was very close
to her sister Donna and they spent countless hours on the phone, enjoying each
other`s company, and sharing inside jokes. She had such a great sense of humor
and was always able to find the joy in life. Elaine always found the good in
people and always had time to share fellowship over a cup of tea.
The Funeral
Service will be held on Thursday, February 26, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. in the
Parkview Street Gospel Hall, 234 Parkview Street, Winnipeg, Manitoba. Interment will take place in the Carberry
Plains Cemetery, Carberry, Manitoba.
A special
thank-you to Dr. Pat Harris and to the Grace General Hospital staff for their
care and compassion.

flowers donations can be made to the Grace Hospital Foundation.
