HILDA GAGELMANN
(nee Seitz)
January 14, 1921 – May
27, 2013
It is with great sadness that we
announce the passing of Hilda Gagelmann at the Golden West Centennial Lodge.
Hilda is survived by her son Joerg
(George) Gagelmann of Winnipeg; granddaughter, Terri-Lynn Delany Ferguson (Kim)
of Vancouver and Grant Delany (Marion) of Pinawa. She was predeceased by her
beloved daughter Sabine in 1992 and her husband of 54 years, Herbie in 1998.
Mom was born in Karlshafen, Germany
and survived WWII there. She married Herbie Gagelmann in January, 1945 and
immigrated to Canada in 1954. The family settled in Winnipeg where they
provided a good life for their two young children. Hilda and Herbie left
Winnipeg in 1979 to retire in Inwood, MB where they stayed until Herbie’s ill
health forced a move back to Winnipeg.
Hilda loved to garden and do every
handicraft under the sun; she was the ultimate seamstress, making all her own
clothes until her arthritis and failing eyesight made it too difficult to continue.
She spent her last two years at the
Grace Hospital, Oakview Place and Golden West Centennial Lodge. Hilda was an
outspoken, stubborn and extremely feisty lady to the very end! Grateful thanks
is extended to all those who cared for my mother.
In compliance with Mom’s wishes;
there will not be a Funeral Service.
Flowers are gratefully declined.
