MADELINE
WUERCH
(nee
HUPKA)
Suddenly but peacefully, Madeline
Wuerch of Winnipeg, passed away with her family by her side on Monday, May 27,
2013 at the Grace General Hospital at the age of 76 years.
Madeline leaves behind her husband
Donald of 54 years; sister Joyce Hupka; children, Dan Wuerch (Vicky Smith) and
Cindy Wuerch (Clark Kenyon); plus her beloved granddaughter Ellee Wuerch. She was predeceased by her parents Lena and
George Hupka, and brother David.
On August 28, 1936 Madeline was born
in Canora, Saskatchewan and grew up on a farm in western Manitoba. She moved to
Winnipeg in the 1950's and went to work for James Richardson. She met Donald in
Winnipeg and they married on May 9, 1959. They established their own mixed
farming operation near Starbuck, Manitoba and soon after had two children,
Danny and Cindy.
Madeline loved life and was very
inquisitive about the things around her. She really loved a good laugh and the
silliness that life had to offer. She loved to read and travel. Madeline’s
favorite thing to do was take the kids at Christmas on a vacation when they
were young. She was a real people person and she loved her job with UGG in
Fannystelle where she could visit every day with her farming neighbors as they
came to the elevator.
On Friday, June 7, 2013 Madeline’s
Funeral Service will be held at 2 p.m. in Westwood Community Church, 401
Westwood Drive.
In lieu of flowers, please send
donations to the Children's Wish Foundation.
