VICTORIA
MAY LOUISE JOWETT
(HICKS)
We are deeply saddened to announce the
passing of Victoria (Vicki) Jowett on the morning of November 8, 2013 at the
Victoria General Hospital, at the age of 86 years.
Vicki is survived by her children; Diane
Roberts (Frank), Brian Jowett (Cheryl), Gordon Jowett (Kathy), and Barry
Jowett, sisters; Eunice Whitney of Kelowna, BC, Winnifred Poulin of Edmonton,
Luverne Spence (Don) of Winnipeg, and her grandchildren; David, Anne Marie
(Brett), Lisa, Michelle, Lee, and Michael along
with very special nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her beloved
husband Russell and brothers; Cyril, Raymond, and Johnny Hicks.
Vicki spent her childhood in St. Vital and
lived for over 50 years in Fort Rouge with her husband Russell, where she
worked at Scott’s Grocery followed by many years as a cashier for Safeway at
Kylemore and Osborne, as well as River and Osborne, until she retired in 1992.
In 2003 she moved back to St. Vital where she
lived with her son Barry who has been constantly at her side during her many
weeks in hospital.
Vicki avidly followed Coronation Street and
rarely missed and an episode. She attended Faith Lutheran Church and belonged
to the ladies quilting group together with her dear friend Marta Arndt, who
also recently passed away. She enjoyed Friday bingo with Marta and her niece
Joan Huth.
She cherished time with family in and around
Winnipeg as well as visits with her sister Eunice and niece Louise in Kelowna.
Vicki and Eunice enjoyed many wonderful trips and cruises together. She loved
to reminisce about these happy times.
Vicki was uplifted by the many visits from
family and friends during her time in hospital.
The family is very grateful for the excellent
care she received at Victoria General Hospital from the kind and caring staff
of 4th Floor North.
Funeral services will take place at Faith
Lutheran Church, 1311 Dakota St., Winnipeg, Manitoba, on Friday, November 15,
2013 at 11:00 a.m.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to
the animal shelter of your choice.
