ADEENA
(DEENA) ALMA GAUDHE
(NEE
WEISS)
Quietly, in the early hours of
Wednesday, April 23, 2014, age 89, this amazing woman was granted her angel
wings and joyfully traveled to her forever home in heaven wrapped in the arms
of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. “For by grace you have been saved through
faith; it is the gift of God”.
With Deena’s passing we remind others
that her life is one to be celebrated. Although we will miss her every day, she
will forever remain in our hearts. Remaining to forever cherish Deena’s memory
are her two beloved daughters; Donna Barclay and husband Stan; grandchildren
Michael and Melissa Barclay; Wendy Holm and husband Brian; grandsons Cory Bell,
Jeffrey Bell and his wife Jessica Ross with great-grandchildren Jacob and Jewel
Bell; and granddaughter Rebecca Holm. She is also survived by two remaining
sisters Anne Barnes and Doreen Braiden; numerous nieces; nephews and close
friends. She was predeceased by her parents Wilhelm and Matilda Weiss; sisters
Esther, Adelma, Amy; brothers Leonard, Elmer and Leslie, all of whom she dearly
missed. It will bring Deena great joy to finally be with those loved ones that
have gone before.
Deena grew up in Winnipeg on Alexander
Avenue and later relocated to Sherburn Street where she lived in the family
home until she purchased her own home in Charleswood. Deena worked as an
executive secretary for the Red Cross Society for over 32 years with many
wonderful staff and coworkers. After retiring she took extreme pride in
her home where she loved gardening and sitting on the swing in the yard with
her much loved dog Jillie. She enjoyed watching her TV shows and was an avid sports fan, as well as being very artistic
especially with knitting, oil painting, needlepoint and paper toile.
In essence, Deena was a remarkable
amazing woman. A single mother in the 50’s was never easy but she managed
to constantly display her strength and determination to improve her situation
and she did just that. Stubborn, strong willed and fiercely independent, a
strong yet loving unstoppable religious spirit right to the end. Deena was the
most loving Mother, Sister, Daughter, Nana, Auntie and loyal friend. Deena’s
two daughters would like to thank all those wonderful family and friends who
visited. Your visits gave her much cheer and comfort. Special thanks to
Theresa, Linda and Barb for being her good friends and confidantes for so many
years.
You
are in a better place now. The gifts you have given to each and every one of us
are ours forever, your countless stories, laughter, words of wisdom, the
memories you created for all of us, and always your unwavering love. You are in
our hearts forever and we will love you always. A private family Interment
will be held.
