EDNA ELEANOR CUMMER
And
so on Wednesday, April 2, 2014 we said goodbye to Edna Cummer....wife, mother,
grandmother, great grandmother, great great grandmother, sister, aunt, mentor
and confident. A woman of great
capacity, family historian and keeper of the lighthouse in the storm of
life.
Edna
Eleanor Cummer was born the youngest of eight children to George Wiebe and Mary
Derksen on October 25, 1926 in Morden, MB.
She was married to Lloyd Westley Cummer on October 4, 1947.
Dad
predeceased Mom in 2005, and she leaves to mourn her children: Cheryl (Alex),
Brenda, Donna (Rick), Randy (Pam), Jeff (Janet); grandchildren, Marlo, Curtis
(Laura), Leanne (Kevin), Carrie (Scott), Chad (Kristy), Candace, Jared, Teigan
(Peter), Jordan, Travis, Jennifer (Mark) and Katelyn; great grandchildren:
Skyler, Bree, Emma, Alexis, Tara, Braidon, Dylan, Tyler, Taylor, Cole, Copelyn,
Jack, Nora, McCarthy; and great great grandchild: Alizaya.
Mom
had many interests in her life. She loved music, dancing, bowling, playing
cards, scrabble and doing crosswords.
Mom and Dad camped and travelled extensively, enjoying life to the
fullest. She cherished the support of
her family and friends. Her home was open to all. Mom’s welcoming, nurturing spirit will be
sorely missed.
