Obituary Overview
Irene Dyck
On May 26, 2018 at 3:00 a.m. one of the
most beautiful bright stars left our world to join the others in the sky.
Irene Mary Dyck (nee Paul) lost her battle
with cancer and has now left us to join her mother Katie.
Irene was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba and
spent her youth growing up in West Kildonan with her mother, father and
brother. Irene married Lorne in 1975 and stayed in WK for seven years before
she and Lorne built a house in the Maples (which they still live in to this
day).
Because of Irene, that house became a home
to four boys (and anyone who walked through its doors). Mom and dad made the
decision to have mom stay home to raise the family while dad worked to provide
for us. Mom was always there to help, talk to us, encourage, support, and make
sure we had everything we needed and more.
Mom was the most generous person around who
never had anything bad to say about anyone (even if they deserved it). At
family dinners mom would always be the last one to eat, if at all, just to make
sure everyone was taken care of.
Mom loved spending time gardening in the
back yard which her and dad had created their oasis in, she loved to read,
watch the Jets win (and sometimes lose), and above all mom loved spending time
with her beautiful grandchildren. They were her pride and joy and kept her
young in heart and soul.
Instead of focusing on what we will not
have with mom, we’re focusing on all the amazing times we did have with her and
consider ourselves blessed to be born in to such an amazing family with so much
love and support.
Irene leaves to mourn her husband Lorne of
43 years and sons Paul (Lorrie, Lexa), Calby (Ashlee, Ava, Arleigh), Lyndon
(Katelyn, Ryker), Shane (Natalie), father William (Milly), brother William (Mary,
William Jr. Marco, Katie), sister-in law Mary Ellen (Haley), nephews, nieces
and relatives in Germany.
A special thanks goes out to Dr Seftel, Dr
Kansara, and the team at HSC’s GD6 for all their compassion, support and giving
mom hope.
Thank you to all mom’s friends and family
for all their love, support, and prayers over the past ten months. You’ve all
helped mom through the greatest battle of her life.
A service will be held Saturday, June 2,
2018 at 9:30 a.m. at Glen Eden Funeral Home, 4477 Main St.
In lieu of flowers the family asks that
donations be made to Cancer Care Manitoba.
