Obituary
After a courageous battle with cancer, ANGELA MARGRET LOUISE DONDO (née Barfoot) has returned home early to her Lord and Saviour at Notre Dame Health Centre with her family at her side. Born in Owen Sound, Ontario, December 18th, 1974. Angela had a passion for witnessing the Gospel to others. She left home at 17 to travel across Canada with a Christian mission group. It was during these travels that she first fell in love with Manitoba, returning on multiple occasions. After a chance meeting at the Winnipeg Airport Chapel, Jerome and Angela would begin a correspondence, an engagement, a marriage, and then, together, embark on the holy and intrepid task of having a family of ten children. Angela was outgoing, passionate, principled, loving, intuitive, and determined. Her life—although shortened—was a testament to the gifts and grace that God can bestow, to the love and tenderness a mother can provide, and to the purpose and meaning to be found in the service of others.
Angela is survived by her loving husband, Jerome Dondo, and beautiful children Joshua, Josiah, Jesse, Emily, Joseph, Jonathan, Joachim, Jathan, Lena, and Jamin. She is remembered by her siblings Scott (Debbie), Glenn (Leisha), Rebecca (Scott), and Patrick, her in-laws, Annette (Wayne), Rosemarie (James), Gerald (Edith), Yvonne, Aline (Peter), and Reginald (Erin). She will be missed by her parents David and Sonja Barfoot, her grandmother Eleanor Barfoot, her father and mother in-law Roland and Alice Dondo, as well as her many aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews. Predeceased by her grandparents Glen and Verna Barfoot, Donald and Margret Lane, and sister-in-law Lillian Dondo.
A ceremony to celebrate Angela’s life will be held December 21, 2019 at 11:00 am at the Wiliam Glesby Centre, 11- 2nd St NE in Portage la Prairie with Pastor Glenn Loewen officiating. Public viewing will begin at 10:00 am.
Interment will follow the celebration ceremony in the St Claude Cemetery, St. Claude, MB followed by a reception at the St. Claude Community Centre to which friends are invited.
The family would like to thank the all the medical staff in the cancer centre at the St. Boniface Hospital, and all the medical team at the Notre Dame Medical Centre for the excellent care they provided during Angela’s battle.
