Obituary of Diana Joan Reimer
It is with a great sense of loss that we announce the passing of Diana Reimer, beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister and aunt, on Saturday, September 14, 2024.
Diana was born on November 4, 1930, the first child to Henry and Anne Toews in Steinbach, MB., and was predeceased by them, as well as her husband, Clifford, her brother Melvin, niece Marjorie, and granddaughter-in-law Lauren.
In 1951, Diana married her shy, farm boy sweetheart, and in 1959, as a young wife and mother, Diana moved with her husband, Clifford, to Panama as missionaries. She left the familiarity of her home and embraced the challenge of a new culture, climate and language.
She was the quiet support behind the ministry that led them there, initially establishing a school for missionary children. They were also involved in church planting and Bible study. They lived and raised their family in Panama until 1978, at which time they moved back to Steinbach. Diana moved again when Clifford’s new role in the mission took them to Kansas City, Missouri to work out of the Avant Ministries (GMU) headquarters. On his retirement in 1995 they relocated to Winnipeg, where she lived until her death.
When Clifford died in 2007, she once again embraced a new life, seeing that she was not alone in her situation. She became a friend and support to many of the women around her.
She was known as a prayer warrior by the congregants of the Fort Garry EMC and was one of a group of seniors who pray regularly for the youth. She left behind many notebooks filled with prayer requests and notations of answered prayers for the people she loved.
Her quiet and gentle spirit will be missed by all who knew her.
She is survived by her children Corinne and Melvin Klassen, Heather and Wayne Winser, Douglas Reimer and Mary Frederick, Keith Reimer and Marnie Munro as well as her grandchildren Paul and Mari, Jordan, Meghan and Jeremy, Michael and Joana, Joseph and Laura, Sarah and Juan, Morgan and Andrew, and Brenna, and nine great-grandchildren. She also leaves to mourn her younger brother Reg and his wife, Phyllis, four other sisters-in-law, two brothers-in-law, and nieces and nephews.
The funeral to honour her memory will be held on Friday, September 20, 2024, at 2:00 p.m., at Birchwood Funeral Chapel, Steinbach, MB., with interment prior to the service. To join the family via livestream, please click HERE shortly before the service.
