It is with a saddened heart that we announce the passing of our dear mother, sister, aunt and friend. Our loss is Heaven’s gain as Gwen has been promoted into glory and into the arms of Jesus, and will be rejoicing to be reunited with her dear family members.
She leaves to mourn, her son Paul (Vancouver), sisters Gloria Nast (Penticton) and Joyce Tchir (Winnipeg), brother John Baxter (Winnipeg), nieces Evie (Fort Saskatchewan) and Tannis (Winnipeg) and nephews Daniel (Houston, BC) and Christian (Winnipeg). Also cousins and long-time friends. She was predeceased by her father John, mother Isabel, and brother Robert.
Gwen worked at different jobs throughout her life, including Winnipeg Photo and Wilson’s Auto Electric. She was a lifelong avid reader. While reading her books from her lovingly curated home library, she always had her signature hot cup of tea in her hand. She was an innate deep thinker and had a boundless interest in world politics and current events and could always be counted on to have stimulating, thought-provoking discussions on any of these topics. Also a talented, self-taught handywoman, she never met a home renovation project she wasn’t up for.
Gwen will always be lovingly remembered by anyone who crossed her path as a deeply caring, understanding and empathetic person. She had a devout and profound love for her Lord and Saviour. Fiercely independent, she marched to the beat of her own drum and was a fighter to the end.
“You have made known to me the path of life, you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.” Psalm 16:11
To quote one of Gwen’s favourite songs, “I’ll be seeing you in all the old familiar places. That this heart of mine embraces. All day through, I’ll always think of you this way.”
Loving you always and forever.
