DEBORAH LOUISE BERFT (nee KRAHN) August 27, 1960 - November 4, 2015 (Change in Date of Service) It is with profound sadness, after a two year battle with cancer, that the family announces the passing of Debbie, our precious wife, mother and auntie. Left to cherish Debbie's memory are her husband, Hugh of 31 years and son Brett; mother Ellie Krahn and stepfather Brian Finlay; sisters Kim (Don) Chroniak, Terry (Rick) Fast, Lezlie (Greg Michie); brother Blake (Connie); many nieces and nephews; her in-laws Norman and Violet Beft; sister-in-law Donna (Walter) De Groot. She is predeceased by her father John Krahn in 2005. Debbie enjoyed life to the fullest, she loved their place at the lake spending many happy summers, boating, fishing, quading, snowmobiling and knitting. She was a very social, fun loving person with always a smile on her face. Her husband and son were her life, family and friends came in a close second. Whether good or bad, Debbie faced her challenges with a strength that most of us do not know or understand. What an example Debbie has set for all of us. Special thanks to Dr. Clifford Yaffee, Tracey and her team for their tender care on 7A West and St. Boniface Hospital. A celebration of Debbie's life will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, November 12, 2015 at Glen Lawn Funeral Home 455 Lagimodiere Boulevard. You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back or you can do what she would want; smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
