Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryPENELOPE JANE (PENNY) KIESMAN
It is with great sadness the family announces the passing of Penny Kiesman, age 64, of Winnipeg, MB on October 20, 2023, at the St. Boniface Hospital.
Penny was born on February 7, 1959, in Ashern, Manitoba to parents, Elmer and Lydia Kiesman. She attended Moosehorn Elementary, Riverview Elementary and graduated from Churchill High School in 1977. She was employed at Great West Life as a Real Estate Analyst, retiring in 2015 after 37 years.
Penny loved her family, friends, the beach, sitting in front of the fire, dancing, animals, birds (not the crows), cooking, gardening, crafting, planning a party and a #22 for lunch. Penny was our rock and the glue that held us all together.
She would always touch base with everyone, taking the time for "just checkin in" our busy lives. Fond memories of times spent at Werner Lake, the Lake at Amaranth and the family gatherings at Penny and Neil's in Winnipeg will be cherished by all her family and friends.
Penny will be lovingly remembered by her husband Neil Friesen, her "six pack" of sisters, Priscilla Duly (Allan Bezemer), Francie Kiesman, Sandy (David) Sanderson, Sherry Kiesman, Louella (Maurice) Piche, Rhonda (Jason) Lilley, brother Trevor (Noelle) Kiesman, in-laws, Harold (Kathy) Friesen, Holly Kordus and Glen Friesen. She will be greatly missed by her many nieces and nephews.
Penny was predeceased by her parents, Elmer and Lydia Kiesman, her in-laws, Herb and Elsie Friesen, brothers-in-law, Tom Lesperance and Tom Duly and her special kitty Seger.
As per Penny's wishes cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will take place at later date in 2024.
If desired, memorial donations in Penny's memory may be made to the Riverview Health Centre, One Morley Ave., Winnipeg, MB R3L 2P4; Winnipeg Humane Society, 45 Hurst Way, Winnipeg, MB R3T 0R3 or the Peace Lutheran Church, Box 68, Moosehorn, MB R0C 2E0.

My condolences to Neil and the Family. I have fond memories of Penny from working at Great-West Life. Penny invited me on my first hot holiday to Cancun, Mexico. We had a blast! Penny organized everything that week. I joined her baseball Team at work too. Penny always made me feel welcomed and she was so kind and compassionate about everything she did. Rest in Peace Penny! Until we meet again. . - Posted by: Shannon Bilodeau (Co-worker at Great-West Life) on: Nov 02, 2023
