ANNE GREENING December 7, 1924 - June 1, 2012 Anne Greening passed away at Selkirk and District General Hospital on Friday, June 1, 2012 with family at her side. She is survived by her daughters, Kathy Martens and Carol (Ian) Brand; sons, Grant (Shirley) and Greg (Elaine); brother Bill (Lois) Patryluk; grandchildren, Keith (Duncan and Julianna), Kurt and Colette (Abygail), Korey (Brentten and Sierra), Karen and Guy (Colton and Kyle), Alexandra and Joel (Brodie), Eric, Shane, and Alex, as well as Erin and Patrick, Megan and Darreld, (Hailey and Emily) and numerous nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her husband of 51 years Arnold, son Edward and son-in-law Bill. Anne was raised in Winnipeg, moving to the Libau area as a young woman. She embraced country life and it is there that she met and married Arnold and raised their family. Their home was always open to friends and family, and there was always plenty of food to feed all that visited. Cooking was always a joyful experience with many hands working together and stories being told. The family would like to express their heartfelt thanks to those that cared for her, staff at Selkirk General Hospital, Dr. Lindenschmidt, her homecare girls and Colleen from the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. A memorial service will be held on Thursday, June 7, 2012 at 1:00 p.m. at the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Selkirk. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to a charity of your choice.

Anne was my client for 12 and half years. Twice a week I would be with her and we discussed the news of the day and the state of the world! I was heartbroken that I missed her funeral and was not able to pay tribute to her . I will miss her dearly ! She was a great lady! - Posted by: Lucy Pachkowski (Heath Care Aide) on: Jul 27, 2012

We take the sorrow of Auntie Anne's passing and replace it with the joy of having shared her life. We have enough pleasant memories to fill books. I would come out in summer, at Mom's house on Kildare Ave. I would BBQ a Sockeye Salmon in the back yard. She and Uncle Arnold would come out from Libau for the fish and family. Uncle Rudy (I made sure there was 2 kinds of diet pop for him) and Auntie Anne came too. It was giving back as that kind of love can only be repaid by love. When it comes to extended family you never had to extend far to reach her. She left with our love in her heart. More importantly she left her love in ours. In this time of sharing sorrow, we look to memories on the morrow. We will see her smiling face, in the most unexpected place. In the midst of daily deeds, we will place loves memory seeds. Gone but forever here. I wish that I could have been there to share what is shared with me... - Posted by: Gerald P. Gajausky (Nephew) on: Jun 09, 2012

We are thinking of all of you at this sad time, but we are also remembering all of the happy times. Visiting Aunty Anne and Uncle Arnold was part of growing up, for both generations. Even when we came to Man. from B.C., our visit was not complete without a visit to the farm. We were always surrounded by family and love when we were there. The centre of that was Aunty Anne. Her family was the most important part of her life; she took care of all of us and we will always remember her for that. Goodbye, dear Aunty Anne. We will never forget you. - Posted by: Lorraine, Nathan, Reesa, and Justin (niece and family) on: Jun 05, 2012
