LORNA KATHLEEN HARMS REMPEL With her husband at her side, Lorna Kathleen Harms Rempel, (born March 28, 1959), went to be with her Saviour on Thursday, April 5, 2018. She leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness and encouragement that inspired so many people. Lorna touched many lives through serving at the church, preparing food or baking and reaching out with thoughtful words of affirmation. Her love of books assisted others to find meaningful comfort for whatever situation they were dealing with. Her best friend and love of her life, Terry, along with their three kids, Steven, Lesley and Jamie (with husband Corey and son Eli) want her remembered for her love of people and her faith in God. Family was so important to her and she will be greatly missed by her parents, Henry and Tina Harms; siblings, Joanne Stein (Allan), Ken Harms (Alice), Nancy Rempel (Doug), and Andrea Harms (Paul); in-laws, Henry and Anne Rempel and Debbie Thiessen (nee Rempel); many nieces and nephews; as well as countless friends that were like family to her. Lorna's Celebration of Life will be held at Springs Church, 595 Lagimodiere Blvd. at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, April 14, 2018. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to Youth for Christ Winnipeg.

Condolences & Memories (8 entries)

  • Dear Terry and family thinking of you with sympathy and sadness on Lorna's passing. Due to a family matter neither Lindsay or I were able to attend Lorna's memorial service and missed the opportunity to personally extend our condolence to the family. Although time has passed my thoughts turn to you during this most difficult time and wish you peace and comfort in the days ahead. - Posted by: Lynda Ruban (friend) on: May 01, 2018

  • My condolences, feeling sadness as well. You're in my prayers. - Posted by: Charlotte Dubois (Friend ) on: Apr 17, 2018

  • To Terry and families, I remember Lorna as being Joannes' older sister. Growing up I saw her as a vibrant young woman who made time for everyone. It meant a lot to me when she came to our home when I was feeling very inadequate in my new role as a young grandmother. She was so at ease and she encouraged me, this I will always remember. - Posted by: Betty-Anne Georgeson (Friends from Crystal City) on: Apr 12, 2018

  • Rempel family, we are so sorry to hear about your loss. She was a beautiful person who was always there to help and give a word of encouragement. We have you in our prayers that God will give you strength and courage in this difficult time in your lives. We love you and want you to know that we are holding you up before the Great I Am. - Posted by: Jaime & Angela Rodrigues (Friends) on: Apr 12, 2018

  • I'm very sorry about your loss Terry and family. The Rempel family was very close to us. Along with the Rempel family Lorna was included. May God give you the comfort and assurance that we will meet again. Deloris Goerzen - Posted by: Deloris Goerzen (Friend) on: Apr 12, 2018

  • So sorry to hear about Lorna's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you! - Posted by: Peter, Betty Ann Reimer (Relatives from Port Rowan) on: Apr 12, 2018

  • Lorna and I grew up together in Snowflake, Manitoba as next door neighbours, and shared the same van that drove us to the Snowflake Elementary school. Within the closeknit Harms clan, we became better friends as we grew older and despite the fact that our family moved to BC years ago, we kept in touch. It is almost impossible to believe that such an energetic, loving, kind person can really be gone and I am going to miss her so much. May God grant his peace to her lovely family. - Posted by: E Joyce Kehler (First Cousin) on: Apr 12, 2018

  • Terry and families, I was so sorry to hear about Lorna’s passing. You have my Deepest Sympathy. She was a great lady, and no matter when I saw her , we always picked up like it was yesterday. I’ll never forget how she helped me out at the Springs Church when she worked at the book store. She found me many books to help me with my faith and also life. I will always remember her. - Posted by: Shirley Ammeter (Friend ) on: Apr 11, 2018
