STEEDEN: Gwendolyn Marie. On July 11, 2018, Gwen passed away peacefully, surrounded by the loving arms of her family. Gwen was born in Wawanesa, Manitoba on June 25, 1935. She was predeceased by her parents Edith and Bob Fleming and her brother Tom. In 1951, Gwen met the love of her life, Jim, and they married on July 4, 1953. Daughter Shannon was born in 1954. The family embarked on a grand adventure in 1956 when they moved to Vancouver. Son Greg was born in 1957. Jim and Gwen enjoyed 25 happy years living in Vancouver and in 1981 they made the decision to return to Brandon where they have resided ever since. Gwen is survived by beloved husband, Jim, daughter Shannon, son Greg (Deb) and grandchildren Dwayne Moncur (Barb), Robyne, Shaun, Angela (Fred) and Thora Steeden. The family would like to thank the doctors and nursing staff on the 5th floor of BRHC. Their care and empathy helped us through a truly awful experience. Our community is very fortunate to have such wonderful caregivers. Thank you all so much! Cremation has taken place and following Gwen's wishes there will be no funeral service. Donations in memory of Gwen may be made to the YWCA Brandon, 148 11 St., Brandon, MB R7A 4J4.
