SUSAN GRACE YAKE

August 10, 1959 - November 12, 2025


With deep sadness, the family of Susan Grace Yake announces her passing on November 12, 2025, after a short and courageous battle with cancer.

Susan is lovingly remembered by her partner, Bob; her sons, Sean and Braden (Maureen); her mother, Mary; her siblings, Joy, Mike (Cheryl), and Karen; her stepsons, Chris (Andrea) and Mark (Cassandra); and a large extended family of cousins, nieces, and nephews. She is predeceased by her father, Harland, and her brother, John.

Born on August 10, 1959, in Manitou, Manitoba, Susan was raised on the family farm in Snowflake as the third of five children. Growing up surrounded by wide-open fields, animals, and the steady rhythm of farm life shaped her enduring love of the outdoors and her lifelong connection to horses.

One of Susan’s greatest passions was horseback riding, and in 2010, she was able to make her dream come true of buying an acreage with Bob and her own horses. She also found joy in sewing, especially in creating beautiful quilts for her family.

Susan will be remembered for her calm strength, her deep devotion to family, and the unshakeable kindness she offered to everyone she met.

A private service to honour Susan’s life will be held for close friends and family.

Her presence will be deeply missed, but the love she shared will carry on in all who knew her.
