It is with great sadness that the family announces our

Gladys is survived by her three daughters Gerri Krisa,
Emily (Fern) Scanlon Muriel (Don) Steedsman; six grandchildren and nine great
grandchildren-- Dean (Abby), Michael and Miranda Scanlon, Todd (Lucena), Jake and Deena Scanlon, Jay
(Karyn), Dillon and Brett Scanlon, Chris (Phirun) and Luanna Krisa, Kohbi Sadge
and Jeida Flor, Kasha and Kyla Krisa;
sisters Anne Samaniuk, Mildred Kalyniuk; brothers Matt (Jean) and Ernest
(Stephanie) Baydock; and many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her
husband Mike 20 years ago to the day; son Peter; sisters Doris Olynyk, Mary
Wolochatiuk, Elsie Michasiw; brothers John and Mike Baydock; and by her special
friend and sister-in-law Zenova Stefanishyn.
Born in Mears, MB, Gladys married on October 13, 1934.
Together they lived in Angusville and farmed until 1964 when they moved to
Winnipeg. Gladys was a very generous and supportive mother and grandmother. She
was fiercely independent and maintained her dignity to the end.

The family would like to thank the staff at Holy
Family Home St. Johns Unit for their compassionate and kind care they provided
our mother during the last nine months of her life.
