Noreen Faith Gerbrandt

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Noreen Faith Gerbrandt on February 4, 2015. She had been living with metastatic breast cancer for almost 10 years, but she never saw her years with cancer as battling the disease or losing the battle to cancer. To Noreen, the cancer was living with her and she lived her life accordingly, in spite of having to schedule everything around her treatments.

Noreen leaves behind her children Jeffrey, Gregory, and Daniel & Janice Reimer, her grand-dog Boscoe, her beloved sister & friend Marilyn Gerbrandt, and her beloved friend Maria VanLeusden.

Noreen was born January 3, 1958 in Steinbach, Manitoba. She lived in Steinbach for many years and it was there that she gave birth to her 3 wonderful boys Jeffrey, Gregory and Daniel Reimer.

She was predeceased by her father Walter Gerbrandt in 2000 & her sister Grace Bartel in 2012. She also leaves behind her mother Tina Hiebert, sister Shirley Klassen, brother Ken Gerbrandt (Virginia), sister Carol Guenther and sister Brenda Funk.

We extend special thanks to oncologist Dr. Lorne Brandes, Kathy & the nurses in Cancer Care & the medical staff & aides at HSC MICU GA-4.

A Celebration Service for Noreen will be held on Tuesday, February 10, 2015 at Thomson “In the Park” Funeral Home on 1291 McGillivray Blvd., Winnipeg.

Noreen requested that, in lieu of flowers, “do one kind deed for someone else.”
