Mavis passed away on January 22, 2012 at the age of 75 years with loved ones by her side. Born in Bankend, Sk, on March 27, 1936, Mavis lived most of her life with her parents. When they moved into Menno Home nursing facility in Abbotsford, Mavis made the move as well. She made one last move into Cascade Lodge in Chilliwack, BC to be closer to her sister.
