It is with great so that sorrow that we announce the peaceful passing of Heather Lynn Tower (nee Taylor) on November 29, 2024 at the age of 75 with family by her side. Heather was in 1949 in Winnipeg to parents Joseph Dean Taylor and Eileen May Taylor (nee Rickner).
She grew up in Winnipeg and spent many of her summers at Grand Beach, Manitoba with her family and it was there that she formed her love of the water and the beach. She also loved her gardening and flowers as well as line dancing. In 2008 she was introduced to scrapbooking and it was game on from there. She spent many Friday nights with her best friend Claire scrapbooking for hours.
In 1967, she met the love of her life Bob Tower. They married in 1969 and were married for 55 years. Their first daughter was born in 1970 and they welcomed their second daughter in 1973. They became grandparents in 2001 and again in 2003.
Family was so important to Heather and she could often be found watching her girls and grandchildren do what they loved to do – Sporting events such as curling, basketball, volleyball, track and field, bowling, and soccer as well as band and choir concerts, plays and school functions. She was by far their biggest cheerleader
Heather and Bob loved to travel taking a month long anniversary trip to Europe, as well as a trip to the Dominican and to Cuba. They also began spending winters in Texas with their family.

Left to mourn her are her husband of 55 years Bob Tower, daughters Tammie (Walter), Sandi (Larry) and grandkids Brayden and Lexi, brother Joe, Brother In Law Brian and Sister in Law Louise as well as many other extended family members.
