Obituary

Jessie Klassen (nee Friesen), age 93, of Steinbach, MB passed away peacefully on Sunday, October 21, 2018 at the Bethesda Place Personal Care Home, Steinbach, MB.

She will be lovingly remembered by two daughters Dorothy (George) and Jessie (Sonny); and four sons Harold (Mary), Cornie (Caron), Larry (Carol) and Melvin.

Mom was a hard worker and willing to help whenever needed. Mom and Dad were very involved with the Mitchell Seniors Centre and volunteered there for many years. Mom also loved bowling, camping and playing games. Her family meant a lot to her and we felt her love in all that she did for us and in her prayers for us.

We would like to thank the staff at Bethesda Place Personal Care Home for the wonderful care they gave our mom for the last nine years.
