Obituary

Adina Plett Dyck was born to Peter and Helena Plett on January 3, 1941 in Blumenort, Manitoba. She passed away on Wednesday, November 13, 2019 at Boundary Trails Hospital, Winkler, MB.

Adina was the seventh of eleven children. At the age of seven, she moved, with her family, to Jagueyes, Mexico. She began her schooling in Canada and completed it in Mexico.

When Adina was seventeen, her family moved again, this time to Spanish Lookout, Belize. They were of the first Mennonite settlers to make Belize their home.

When in her teens, Adina gave her heart to God and God forgave her sins and accepted her as His child. She felt that God was a loving Father and a giver of all good gifts.

On January 10, 1960, Adina married Isaak Dyck. They shared nearly sixty years of life together. One son and nine daughters were born to them. Their son and three daughters died in childhood.

In 1982, we as a family moved to Rosenort, MB.

Mom was a homemaker all her life. She always kept a clean vegetable garden. She loved flowers and enjoyed playing Scrabble. She pieced hundreds of quilts through her lifetime, donating most of them to charity.

It was very important to Mom that her children and grandchildren be saved. She felt a lively hope to be with Jesus and a love for everyone. She also felt a rest and confidence in the Lord and guiding of His spirit.

She was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer a year ago. Dad devotedly cared for her throughout her illness.
