Lawrena Joan Lenfesty (nee Clark) entered into rest on April 30, 2009 at the age of 61 years, after a courageous endeavour fighting pancreatic cancer. She was predeceased by her father Lawrence Hubert Clark in 1966, mother Katherine Helen Clark (nee Gilmore) in 2004 and sister Sandra Helen Sagin in 2009. She will be deeply missed by husband Wayne, daughter Angela Morasch (Clint), grand daughter Laurie, grandson Layne, daughter Jody Heidinger (Jason), grand daughter Emily, nieces Karen Crudden and Donna Sagin, brother-in-law Wayne Sagin, parents-in-law Doug and Julia Lenfesty, sister-in-law Corrine Lenfesty, aunts Jean Middleton and Pat Gilmore, and many cousins and countless friends. Joan enjoyed life and all the people who made it worthwhile. In the last few months she spoke often about how it made her feel to have to leave everyone. More than anything, she worried about anyone being sad. Although hard to expect, she wants us all to know it would be her last wish for us all to celebrate her life in a way that she lived hers - believing in and living as Jesus wants us to, living happily, without regret or sorrow, without jealousy or ignorance. Always be kind to others and never hold a grudge. And never take for granted a cup of coffee with friends. The family would like to express their sincere gratitude to Dr. Butler, Dr. Smith, and all the staff on the third floor of the Assiniboine Centre in Brandon, for their kindness and caring. Also a big thank you to all those who sent flowers and cards and visited; your acts of kindness brightened Joan’s days and are greatly appreciated. Interment was held at the Carberry Plains Cemetery on Tuesday, May 5, with a Memorial Service following at First Presbyterian Church, Brandon, MB. Donations can be made to The Canadian Cancer Society. To read more about Joan’s life journey, or to send condolences, go to www.memorieschapel.com. 20p
