  • Notes 
    • GERBER, Norma Arlene (nee Steinmann) February 4, 1930 - December 6, 2009 Peacefully with family at her side, Norma passed away at West Park Manor. With courage and grace, she accepted the gradual physical limitations of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP). Norma was born in Wellesley, ON. At the age of 11, her family moved to Baden. Here is where she met Stuart Gerber and they were married in 1951. In 1961 they moved to Winnipeg. Norma had a long career at Safeway retiring after more than 25 years in 1993. Norma was a kind and loving person who loved to be with her grandchildren. She enjoyed being with her grandchildren whether it was playing at home, outside or travelling to see them. She always took pleasure in each and every Christmas spending much time with them. Norma enjoyed camping with her family and loved tending to her flower gardens. She enjoyed making ceramics for her family and friends especially when they joined in and worked with her. She also enjoyed bowling for many years with Stuart and friends. Norma will be lovingly and sadly missed by her four children, Bryan (Laurice), Darrell (Sharron), Derrick (Debbie) and Melanie (Larry); her brother John and Clare and sisters Ruth and Irene. Forever cherishing her memories are her eight grandchildren, Michael, Lauren, Brent, Breanne, Bryce, Kathleen, Brittany and Tanner. She was predeceased by her husband Stuart, of 50 years, in 2001; her sister Nancy and parents, Enos and Clara Steinmann. The family wishes to thank the staff of West Park Manor for their continual care and compassion over the past four years. In lieu of flowers, donations made may be in her name to West Park Manor, 3199 Grant Ave., Winnipeg, MB, R3R 1X2. A funeral service will be held on Saturday, December 12, at 12: 30 p.m. at Chapel Lawn Funeral Home, 4000 Portage Avenue, Winnipeg. Interment will take place in Chapel Lawn Memorial Gardens with a reception to follow.
