Anne Toews (nee Dyck)
1930 ~ 2023
Anne Toews passed away peacefully on Wednesday February 1, 2023 at Boundary Trails Health Centre at the age of 92.
Anne was born on July 17,1930 to Jacob J. and Maria (Enns) Dyck. In 1950 she married Jacob Toews and together they raised 6 children. They lived and farmed at Bergfeld for many years. Anne was actively involved with the farm and always had a large, lovely garden. In 1993, Anne and Jacob retired to Morden. They made new friends and enjoyed their smaller yard and garden and continued to enjoy travelling and camping with family and friends. Anne's faith was important to her, she was a member of the Bergfeld and Morden EMM Churches. Jacob's passing in 2010 was a huge loss, however, she moved forward in life with quiet courage. She first moved into a condo in Vista Terrace and was able to maintain her love of gardening with plants on the balcony. In 2019 she moved to Homestead South where she was well supported and able to live comfortably until her admission to Boundary Trails Health Centre on January 9, 2023. In these years her greatest joys were the time spent with family and with her close friend Vi Schroeder.
Anne will be deeply missed by her family. She is survived by her children: Gerald (Linda), Carol (Wayne Benedet), Bob (Karen), Melvin (Jerri-Ann), Reg (Jen), Sheldon (Maureen Polischuk), as well as 20 grandchildren, 14 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren. She was predeceased by her husband Jacob, a daughter-in-law, and all of her siblings.
Our family is grateful for the good care, kindness and support mom received from Dr. Adri Botha, the home care staff and the staff at Homestead South. We would also like to thank Dr. Kim and the Boundary Trails Health Centre staff for their care of mom in the last weeks of her life.
