GORMAN, Frances (nee Tkach)
It is with great sadness that the family of Frances Gorman announce her passing on Saturday, November 5, 2011, after a courageous battle with ALS. Born in Meleb, Manitoba, she grew up on a farm, became a school teacher, and later moved to BC where she raised her family and worked at Cara Flight Kitchen where she made many friends. She will be missed by all her friends. She will be remembered with much love by her children Danny, Wayne (Kelly), Randy (Tina), Alan (Linda), Rhonda (Bob); grandchildren Courtney (Alan), Travis; and great-grandchild Addison. She also leaves to mourn, her sisters Olga and Jennie and her nephew Tommy (Cheryl) and their children. She was predeceased by her parents Mike and Mary Tkach. The family would like to thank the ALS Society and the other medical groups for all their help and kindness. Private funeral arrangements by EVAN J. STRONG FUNERAL SERVICES. Graveside Service will take place at a later date in Meleb, Manitoba at the Parkside Cemetery. Photos, memories and condolences may be shared with Frances's family through www.evanjstrong.com .
