Obituary of HEATHER SUSAN ZILKEY

HEATHER SUSAN ZILKEY (nee TCHIR) November 19, 1949 - June 26, 2015 It is with immense sadness that we announce Heather's passing on Friday, June 26 at Riverview Health Centre. Heather was taken from us far too soon and will be greatly missed,and forever remembered by Ross, her husband of 32 years, close relatives and many cherished friends. She was predeceased by her mother Phyllis, father Michael and sister Myrna. Heather was employed by Air Canada over 30 years where her love for adventure grew and she formed many lasting friendships that continued on after her retirement. Her joy of travel was second only to her love for her family cottage in Grand Marais. Heather and Ross enjoyed entertaining friends and family at their Grand Marais home. Heather's outgoing personality collected friends whether she was bowling, at Red Hat activities or at the Seven Oaks Wellness Institute. Thanks to Dr. Susan Robillard for her years of care. Heartfelt appreciation to all the staff at Riverview Palliative Care 3E for their compassion and kindness looking after Heather this last month. Celebration of Life will be held at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main Street on Thursday, July 9 at 1:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, please donate to an animal shelter of your choice or CancerCare Manitoba.
