We are saddened by the loss of Susan Brechmann at the age of 50.

 

Susan was born in Killarney, MB to Ferne and Leroy Ramsay. She spent her early years in Crystal City, MB, moved to Swan River, MB in 1983 and Brandon, MB in 1990, where she met and married Adam Brechmann. They moved to Winnipeg, MB shortly after marrying and made Winnipeg their home for the next 18 years. 

 

Susan’s passing is mourned by her husband Adam; her brother Michael (Jackee) Ramsay; sisters, Karen (Larry) Isham, and Sheryl (Don)Charleton; step-mother Mabel Ramsay; step-sister Christina (Kevin) Steele; step-brother Kelvin Berehulka, as well as many nieces, nephews, and friends.  She also leaves behind step-father John Fawcett and his family.

 

Susan was predeceased by her parents Ferne and Leroy Ramsay.

 

Susan was a kind supportive and caring person who enjoyed spending time with her family and friends, especially her nieces and nephews. She loved cats, movies, going out to dinner, playing board games and crafting.

 

She was proud of her years teaching, especially when contacted by former students who told her what a difference she had made in their lives. Unfortunately, Crohn’s disease sidelined her teaching career and she battled it for nearly 30 years until it took her life.

 

The family would like to thank the staff of 7A West at St. Boniface Hospital for the wonderful care given to her in the last 10 months that she was in hospital.

 

Cremation has taken place and the family has chosen a private interment.
