EDITH SAGI (nee VASS) December 19, 1931 - September 29, 2017 It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Edith Sagi. She is mourned by her grandsons George (Kathleen) and Bill (Yani), great-grandson Dean and his mother, Lhen. She was predeceased by her husband George, and daughter Susan. Edith was born in Hungary where she received her degree in Chemical Engineering. She later immigrated to Canada with her husband and daughter in 1957. Edith spent her career as head of a Medical Laboratory at Winnipeg Health Sciences Centre. Edith was a deeply intelligent and independent person with a warm heart. Throughout her life, she enjoyed travelling the world with her husband and friends. She was a master bridge player and lover of arts and culture, especially the opera. After retirement, Edith and George spent their winters in Sun City Centre, Florida where they enjoyed time with close friends and family. Above all else in Edith's life stood her love for her family. We will be forever grateful for her presence in our lives. There will be no service at Edith's request. A Celebration of Life will be held on Thursday, October 12 between 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. at Thomson "In the Park" Funeral Home, 1291 McGillivray Boulevard. If desired, a donation in her name can be made to a charity of your choice. THOMSON "IN THE PARK" 204-925-1120 Condolences may be sent to www.thomsoninthepark.com
