It is with great sadness we as a family announce the sudden passing, she shattered her sisters’ hearts losing her so suddenly.

Wilma grew up in Sapotaweyak, MB surrounded by her parents, sisters, grandparents, uncles, aunties, and cousins. She was raised by her grandparents Virginia and late Micheal Chartrand. Throughout her years she spent a lot of time with her mom in Dawson Bay, MB and The Pas, MB when she lived there. Wilma always loved to spend time with her sisters, they had a very close bond. Even when they grew of age to move away. After her mom passed, she took care of her sisters and cared for Arys. Wilma was always happy, loved to joke around with her quick-witted personality. She always made people laugh and smile. She loved her skirts and hats. Wilma enjoyed her kookums company who she was close to and always travelled with Viriginia, they shared many road trips. Wilma graduated grade 12 at NDKMS school and attended Winnipeg and Brandon for more schooling. Eventually she returned home and started working at the band office in Sapotaweyak, she was the first person you would see, welcoming you with the biggest smile.
