Obituary of Cheryl Falk
Cheryl Lynn Barbara (Leach) Falk
July 26, 1959-June 1, 2022
With her loving daughter, Sharon, by her side, Cheryl Lynn Barbara (Leach) Falk passed away at the Brandon General Hospital on June 1, 2022. Cheryl was born in Winnipeg, MB on July 26, 1959 and received her education there, graduating from River East Collegiate in 1978.
On January 3, 1987 Cheryl married Victor Falk at a beautiful outdoor ceremony in Bird’s Hill Provincial Park. They resided in Winnipeg where their child, Victor, was born. A short time later they moved to Brandon where they resided until their passing.
Cheryl was pre-deceased by her husband Bernhard Victor (Vic) Falk and their infant son Victor (1988). She is survived by her daughter Sharon (Damian) Falk-Hamilton, grandchildren Lyndsey, Savannah and Benson Hamilton, sisters and brothers-in-law Gert and Hank Neufeld of Stonewall and Sandra and Dave Falk of Portage la Prairie, numerous nieces and nephews and their families. She also leaves behind her furry friend Olaf, who her grandchildren have quickly adopted.
The death of their child, Victor, deeply affected Cheryl and she embraced the role of mother when they adopted Sharon Ann in 2009. She relished the additional role of grandmother to Lyndsey, Savannah and Benson. Cheryl was devoted to her grandchildren and loved being part of their lives. Times were spent at Grandma’s house baking and doing crafts and the appearance of a grandchild at the door brought a special light to her eyes.
A celebration of Vic and Cheryl’s lives will be held on Sunday, June 12, 2022 from 2:00 - 4:00 p.m. at Shady Lane Tea Room, Trans Canada Hwy, east of Brandon. The format will be a come and go reception but for family and friends wishing to be there, a brief program will be held at 2:30 p.m.
Donations in Vic and/or Cheryl’s memory may be made to the Brandon Humane Society, 2200-17th Street East, Brandon, MB, R7A 7M6 or to Funds for Furry Friends, 740 Rosser Ave Suite 208, Brandon, MB R7A 0K9.
Grieve not for me.
Remember the best times
The laughter, the song
The good life I lived while I was strong.
