Obituary:
MARTHA SAPER

MARTHA LYLE SAPER (nee MACNEIL) Martha was born July 4, 1944 in Winnipeg to Robert and Margaret MacNeil, and passed away July 2, 2014. She is survived and lovingly remembered by her husband Jim, daughter Marla (Scott), sons Matthew (Kelly), and Michael (Alaina and granddaughter Stella), brother Rob (Mardi, nephew Kevin and niece Kristi), and many dear friends. In her early years Martha was a high school athlete playing basketball and volleyball and was also a certified lifeguard. She was a graduate of the University of Manitoba in the faculties of Home Economics and Education. She used her knowledge to teach life skills to many young people. Martha and Jim were married on October 30, 1968 and enjoyed a happy marriage together. Martha considered her crowning achievement to be her children, granddaughter and grandsons to come, of which she was extremely proud. She loved them unconditionally to no end. Martha enjoyed life and people. Her homes in both Winnipeg and at Lake of the Woods were always open to family and friends. Her generosity and willingness to help knew no bounds. Martha loved adventures - whether camping, spending time at the lake, or travelling - most recently to Alaska, China, Africa, Florida and Mexico. Martha was always reinventing herself. She enjoyed gardening, sewing, cooking, working at the RWB Things Store, attending extension courses at the University of Winnipeg, and learning how to drive a Sea-Doo this past summer at the lake. Her annual holiday parties were legend and highly anticipated by family and friends all throughout her married life. A service and celebration of her life was held on July 4, 2014. Pallbearers were sons Matthew and Michael, brother Rob, and nephews Kevin, Ritchie and Shael
