Gaye Bercina Lang

It is with much sadness that we announce the passing of Gaye Bercina Lang, on February 7, 2021, at the age of 89 at Country Meadows Personal Care Home.

Mom was born on April 20, 1931 in Neepawa, Manitoba to Fred and Coral Babcock. The family moved around but settled in Birnie, Manitoba.

Mom married Gordon Lang on August 11, 1951. They farmed and raised their family at Birnie, Manitoba.

Mom loved spending time with her family and especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Mom had a fun sense of humour and won people over quickly. She enjoyed cards, crossword puzzles, going to casinos, and played the piano beautifully by ear for years and could be found tickling the ivory keys up until a year ago.

Mom was an amazing cook and loved having the family home for holidays and special occasions. Mom loved her flowers and had beautiful flower beds, large vegetable gardens and grew all kinds of berries.

Mom loved to sew, and enjoyed doing many crafts over the years and the family still enjoys her crafts today.

Mom and Dad loved to travel and had taken many trips through the years to the southern United States, Alaska, and the Maritimes. They also enjoyed many campgrounds all through Manitoba.

Gaye was predeceased by her parents, Fred and Coral Babcock, her husband Gordon, sibling Dean Babcock, sister-in-law Dorothy Babcock, brother-in-law Hugh Fergusson, son Jim Lang, great-grandson Kayden Walker.
