"Mom, Oma, Cisca, Tante Cis" was the matriarch of our family and lived up to her role with fervour, class and style. Her life was filled with many challenges, all of which she faced with courage and dignity. Her support to family in time of need was unparalleled. In 1960, as a recent widow, Frances followed her three siblings, Piet, Martien and Dora and emigrated from Holland with her four sons. She travelled extensively with her favourite companion, her sister and best friend, Dora. Their stories have entertained family for years. Tante Cis was famous for her poems and tributes at family occasions. The sound of her hearty laugh lingers as a most cherished memory. She loved to sing the Dutch songs, and with the slightest encouragement from family, had no hesitance taking centre stage. Even though legally blind, her passion for cards never diminished. Frances celebrated her 97th birthday just two weeks ago and as usual, accomplished it with style. It is a mark of her strength and endurance to note that she is the first in the Munsters family in 500 years to make it past the age of 90. Her mainstay was her family, especially her niece Peggy who was devoted to her care. Tante Cis cherished calls and visits from her grandchildren and especially the frequent visits from her only remaining son Peter. "Cisca, thank you for the wonderful example you set for us. Your gifts of love, laughter, and courage will always be remembered." The family would like to thank the staff at Victoria General Hospital 3rd floor, especially Nicole and Paul for their outstanding care. Family and friends are invited to celebrate this very special lady's life on Friday, September 3 at St. Ignatius Church, Stafford and Corydon at 11:00 a.m..

SHIRLEY CHUCKO (nee DOERN) 1934 - 2004 On Sunday, August 29, 2004 at the Health Sciences Centre with her children and companion, Tom by her side, Shirley lost her battle with cancer. Mom was born icon November 12, 1934 to Otto and Marion Doern (Doskoch). She grew up in the North End and attended Margaret Scott and Isaac Newton schools.

She lost Dad, the love of her life, in 1978. This loss presented challenges that Mom met and overcame without complaint, taking life "One day at a Time". She re-entered the workforce, working at Success Business College. As grandchildren came along, Mom doted on them and looked forward to retiring and spending more time, sharing her love with them. In recent years Mom and her friend and companion, Tom Pickett, took many trips and enjoyed each other and life together. Early this year it was discovered that the cancer she had successfully fought previously, had returned. Although determined to fight again, the cancerous attack was too much to overcome. Predeceased by her parents, husband, and son Kerry, Mom is survived by her friend and companion Tom Pickett; sister Dorothy Chaykowski; sisters-in-law, Eleanor and Vera Chucko; and many nieces and nephews. Her children, Kevin (Debbie), Marianne; and grandchildren, Keith (Krissy), Allyson, Falin and Angus will miss her love very much. The children thank Tom for his unwavering devotion and for ensuring Mom was as comfortable as possible, and Aunty Eleanor and Eileen for their caring. We also acknowledge the efforts of the many physicians involved in Mom's care, especially the nurses and care givers at the Health Sciences Centre, wards GD2 and GH5. Funeral service will be held on Thursday, September 2, at 10:00 a.m., at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main St. Interment will follow at Elmwood Cemetery.
