KIMBERLEY LACHUTA

(NEE COSTIK)

After fighting health problems courageously for many years, Kim left this world suddenly at Riverview Health Centre on April 19, 2020 at the age of 57. She will be looking over her daughter Tiffany from above, as well as her much loved parents Harry and Diane Costik, her sisters Lisa (Don) and Corinna (Barry), her nephews Max and Tyler, and the hundreds of friends worldwide whose lives she had a positive impact on.

Kim was fearless, spending her life following her passions and working tirelessly for causes? she believed in. From travelling the province fundraising for the MS Society, helping the? Boys & Girls Club, Child Find Manitoba, co-founding the Manitoba Blues Society, trailblazing the regulation of crop stubble burning in the prairies, and tutoring students in mediumship, Kim changed the world around her for the better at every turn.

Her family would like to thank the staff at Riverview Health Centre for the special care and compassion she received from them in the last few months before her passing. She meant it when she said that residing at Riverview was like “heaven on earth” for her.

The only thing that outshone Kim’s tremendous faith was her generosity for charities that she gave to regularly, including Siloam Mission. In lieu of flowers, her request was for loved ones to donate to a charity that touches their heart in her honour.

A private service for close friends and family will be held in the early summer.

A FINAL FAREWELL FROM KIM:  

To my friends and family – It’s been a great ride. Thanks for sharing it with me. Luv ya!
