Obituary of DONNA LYNN MALIK

Donna Lynn Malik

February 6, 1956 – January 12, 2022

 

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of our mother, Donna Lynn Malik on January 12, 2022 at age 65. She was the youngest of three daughters born to Donald and Olga Pike on February 6, 1956 in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Donna was predeceased by her parents; Donald and Olga Pike, her first-born son Jeremy Malik and grandson Carsyn Malik.

Donna lived a great life filled with lots of family memories and was the heart of the family. She was a single mother of three and consistently made sure her sons participated in everything they could. She always spoke so highly of her three sons but never hesitated to put them in their place; well into their 30’s.

Donna was a very proud grandmother of 13. She was particularly close to her granddaughter Jordyne. Buying her dresses, any dress Jordyne wanted from grandma, she got. Going to Teas at Transcona Legion together, camping, going to the beach and simply spending weekends together. She always spoke about Jordyne in the highest regards. She played an immense role in Jordyne’s life. They truly had a one-of-a-kind bond.

Donna enjoyed going to the Transcona Legion for Bingo with her friends and the Casino. She was a very sociable person. She was an avid coin collector and always needed another trinket or bobble for her shelf in the living room.

Donna leaves behind her three sons; Jameel (Regan), Adam (Cinthya), Joshua (Lisa). Sisters; Avril (Keith) and Jean, Stepmother (Godmother) Joyce Pike, Nieces and Nephews. Grandchildren; Julianne, Jordyne, Jeremy, Caitlyn, Anthony, Roxas, Blake, Alexzandre, Ava, Logan, Brody and Joshua.

The family would also like to send a special thank you to Dr. Kroczak (and team) at Grace Hospital, who tended to Donna in her final days. Along with the 2nd floor staff at Oakview Place Personal Care Home over the past few years.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, there will be a private viewing for immediate family only.
